But they aren't doing any fighting, beyond the scope of defending themselves and their cargo/protectee. Now, if I start hearing about the Dyncorp Fifth Corps surrounding Najaf while the Blackwater Air Wing provides air cover, then I'll agree with you.

On the other side of the coin, I don't buy the labelling of the Iraqis killing American soldiers as terrorists. They are guerrillas. Now, those Iraqis that are targeting civilians, sure, they are terrorists, but I don't think you can necessarily lump them into the same bunch (like lumping together our US soldiers and Blackwater contractors).
