11 days ago
354

In Lt. Gen. Smedley Butler’s book, “War is a Racket” he explained how wars were started and fought to support the wealthy industrialists who always profited from conflict, by securing government contracts for everything from military weapons, hardware, uniforms, food, vehicles, aircraft, guns, ammunition and even chemicals. President Dwight D. Eisenhower also warned against the Military Industrial Complex. Hosted by Colin D. Heaton. Forgotten History is a 10th Legion Pictures Production.
