Här är lite statistik att tugga på:
http://www.counterpunch.org/scahill12182009.html
Ur innehållet:
“From June 2009 to September 2009, there was a 40% increase in Defense Department contractors in Afghanistan. During the same period, the number of armed private security contractors working for the Defense Department in Afghanistan doubled, increasing from approximately 5,000 to more than 10,000.”
Räknar man med all personal, har USA idag 189 000 människor på plats i Afghanistan. Av dessa är 68 000 USA-militär och 121 000 kontraktörer. 14 000 av dessa arbetar för USAID.
Redan i morgon kan truppen vara större ändå...
Sedan 2002 har USA spenderat 23 miljarder dollar på kontrakt i Afghanistan.
"According to one USAID official, the agency is “sending too much money, too fast with too few people looking over how it is spent.” As a result, the agency does not “know … where the money is going."
Detta samtidigt som vi idag vet att korruptionen i Afghanistan är ett av detr största problemen i landet idag, för att få fred i regionen!
"As for waste and abuse, the subcommittee says that the Defense Contract Audit Agency identified more than $950 million in questioned and unsupported costs submitted by Defense Department contracts for work in Afghanistan. That’s 16% of the total contract dollars reviewed."
Till detta skickar vi svenska soldater för att stödja???
