It's not news that U.S. corporations are profiting from the destruction caused by U.S. military actions, directly or indirectly (in #Gaza currently the demolition contractor is vassal/client state #Israel). This profit-making often occurs through military contracts, logistics, and reconstruction that follows war and occupation.
Taking #Blackwater and the Nisour Square massacre in #Iraq as an example, these "contractors" (mercenaries) operate in a legal gray area, with little accountability. Their actions, even accidental ones, could escalate the conflict. Not to mention it's an industry driven by profit, which incentivizes prolonging conflict, not ending it.
