'Signature Strikes' and the President's Empty Rhetoric on Drones

By Arianna Huffington at Huffington Post.

On March 17, 2011, four Hellfire missiles, fired from a U.S. drone, slammed into a bus depot in the town of Datta Khel in Pakistan's Waziristan border region. An estimated 42 peoplewere killed. It was just another day in America's so-called war on terror. To most Americans the strike was likely only a one-line blip on the evening news, if they even heard about it at all.

Care2: War Profiteering At Full Throttle [Video]

By at Care2

With May Day around the corner and a renewed focus on the ever-widening gulf between corporate profits and middle class incomes, the announcements of Lockhead Martin, Boeing and Northrop Grumman deserve additional scrutiny. Why’s that? Because those companies are quite literally war profiteers.

The amount of money disclosed is nothing short of staggering. Lockeed Martin made $668 million in profit last quarter, Northrop Grumman made $506 million and Boeing raked in $923 million.

As Robert Greenwald points out, even asking the simple question of whether people and companies should be allowed to make huge profits from war in today’s political climate is brushed off. But it didn’t always used to be that way. Both Republicans and Democrats alike used to warn of the dangers of corporations influencing war policy because of a profit motive. I think it’s fair to say we failed to heed those warnings.
