Then there are the bankers ...
... who are also part of the partnership
between the Gulf monarchies and the oil companies. Instead of developing
the Middle East, the Gulf monarchies have put the bulk of their money in
the hands of the Western bankers. Some $900 billion in Middle Eastern
oil profits fill the vaults of Citibank, JP Morgan Chase and other banks
in the U.S., Europe, and Japan. Therefore, these bankers were also
extremely concerned about the fate of the Emir of Kuwait and his
buddies. [70]
[Banker says:] May God save the Emir!
Then there are the contractors...
All the big construction contractors, oil service companies, and other
major contractors and suppliers all raced to get their piece of the $100
billion worth of contracts to rebuild Kuwait. Giant U.S. corporations,
such as Bechtel, Halliburton, AT&T, Motorola and Caterpillar, got the
great majority of the contracts.
BIG BUCKS CONSTRUCTION INC.: Earthquakes, hurricanes, and industrial
accidents are OK, but there's nothing like a good war for our bottom
line! [71]
Last but not least, there are the owners of General Dynamics, GE,
Boeing, and all of their associates in the war business itself ...
As they watched the missiles flying and the bombs dropping in the
Persian Gulf, the top executives of the big weapons manufacturers were
adding up their profits, their brains working like cash registers gone
haywire.

eyes:] ch-ching $$$$ ch-ching
