Actually the task that Blackwater primarily does is VIP protection, or sensitive facilities, with the primary customer being the State Department, and thusfar have had 0 casualties for those that they've been protecting.

From that video, how do you know that was the polish ambassador or that those people were Blackwater. To me that video reminded me of a lot of Youtube stuff allegedly showing a ufo; Scripted, produced, and phony propaganda with a targeted audience. Sorry, my BS meter is off the scale.
BAGHDAD - A daring ambush of bombs and gunfire left Poland's ambassador pinned down in a burning vehicle Wednesday before being pulled to safety and airlifted in a rescue mission by the embattled security firm Blackwater USA. At least three people were killed, including a Polish bodyguard.
The attack, apparently well planned in one of Baghdad's most secure neighborhoods, raised questions about whether it sought to punish Poland for its contributions to the U.S.-led military force in Iraq. But Poland's prime minister, Jaroslaw Kaczynski, said his nation would not retreat "in the face of terrorists."
The attack came as Congress moved to update a law that has kept Blackwater and other private security contractors in Iraq immune to criminal prosecution.
So I guess the Polish PSD were not responsible for protecting him in the first place
