Blackwater's Midnight Gunfight with Insurgents in Najaf

Civilian contractors with Blackwater blur the lines between combatant and civilian as they defend themselves and their position for the second week in a row during combat operations in Najaf.


If you're familiar with combat footage at all, then you've more than likely seen the famous footage of Travis Haley, owner of Haley Strategic and father of Garand Thumb, on the roof of a building sniping at insurgent targets with his designated marksman's rifle. This video, is not that. This footage is members of Blackwater in some of the same positions defending their location in Najaf for the second straight week of constant gun-fights against Iraqi insurgents and members of al-Qaeda in Iraq.


For context, this footage was recorded on April 12th in the middle of the night. It features members of the Blackwater private security firm and the American Armed Forces working in tandem to repel yet another night of attacks during the Siege of Najaf.
