Frequently Marxists claim imperialism wages wars to sell arms. Even I used to think that, untill I studied it more closely. Even if there were no arms to be sold Ukraine and Russia, Jews and Arabs, would still be going at it. Hate, fear, lies, ignorance drive war much more than mere greed. Crapitalists know war is destructive to wealth so they generally reject it. This is why there are fewer, not more wars, why crapitalism did not (and will not) collapse.
