How kind heated of these noble stewards of our humble planet. That Blackrock recruiter in his interview with O’Keefe lost his cool and I could detect what sounded like a Russian accent with the way he spoke broken English. It got me thinking about how all this funding by US tax payers for the Ukraine war is unaccounted for and may just be going into the Russian Oligarchy. War is good for the economy, or so they say, but whose? It is true that all the technical advancements that come in wartime for a supposed humane cause end up in the hands of these military contractors who are controlled and owned by the bankster oligarchs that manipulate the economies. Maybe that is what the recruiter means. Oh well…

Smedley D. Butler, War Is a Racket (New York: Round Table Press, 1935), pp. 1-2:
War is a racket. It always has been. It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.
A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small “inside” group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes.
Nothing new under the sun…
