We are not trying to stop the civil war in Iraq, we are profiting from it!

Iraq is becoming one of the United States’ larger foreign military sales customers, committing some 1.6 billion (dollars) to FMS already, with the possibility of up to 1.8 billion (dollars) more being committed before the end of this year.

Not only that we are fomenting multiple civil wars in the Middle East to destabilize the region we are also positioning ourselves to make billions of dollars off of the ensuing bloodbath.

First, the United States is arming up different sides in multiple civil wars that could turn even more vicious in the coming years. Second (and more important to America’s strategic interests) billions of dollars of U.S. military assistance is going to some of the closest allies of America’s greatest rival in the Middle East — Iran. The Shi’a-dominated Iraqi national army and security forces could quite quickly turn their weapons against American troops and allies in the region.

So if we really do end up in a war with Iran our soldiers can look forward to being killed with American weaponry, again.

And we wonder why these people hate us.
