The Middle Eastern region has always been perceived by the US policy
makers as a sort of a backyard where “boys” are allowed to play with
their deadly toys without any fear of a possible retribution. The fact
that this region is rich in hydrocarbons and remains potentially
volatile as long as political and religious tensions are concerned, is
only making it even more attractive for Washington war hawks. Therefore,
along with the considerable military presence
that Washington has in this region, there’s a tremendous number of the
US military contractors operating in the region, that has become a sort
of retirement for those American soldiers who have hardened in battle
but failed to find their place in peaceful life due to the decline in
the US economy.
