He added, the war-propaganda machine in the media is also financially benefiting from the situation.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cThere\u2019s still delight in Washington, the military-industrial complex celebrate because business is good,\u201d he stated. \u201cBlow up the weapons, build more, test more, new technology, on and on. But someday, they\u2019ll run out of money and then they\u2019ll have to change their tune.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Dr. Paul stressed that tensions with Russia do not benefit America\u2019s national interests or the American people.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cThey\u2019ll end with hundreds of billions and they never come up short because if you come up short and you don\u2019t vote for it, they are going to say you\u2019re unpatriotic,\u201d explained the former Texas representative. \u201cPatriotism means obedience to the military-industrial complex and then you never get canceled. You might even get invited to their meetings and their fancy meals that they have.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Dr. Paul alleged the mainstream media is promoting a narrative to justify military spending to the public.<\/p>\n<p><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/biden-props-new-world-order-imminent-cyber-attack\/\">Biden Props \u2018New World Order\u2019, Imminent Cyber Attack<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FILE \u2013 U.S. Army troops of the 82nd Airborne Division just after arrival at the Rzeszow-Jasionka airport in southeastern Poland, on Tuesday, Feb. 15, 2022.
