Blackwater contractors killed 17 Iraqi civilians at Nisour Square, were convicted — then pardoned by President Trump — documented evidence
🟢 CONFIRMED

On September 16, 2007, Blackwater military contractors opened fire at Nisour Square in Baghdad, killing 17 Iraqi civilians and wounding 20, including women and children. FBI investigators concluded at least 14 of the shootings were unjustified. In 2014, four contractors were convicted — Nicholas Slatten received a life sentence for first-degree murder, three others received 30 years. In December 2020, President Trump pardoned all four, sparking international outrage. The UN called the pardons an 'affront to justice.'

What They Said Was Crazy
They killed 17 civilians — women, children. They were convicted. Then they were pardoned. That's American justice for war crimes.
