If they’re sent in, they’re going to fight in the manner that US troops are not allowed to fight: Scorched earth.

This is a BS term for mercenaries.
Its like calling illegal aliens undocumented immigrants. What are these people being contracted for? Security that proactively attack threats? These contractors are mercenaries - why is the United States of America employing mercenaries? Seems wrong - seems like you do that if the public doesn't support the war that "must" be fought.
