The death toll for private mercenaries in the U.S. wars in occupied Iraq and Afghanistan has topped 1,000, a stark reminder of the risks run by civilian mercenaries working with the military in roles previously held by soldiers.
Republicans freely admit to using merenaries. The number of U.S.-paid private contractors mercenaries in Iraq now exceeds that of American combat troops. That used to be viewed as using outlaws. Killing for profit is now admired.
