Some of America’s most highly trained soldiers have worked on mercenary missions to kill prominent clerics and Islamist political figures in the Middle East, according to a BuzzFeed News report. Some of the hitmen sent out on assassination missions are said to have included a former U.S. Green Beret, former Navy SEALs, a former worker for the CIA’s “ground branch,” and a special forces sergeant in the Maryland Army National Guard. They were reportedly working for a private U.S. company—Spear Operations Group—and were hired by the United Arab Emirates to carry out politically motivated murders in the civil war in Yemen
