#1 The documents do not prove the government's argument that Blackwater was unprovoked. Nor do they prove that Blackwater was attacked.

Yup those strange .30 cal just appeared as if by magic, no reason to think they were attacked, nope, no evidence at all. (Moron investigators)

#2 yeah they also appeared lodged into a black water truck that was disabbled. now why would they disable one of their own vehicles in a situation where they could possibly be hung from the nearest bridge?

#3 I would need to go to the books but if the bullets are in fair condition the bullet weight and construction should not be the same between Nato and Soviet rounds. Jacket thickness, composition, shape, weight, ect. Our QC is fairly tight so I suspect someone is blowing smoke when they try to blame Blackwater using this evidence. Looks like prosecutorial problems (trying to prove guilt with no evidence) to me. Are these the same folks that charged the Haditha Marines?

#4 I wouldn't be too surprised if the Al Qaeda shot some of the bystanders as well.
