US/UK/Israel. Can losing wars bring profit and a power victory? Yes if you’re the banker.
Fri 1:58 am +00:00, 14 Aug 2026US outspends all others on defence. But is that actually effective?
Others are catching up, and getting more bang for their buck.

The US had set the target of manufacturing 100,000 155mm artillery shells every month by the end of 2025.
Instead, it has failed to reach even half this target.
This is in part due to an entire General Dynamics factory that failed to make a single usable shell component in 2 years and after receiving hundreds of millions of dollars to do so.
Far from just an issue with artillery shells, US military industrial production is being held back by systemic flaws rooted in the for-profit nature of the US government and economy itself – siphoning off billions (if not trillions) of tax dollars and not only returning nothing of value for the American public – but diverting funding abroad on wars of aggression at the expense of funding healthcare, education, and infrastructure at home.
This reveals US for-profit industry as the very threat in reality to the American people, industry and the politicians they own, who claim Russia, China, and Iran are in fiction.
Trump’s gone quiet. Is he planning the use of land forces? Crazy. Or nukes? Crazier.
The Iranians are not backing down.
The US and Israel are all over the place.
