Trump's 'Locked and Loaded': Perpetual War, Perpetual Profits
Trump's saber-rattling against Iran isn't new; it's a well-worn script. Remember John Bolton, his former National Security Advisor, a vocal Iran hawk who, according to OpenSecrets, received significant funding from groups like the Free Iran PAC? This pattern, echoed by countless other officials, consistently funnels tax dollars into military-industrial coffers. We hear 'locked and loaded,' but the
real question is: loaded with whose money, and aiming for whose profit? It appears the 'threat' of intervention generates more wealth than actual peace, a strategic perpetual motion machine for the defense lobby. One might wonder if perennial 'enemies' are just annual budget line items.
