Shock And Dismay After Trump Pardons Blackwater Guards Who Killed 14 Iraqi Civilians

Blackwater guards, from left, Dustin Heard, Evan Liberty, Nicholas Slatten and Paul Slough were pardoned by President Trump this week. The former government contractors were convicted in a 2007 massacre in Baghdad that left more a dozen Iraqi civilians dead.

"We were surprised that the American President issued a decision to pardon these criminals, murderers and thugs," says an Iraqi man who was shot in the 2007 massacre at Baghdad's Nisour Square.
