The Business of War

Making profits out of war is an ancient phenomenon. There are enterprises who constantly supply material to prepare armies and consequently profit from war. Enterprises are well aware that war itself and the post-war period is undoubtedly lucrative. The truth is always the first casualty - and frequently the least lamented - in world geopolitics. The war machinery made us believe that we are constantly in danger from the invisible.The highest bidder - corporations, now owns the fourth pillar of democracy - MEDIA, the fourth estate  which has turned into an estate sale. A lot of governments would always go for launching missiles instead of the constitution when the choice is between WAR and domestic reckoning. In the long run, the war in itself does not result in peace but immense profits and securing resources for the dominant elite few. The wealthy few propagate and influence patriotic and despotic war-peddling all over the world, inspiring the citizen's backing and exciting their nationalism. They make trillions of dollars in profit out of devastation and deaths. Wars are inherently harmful and economically regressive. War has a significant negative cultural impact - it fosters an atmosphere of distrust, anxiety, suspicion, and insecurity rather than fraternity and companionship. Let today's humanity evaluate these critical issues jointly and allocate economic resources more responsibly to national defence. A new view on war economics and the actions that follow will improve the planet
