1. You mean IF the war products work as designed

You know, lots of times our forces depend on them, and stuff doesn't work. Then our soldiers die. But the corporations who designed and "tested" them still get their profits for their shareholders while military families bury their dead. And all this on the taxpayer nickel.

Ain't war grand.
