Who gets the supply (and other) contracts? And by what process were these contracts awarded, by the way? Who, exactly, gets the revenues, or some stream from them, from whatever it is that goes out and comes in the ports and the airports and the roads? Which financial assets are directly and importantly affected, and in which ways? Always interesting questions to ask-- and there are so many more.

And toilet seat covers way back in 2018. Read 'War is a racket' by an American hero Smedley Butler & you'll get a real feel for it. You can find it online for free. America has lost its way.
