Is money really the motive here when so much public money is spent so that we can continue to control the geo-politics of the middle-east + surrounding region for 'energy security' and so that private companies can profit from the energy exploitation?
It seems to me, a layman, that the motive could be legal or political instead.
- Brave-Steak 7y agoIf the argument is "he could sue", the justification would be something like there's a miniscule risk that a lawsuit could lead to a Supreme Court decision that puts their kidnapping, torture and black site policies at risk. I don't think money is relevant here.
