Why hire a seperate comapny to deal with the security
of Iraq?
How many mercenaries are there?
It's the same reason not every company wants to act locally. If you act locally there is a greater risk of accountability. However, if you outsource, privatize and make up a complicated network of people just carrying out orders, it makes for less accountability. It's just another way to see our system is not at all about justice, but about control an domination. Those with power typically don't want to forfeit their place.
And there are always some willing citizen-soldiers and mercenaries to protect them.
