Come on Circe! You’re well read enough to know that there is big money in war profiteering! Would you like me to show you a couple of links? It’s pretty common knowledge I’m just surprised it’s missed your attention.Money? Can you give an example? Land, yes; resources such as oil and tin and diamonds and aluminum, yes; control of the seas and land and power generally, yes ------- but not just money, surely?
Hmmmmm. Interesting question. Maybe the Opium Wars between Britain and China: the Brits were spending so much on China tea (this really happened) that they needed foreign exchange currency with China. Hence the opium, which led to problems, like our fentanyl problem.
