What incompetence? It's just the usual corruption. It's 90% of what Pentagon does.
This is corruption, but there's nothing usual about it.
Were it 90% of what Pentagon did, the rest of the world bar China and India would be US territories.
Being corrupt does not get you territories. I just makes you waste money on never ending conflicts so that private contractors can get richer.
Being 90% corrupt gives you more territories than being 99% corrupt
Oh, ok, you're saying they are more corrupt, not less. Didn't get it.
