This Is the Company Profiting Most From War

Many of the military conflicts around the world exist in nations that do not have the capacity to make sophisticated weapons. Most of these are in Africa and the Middle East. These include conflicts in Nigeria and Ethiopia. Largest conflicts involving regime change. This includes Iraq. In the case of Iraq, American forces left behind weapons that can still be used. There are countries that believe they need protection against possible conflict, many of which spend hundreds of millions of dollars on weapons. Saudi Arabia and Turkey are good examples. Several nations provide most of these weapons. The United States is at the top of this list by far, but it includes several European nations and Russia.

In some of these "weapon providing" nations, companies and not the government design and build these weapons. Several have become among the largest corporations in the world, and several are public and have shares that trade on major stock markets.

To determine the company profiting the most from war, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed data from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute Top 100 Arms-Producing Military Services Companies, 2020. Companies were ranked based on SIPRI’s estimates of arms and military services sales in 2020. Some Chinese companies were not considered due to a lack of sufficient data. Arms and military services sales figures came from SIPRI. Revenue figures for the latest fiscal year came from financial reports and corporate press releases.

I own 6 rifles and thousands of rounds of ammo made by NORINCO.
Provide a service that someone wants, you will succeed.

“I’ve often wondered why it is in todays world armed conflicts erupt primarily in dark skinned nations...and often.”

Wars in Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, New York, St Louis, Houston, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Atlanta, Oakland, Cleveland, etc, etc, etc...

I often wondered the same.

Seems some folks are living with real generational secular/state educated grooming (intentionally destroyed faith in God and subsequent destroyed families), to live with no-moral-boundaries, hate and actual racism, uncontrolled anger, and emotional rage -

It’s also inherent within all leftist minds.

I watch yhe heisman and the nfl draft. The majority of those successful athletes have 2 patent supporting them, pushing them to be disciplined. They frequently praise Hos also.

I have lived in several of our most violent cities.

There is no question, at the end if the day, it is both heartbreaking, and it’s all a result of being Godless.

It also serves to increase the necessity of totalitarian power in government.

The Bell curve highlights the phenomenon but the answer is found in actual science.

What company made gunpowder and shipped to France, England & Germany in WWI? When and Why did this company stop shippment of gunpowder to Germany, and what was the result?

DOW Chemical. America entered the war and Germany ran out
of ammunition and abdicated in trench warfare which requires
volumn’s of ammo.

Who were the individuals in German Industry that spent the years following 1918 and Germany’s defeat on the Socialite Circuit taking about how they provided industrial production data to the Allies and what were their religion?

There were about a dozen braggarts who happened to be Jewish
bank owners and factory owners often spoke to the
newspapers, on radio interviews of their heroic work with
British Intelligence and American Intelligence agencies, and
were prominent in theWestern Socialite Circles after WWI. Had
these few vain and selfish people not betrayed their parts in
helping the allies to calculate when Germany would collapse.....

Between the Versailles Treaty and Jewish betrayal, Germany was primed to hate one group of non-Germans who had vash amounts of wealth concentrated in the form of Banking and Industrial Capacity.

Hitler proclaimed unfair the Treaty of Versailles, which all but
the French would agree imposed TOO much in reperations. The
Jews were targeted for to justify stripping them of banks and
factory ownership as both a secuity measure, in WWII, and later
to be exterminated.
