Military Industrial Complex Set To Boom Amidst US-Backed Worldwide Turmoil
Manufacturing Your Consent For Israel Conflict
The Israeli government, which has received more money from the US than any other nation since WWII, and for whose interest every single sitting member of Congress industriously labor, is as of late the forefront of the news cycle; Hamas launched a counter-offensive strike on Jerusalem on October 6th, which led to an all-out-assault "on Hamas", and on 2,750 civilians, including 750 children, the most Palestinian casualties since 2014, when even the Israel-inclined UN acknowledged the grievous statistics in a press release. Every single sitting member of Congress immediately began making verbal support for, and sending out tweets "standing with Israel", with a rare exception or 2 at best "both sides-ing" the issue, Acknowledgement has not been made by CNN, MSNBC, ABC, or Fox News to the 5,600 Palestinian casualties since 2008, or to the open air prison (some have noted that since a "prison" is intended for those who have broken the law, "concentration camp" is likely more appropriate terminology.) conditions within which the Palestinians are subject. The US has subsequently prepared 2000 of our own soldiers to assist in placing the boot more definitively on the necks of the Palestinian "vermin", as which they have been referred by those discussing the issue. From the outset, the US currently sends $3.3bn per year to Jerusalem, a figure likely to rise in the coming months as the US government stands firmly with the oppressor, which may not be regarded as such a new concept for some readers not benighted on the issue.
Your Ongoing Manufactured Consent For Ukraine Conflict
The conflict in Ukraine is framed in mainstream news circles as "Putin's invasion of Ukraine", with much punditry expended painting the Russian President in a Hitlerian light, and manufacturing the consent of the American public to "stand with Ukraine" (a propaganda technique which has proven powerful, with most liberal, and some conservative, accounts now sporting Ukrainian flags), and send, thusfar, $75Bn (yes, that's "billion", with a "B") in military support. Never is it mentioned on cable news that the US backed a coupe in Kiev in 2014, or that our politicians have corrupt interests there (and I am not merely referring to Hunter Biden's similar corruption in Ukraine), and of course Ukraine's own government is extremely corrupt. Never is it included in articles by The New York Times or the Washington Post that the Ukrainian government has been shelling the native Russian people of the Donbass Region for the 8 years since said coupe, or that they begged Putin to intervene on their behalf. It is only important that Putin is the antichrist, and that our geopolitical allies in the region are the victims in need of filthy lucre - which, again, may not be regarded as such a novel concept by readers not so benighted on the issue.
Your Upcoming Manufactured Consent For Taiwan Conflict
After Ukraine loses decisively to Russia, and the US backs off from a resolute China on Taiwan, the military industrial complex will be in desperate need of a casus belli, which is the purpose behind the media's preemptive smoke-screening with regard to the nation whose flag will soon be replacing the Ukrainian one on Twitter bios across the twittersphere of those whose minds have grown fat on mainstream propaganda. The day after China announced a military drill in the region, the US responded with the largest joint military drill between itself and the Philippines. Taiwan currently receives $345mil annually from the US, and of course the US desires geopolitical dominance in that region (as it does with all regions).
Military Industrial Complex Set To Boom Amidst Turmoil
Even as the homeless population in the US continues to swell (a population of which I am an unfortunate member), even as the US has failed to follow all other nations of the civilized world in providing healthcare to its citizens, and even as US infrastructure slips further behind, the military industrial complex is doing better than ever, with investor stocks surging in anticipation of ever-increasing conflict. Instead of ensuring the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, the vast majority of our fiscal torque is squandered on "geopolitical dominance", and the unmitigated extraction of the earth's natural resources for our own capitalistic advancement. While the barons of the top 1% continue to amass double the wealth of the combined remainder of the earth's population, the inexorable power of propaganda manifests itself as the nation's owners watch the world burn through diamond-studded sunglasses.
