Al-Nahar: America and Israel exploit warmongering for economic gain.

The Lebanese newspaper Al-Nahar reported in an article titled “What does the US-Israeli alliance gain from the Middle East wars?”The war economy is one of the modern concepts that is tied to the growth of monopoly capitalism. This economy has been highlighted by the ongoing wars and conflicts in the Middle East, which help strengthen the hegemony of the United States and Israel over the region.

The media wrote: Wars and conflicts in the region help to secure the economic interests of several parties, especially the United States, which makes huge gains through its arms industries and military domination strategies.

Al-Nahar reported: The US-Israeli alliance dates back to the beginning of the 20th century, when Jewish immigration to Palestine was increasing and Zionist movements were supported by Western powers, especially Britain and the United States. After 1948, this alliance became a strategic alliance at various military and economic levels. The Sykes-Picot Agreement and domination of the Arab region are among the most important pillars on which this alliance is based. The Zionist lobby in the US and Britain played a major role in accelerating this transformation and achieving its goals.

The media wrote: After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States began to redefine the concept of “enemy” in its global strategies, and the Arab and Islamic worlds became new threats to the West.

Al-Nahar reported: The Middle East wars are a source of significant profit for the US economy, as the sale of weapons and military services has kept large American companies such as Lockheed Martin and Boeing afloat. These wars also provide conditions for testing new weapons, especially given the increasing demand for weapons and military technology, and significantly benefit the US economy.

The media wrote: The US-Israeli alliance was not limited to the military sphere; it also expanded to the economic sphere. Israel became a key partner in the US military economy through the export of defense industries and the development of advanced technologies. Furthermore, ongoing wars in the region have increased Israel’s military and intelligence capabilities, making it a key player in American strategies.
