    The military-industrial complexes always have something to gain in wars (provided they manage to adapt in time). But there’s no other alternative industry that can supply the needed hardware to win a war, when an invasion happens. It just seems that’s all what our species can do best: kicking each other, then having a rest for a few dozen years and starting over.

      I’m not sure I understand your point. Are you trying to say that it being pro-war is a necessary evil? Are you assuming that the world would be less better off without powerful and breathtakingly enriched entities that thrive on war?

      I’m not saying I have all the answers but I don’t think I have to have all the answers to be against war or to be against the military industrial complex. Maybe that’s just me. 😁
