Contractors Ready to Cash In On ISIS War
2014-09-14
[Daily Beast] Champ pledged that the war against ISIS won't be fought with U.S. ground troops. He didn't say anything about contractors, who see this as "the next big meal ticket."

America's rapidly-expanding war against ISIS won't involve large numbers of U.S. troops on the ground, President Champ is promising. And it's clear that airstrikes alone won't beat back the extremist group. Which means that if the President wants to have any hope of meeting his far-reaching goal of destroying ISIS, he's going to have to rely on private military contractors.
All of which assumes he actually has a "far-reaching goal of destroying ISIS." I see no evidence to support such an assumption.
