First kill animals, drink their blood (cooked as au jus) then kill humans and profit.
The State of "Israel" already has a homeland, and it's called the Jewish Autonomous Oblast or JAO. Anyone can look it up and move there.
The viciously profitable BUSINESS of war
(Jake Tran) ๐ There’s something special about war.
Over the past 3,400 years of human history, we’ve spent only 268 years in peace.
Milk war for money.
But the business of war goes much further back than that, with the first one ever recorded in 2,700 BCE in Mesopotamia. This makes the industry of war have a longer track record than the information industry, education, and banking combined.
HOW? Confessions of an Economic Hit Man
War is the ultimate discipline of any government. War is to government what life and death is to humans. If nations can meet the challenge of war, they’ll survive. If it can’t, they’ll perish.
War can also be looked at as a racket.
If you can help governments in their primal act of survival to remain in power by offering raw materials, weapons, soldiers, services to soldiers, you’re going to be the government’s best friend.
Normal business profit margins are around 10%, give or take.
But war-time profits? We’re talking 20%, 60%, 100%, 300%, 800%, the sky is the limit!
DuPont for example during WWI, during the war-time years, their profits increased by more than 950%!
Or take the Central Leather Company at that time, in the three years before the war, profits were around $3.5m. In 1916? $15m.
During the Iraq War, often called the most privatized war in history.
Don't start having second thoughts now, Bibi. When you sell your soul, you have to ask the Satan to guide you. - No, Joe, I was just thinking how we could kill ALL of them AND keep me out of jail.
The CIA works for corporate profits, not for US.
KBR, the main logistics supplier contractor for the US, we’re talking food, facilities, and so on, got a whopping $39.5 billion in Iraq-related contracts
KBR’s parent company, Halliburton’s CEO was paid $42.6m in 2004
CACI’s CEO made a fairly decent $22.2m in 2004
TITAN? He takes the crown with a $47.2m income in 2004 and 2005.
If we look throughout history -- funding and supplying the enemy is all in a day's work as a war profiteer
in the war industry: Customers are all the governments of the world.
It's you and me against China, Dolly. - O.K.
You can’t make war-time profits...if there isn’t a war.
The general public usually never wants to go to war. Now is the time to lobby for war, push for more conflicts, max out campaign contributions, get the mainstream media involved.
This film and advice is, of course, ironic. That is to say, we mean the opposite. The Buddha taught that there are five kinds of "wrong" livelihood: business in weapons, people (slaves), animal flesh (meat), intoxicants (alcohol, drugs), and poisons. A wise person avoids these as grave wrongs, harmful karma, instead living abundantly by "right" livelihood.
