Blackwater is out of Iraq

Referring to my post about one year ago http://www.hellem.org/blog/index.php/new/2006/08/13/blackwater the company Blackwater is not thrown out of Iraq due to an episode where Blackwater employees killed eight people yesterday http://www.aftenposten.no/nyheter/uriks/irak/article1999145.ece.

A bit strange anyhow, that this episode have banned Blackwater from all of Iraq. My guess is that this is not the first episode, so why all of a sudden throw them out now? A bit more to be found on the CNN web page http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/meast/09/17/iraq.main/index.html I guess the most important thing to notice is that it is not yet confirmed by the Iraq government.
