I know I shouldn’t respond to comments like this, they’re uninformed and conspiracy ridden so not HN material, but “arms companies” have no need to “generate conflict.” People are fairly efficient at doing that regardless.
Given the objectively and publicly known huge part of the US destabilizing other countries overtly and covertly, and similar stories from innumerable other powers throughout history, I would say it takes damn much energy from third parties to generate a conflict between people I would love to see a comment defending US actions, in a way that makes sense, using only its official public narrative. Every damn official point made for justification is full of holes and counter examples.
