If you own the media, you can control which news gets highlights and which don't. Wars, in my believes, serve multiple purposes. Namingly, wealth transfer, depopulation, regime changes, more control and others. I believe we got to the point where people understand as it is so obvious as they nomore care to even hide it. They just don't care about what people want, they want obedience and control. After they achieve their goals they will make it look like they care about the people again. And the loop will continue. If we cannot change the current system, we should participate in building a parallel one for us.
