From War to Wallets: How Conflict Becomes Commerce

Mac pulls back the curtain on a hard truth: in many conflict zones the war becomes a business — and the strongest, wealthiest actors win. In this frank conversation we discuss how local power dynamics, sectarian divides, and the lure of American money reshape decisions on the ground — often with devastating consequences. Expect blunt observations on Saddam’s rule, why “majority rule” didn’t take root, and how payoffs and power replaced civic ideas. This is a conversation about money, force, and the moral cost of occupation.
