Not war; just business

War is an extension of politics, but with different means, Gen, Carl von Clausewitz once said. Today, however, the situation is a bit different. Today, war is an extension of economics, but with different means.
War has become cynical. It has no political legitimacy any more. It lacks a historical meaning. Now we don't conquer territory, we don't conquer peoples, we don't make Crusades. All we do is pursue profit. Everything boils down to this arrogant economic objective of the "free market", profit. Every bomb, every explosion must generate profit. War is a huge investment that is supposed to bring revenue, economic results, including the blood and death of some people that stand in the way of profit.
