Understanding the Hidden Truth Behind War
War profiteering is started by powerful people and uses poor and common people. Just a few people are behind the war. They make us fools. In this article, I am going to discuss those people and their reasons behind conflicts.
War is not what they tell us. Behind every conflict, there’s a business. Profiteering from war means making money from conflicts while others die. This has happened throughout history, and it continues today.
How Government Controls People Through War
How Government Uses War to Stay in Power
Every government has one agenda: rule the nation. They spend a lot of wealth in campaigning to get votes, and they use all the hooks and crooks to get government. When the government sees we are getting into trouble, they start war.
This is an old trick. In World War I and World War II, the same thing happened. Leaders had problems at home, so they started war outside. History shows this pattern repeats across centuries.
Defense Companies and Weapon Manufacturers
Weapons and missiles are being made under government contracts. Government gives big amounts of money in the name of security. But where does this money go? In America, they spend more than $800 billion every year on military. This money goes to weapon companies, creating massive profits.
Look at these numbers:
- They spend $2.4 trillion on military in whole world
- Top 5 weapon companies made $196 billion in one year
- One company Lockheed Martin got $67 billion from government
- 70% of US military money goes to private companies
Nathan Rothschild made the most money from wars in history. Today, defense companies make billions from conflicts. Every bomb, every gun, every tank—someone is getting rich.
See these facts:
- Iraq War made $138 billion for weapon companies
- When war starts, weapon company stocks go up 5-15%
- Pentagon gave $75 billion to companies without competition
Government makes a full picture; they use religion and patriotism to start and win a war. But the real reason is money and profits.
How Government Manipulates People to Support War
Why Government Uses Religion to Start Wars
Most nations have religion. Government grows religion; they give big amounts to religious leaders. A religion always grows under government. History tells us that without government, religion did not spread, and when kings, leaders, and governors accepted religion, religion spread like winds of fire in a jungle.
Government uses religious leaders and religious perspectives for war. They tell people we are God’s chosen people. They even give names of war using religious names. The nation thinks war is related to religion, so they give money to government and army through taxes and take part in war.
Look at Crusades, look at modern wars in Middle East. Same story—use God’s name to make people fight while profits continue behind the scenes.
How Patriotism is Used to Make People Fight Wars
Government shows people that your land is not a land of ordinary people. It is land of amazing and powerful people. Save this land and die for it. People listen to songs about it, make movies, saying we are one and the best nation. National holidays are celebrated for it.
In World War I, they made posters and films to make people join army. They made people feel special about their country. Same thing in World War II. Same thing today with social media and movies. Research on propaganda shows how effective these techniques are.
Government and rulers take advantage of it. They use patriotism for their benefits, and in war it plays an amazing role while the wealthy benefit.
Why Poor People Die While Rich People Profit
The Truth About Who Really Fights and Dies in Wars
Think about this: rich people’s children never go to war. Poor people’s children die in war. Rich people make weapons, poor people use weapons.
Who profits from war? Weapon companies and defense contractors profit most. In 2023, top 5 companies made $196 billion from government while poor families lose their children in war.
Quick Answer: Wars are started by powerful people but fought by poor people. Rich people make money from weapons while common people pay with their blood and taxes.
Wars are business. They make money from our blood. We are fools if we don’t see this.
The Military-Industrial Complex
The military-industrial complex is the partnership between government, military, and weapon companies. This system creates endless profits from conflicts. President Eisenhower warned us about this in 1961, but it has only grown stronger.
Here’s how it works:
- Weapon companies donate to politicians
- Politicians vote for bigger military budgets
- Military buys weapons from these companies
- Companies make billions in profits
- Cycle repeats with more wars
This is the reality today.
Final Words: Stop Being Fooled
Religion, patriotism, fear—these are tools to control us. Next time someone talks about war, ask: who gets money? Who dies? Who decides? Who benefits?
We must stop being fools. We must ask questions. Until we do this, wars will continue. Rich will get richer, poor will die.
The truth is simple: war profiteering has always existed, and it will continue until we refuse to be manipulated. Question everything. Follow the money. Protect the innocent.
