NATO Hawks Itch for War, Media Cheers Along
According to The Telegraph, some NATO defense officials are eager to broaden rules of engagement to start shooting down Russian planes. This isn't just saber-rattling; it’s a direct highway to global conflict, packaged for public consumption as necessary deterrence. Conveniently unmentioned: the deep pockets pushing for ever-escalating military engagements, consistently benefiting defense
contractors whose stock prices soar with every new 'threat.' Remember the 'weapons of mass destruction' that justified the Iraq War? The corporate media then, as now, dutifully amplifies the drumbeat for war, rarely asking about the endgame or who profits. One might wonder if these 'hawks' have any children to send to the front lines, or if their concern for 'security' conveniently aligns with the
fiscal calendars of Lockheed Martin and Raytheon. How many hypothetical civilian casualties are considered an acceptable price for proving NATO's 'resolve'? It’s a macabre bingo game where the only real winners are those trading in human misery and advanced weaponry.
