Where does shutting down the Permanent War Complex fit into your thinking Robert?
Imo too many powerful people globally are making shed loads of money on the backs of #BAeSystems, #Raytheon, #GeneralDynamics, #LockheedMartin, #Saab, #DassaultRafale, #Rheinmetall and the rest … and that’s even before you factor in the $billions that are being dished out in bribes & back-handlers to politicians, brokers, CEOs and the rest of the arms trade pipelines!
I’ve just watched, and been totally shocked by, the talk that Andrew Feinstein (Exec Director of Corruption Watch in the UK and author of ‘The Shadow World’) gave in Canada in 2017 entitled ‘The Shadow World of the Global Arms Trade’!
Seems to me you can try ‘beating back the corporate takeover’ of the US/ UK/ EU etc all you like along the lines you suggest above, but unless the conditions that allow the Permanent War Complex to dictate policy around war instead of diplomacy you’ll be beating your head against a proverbial brick wall!

Seems to me you can try ‘beating back the corporate takeover’ of the US/ UK/ EU etc all you like along the lines you suggest above, but unless you completely disable the conditions that allow the Permanent War Complex to dictate policy around war instead of diplomacy you’ll be beating your head against a proverbial brick wall!
