19. WHO is the Pentagon expecting to profit from this?
And why?

Is this a hedge fund? Halliburton can bet the oil wells will be destroyed...profit on the oil if they don't and on the bet money if they do?

Is this some form of kookie corporate war insurance? So our oil companies feel safe in the region? In the case of Halliburton and the oil, who are we expecting to take the bet? Who will be paying out if the oil is ablaze?

Who is the House in this card game?
