Who was the contractor that was killed? I have searched high and low and seen no reference at all to the actual name of the civilian contractor here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 170.218.219.22 (talk) 16:41, 7 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
His name was Nawres Waleed Hamid. He was buried on January 7th, 2020.

How is this incident a "crime"? Whether or not it was a good idea is another story considering how America escalated the situation afterwards (in that they didn't know conclusively if Kataib Hezbollah was the responsible party here and that they killed 25 people in their initial airstrike, after which KH openly denied responsibility for the K-1 attack), this is at face value an example of a paramilitary force targeting a military target, belonging to a power that many in Iraq believe is overstaying its welcome and becoming an occupying power again. So again at face value I'm not sure how this incident constitutes a "crime" under the circumstances.
Addendum that if it was ISIS like the Iraqi government says it was, it'd be a lot less sympathetic as they're Wahhabis who tried to destroy Iraq-- although it still wouldn't be a "crime" under the laws of war per se.2607:FEA8:A4E0:11EC:B445:5E05:E25:3AC8 (talk) 08:42, 5 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
