blackwater former state department official peter found beer and told us washington knew about their reckless and dangerous behavior the state department was so afraid of its mission in iraq being slowed down or delayed by replacing blackwater as a contractor that they were willing to accept almost any standards of behavior out of the company in order to continue the contract even though they understood it was detrimental to us aims blackwater was an organization out of control in iraq and we now have absolute proof that the state department who was supposed to control them knew that they were out of control knew that they were dangerous people knew that they were acting contrary to u.s. policy aims and did nothing. just weeks after the death threat a blackwater unit murdered seventeen people in the iraqi capital u.s. officials said that they were shooting without cause and that innocent lives were

8:38 pm
a government plea to stick to french products to stem the conscience decades long industrial decline the problem is that there aren't many products left these days that a purely french what really surprised me is how much food we import each time i see a foreign product i think it's crazy because it could have been made in front but it's not. but benjamin's biggest surprise was that shoppers probably don't know whether french flag goods are valid from. today's rules of the european union a crazy if you take the should for example and you just so the buttons in france you have the right to put a maid in from it it's the last operation the product undergoes that matters. even though it's not hard to find economic patriots like benjamin it is hard to support the french economy according to some experts the claim that when she's european commitments are opening the door to point competition force in french companies out of business. we estimate that in friends there's roughly one plant closing every
