now please do not think me evil but if there is war and fights and skirmishes make no mistake some one is getting rich regardless of your views ...the tools for war are paid for in money..please dont forget that.
Incorrect, it is religion agendas that are the big product of war. Every war resulted from either religion or agendas. Donald trump or Rockefeller are not out there starting wars.
The rich use religion as a way to push people apart, and pit them against each other. Carlos is correct, if you study any major war, there is always some underlying organization getting rich. You don't think the Catholic church built the Vatican, or any of it's other exuberant holdings on the backs of the tithes of the poor do you?
Study the works of US Marine Major General Smedley Butler. He has a much different take on war!
Do organizations benefit from wars? Yes, some do. However, again, money was not the driving power in those wars, it was merely a beneficial outcome of the war.

###any how to answer the topic it is possible for drone operators to get PTSD. every one deals with things differently. remember that few people are suited for war and some times images or memories and sounds to trigger the wrong responses. try not to be to hard on others who are in difrent roles during war. WAR IS WAR and all...all ...who are forced or volenteer to participate will suffer one way or another. it is how , after, how we deal with things and how we find ourselves that makes the difference, may the FORCE be with you! feel free to om me any time im always available CARLOS

Almost all wars have been fought for financial gain of one measure or another. A few may have started off as religious endeavors or over political ideology, but in the end it is profitability that champions the most support.

So? I make money from war. If there wasn't a need for defense, I wouldn't have this job. Is money a factor in war? Always. Troops require pay, food, care, and equipment. War is very expensive (look at the Defense Budget). We need supply. No one will give anything away for free. Lockheed produces some of our military aircraft as well as commercial aircraft. They have every right to make money off of their research and sales. Just like the guys who make the food we eat and the munitions we use. If there was no active conflict we would still maintain our supplies (if at a lower level) so these companies would still be being paid for their services. And if they weren't being paid from "war funds", they would be selling things on the civilian side. People find a way to profit from anything. But even if you take money completely out of the equation, unless the world was enlightened, I bet we'd still find plenty to go to war over.
War is not simple. You can't say that one thing is what all wars are fought over. War was invented by humans, humans are complex creatures. There's very little we do that isn't complex.
PS: Do some more research on companies that produce equipment for war and I bet you'll find more than American companies.
