Superpower for Hire: Rise of the Private Military

[mother earth]

Profits are skyrocketing & these are the new frontiers of war. VICE brings us the info our own MSM never reports on,
the neverending war for profit.

"The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism - ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power. "

-Franklin D. Roosevelt

1. Might IS/ISIS/ISIL...

... be an Arabic or Islamaic version of a PMC (Private Military Company)?

2. With the money allocated for the MIC there is huge incentive to instigate and manipulate, taking

covert ops and deception to new levels. As this investigation shows there is no allegiance to country or government, many of the PMC hire from all over the globe, not just our own former military, and they work for anyone, any country, and the goal is money, law means nothing, this is the new frontier of war.

There will be no end to anything this powerful, so long as the money flows...one can easily imagine how many ways this system could be played, and nary a word is spoken, this is not the narrative corporate MSM will air. Not a word will be spoken by political candidates of either party. Listen and remember the figure being churned out to PMC's.

What I found most interesting was the statement that this kind of power could make a corporation more powerful than a country. Think about that for a moment. We want ALEC and Citizens United out of our politics, yet we invite this presence into our biggest budgeted expense, we pay more to private military than we do to our soldiers who at least have sworn allegiance and adhere to military conduct.
