Here is what we need to do:
Make ONE major city perfectly safe, surround it with barb wire and missiles - whatever it takes.
Invite in the venture capitalists to build roads, bridges, factories, schools, using whatever natural resources this place has (does it have any?)
Once it is a booming success (as capilaism always is) move onto the next city until you have an actual country that is viable.

Add to that a specific tax break allowing US companies to donate good useable recent generation equipment, if they replace that equipment with modern US built equipment.
Ship the donations to Iraq and Afganistan to jumpstart their productive output, (they don’t need state of the art labor saving equipment as they have low labor costs).
Say a company has a bunch of sewing machines and cloth cutters. Donate the used equipment, and buy the latest technology sewing machines and laser cutters, so the US company can reduce costs, or improve output. Ship the used sewing equipment to Afganistan, teach them how to design garments, how to cut and sew, how to market.
Teach the locals a trade, make money, gain pride.
Give the US equipment manufacturers a strong backlog, hire workers, increase the tax coffers.
