Question by Ruby: In what ways does the media mogul who owns all of these stations profit from WAR? ?
What other businesses does it own? What does it supply to the government, including to the Pentagon? What contracts did it secure for the “rebuilding” of Iraq”? Is it involved in the security business in any way? How about alternative fuel?
Does it profit at all from weapons and technology that are “sold” to Israel?

Very interesting and thought provoking.
I would imagine there are more profits to be made from those spectators who are lured and hypnotized into planned “nostalgia” mentality. The stories can be sold for many years to come as documentaries, movies, dramas, musicals, plays, talk shows, inet video and even comedies.
