I love how their messaging is that the proxy war is good actually because it's creating jobs. The obvious question here is whether it would be better to create jobs that actually make things people in US need like say housing or infrastructure as opposed to ones directed towards facilitating atrocities half way across the globe.

They're saying the quiet part aloud. Imagine the gov publicly stating the Iraq war is for oil.

This is basically why Trump was so hated, he'd just blurt thus stuff out constantly.
