unintended consequence are understandable

counter-productive unintended consequences something else entirely

the trajectory as of now is that

(i) iraq, on iran's left, and below turkey, will be a failed state

(ii) afghanistan, on iran's right, below russia and above pakistan, will be a failed state

(iii) turkey, pakistan, and india will be infected, weakened, and failing

(iv) that be quite a few nuke-enabled and enabling states in that mess

(v) the new usa-enabled mercenary contractor class, connected to the failed and failing states, and with alumni spanning the globe, including the failed columbia and failing mexico, will more than likely to become a force on own, similar to goldman sachs and mckinsey & co, answerable to none except the highest bidders
