Your points are all accurate, save the highlighted parts, I am supposing. In the US, most Artillerymen (certainly all Arty officers) have very high clearance, as we had tactical nuke capability from ground/artillery systems for many years. Maybe there is some method that renders the highlighted portions inaccurate. I really don't know details. I have no personal knowledge of as much. What I say is assumed and could be inaccurate.
>>>Sort of like how in Operation Fast and Furious, the ATF facilitated illegal gun operations to Mexican cartels.
There's no way of knowing where the guns will go after that.
But that's not hypothesis. It happened. The guns given to the Mexican cartel made their way back to America, and were used to kill a US federal agent (that is the only way the story broke--the feds found the serial numbers on the gun used in the murder of a federal agent, and when one fed agency looked up the serial numbers they saw they were in an ATF database).
A third gun linked to "Operation Fast and Furious" was found at the murder scene of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, new documents obtained exclusively by Fox News suggest, contradicting earlier assertions by federal agencies that police found only two weapons tied to the federal government's...

There is no telling the extent of the damage these guns caused. Since the Fast and Furious debacle was never fully investigated (Atty General Eric Holder was found in contempt of court for refusing to cooperate, given a slap on the wrist, and the case was dropped), we don't even know how many guns we are talking about, or how many people in America or abroad were murdered with these weapons.
What is going to stop a Mexican cartel dealer from selling a firearm to anyone? Not a thing.
Likewise with the pallets of cash delivered to the mideast. The money is in thousands of different hands at this point, likely used for everything from groceries to weaponry to prostitution to who knows. Once you deliver weapons or money or something to someone, you give up control over it.
As for artillery or nuclear weaponry, obviously those are not likely to be transferred after delivery, but the aid packages the west is sending are things like shoulder mounted missiles, drones, guns, mines, etc.
The MUCH larger issue is not the effect of money, ammo, or weaponry sent abroad does today, but
what it does over the following decades. Remember, a few hundred thousand dollars of Stinger missiles given to the mujahadeen in the 1970s resulted in a War on Terror against these "former allies" 30 years later, costing over a trillion dollars, tens of thousands of lives, regular suicides by American servicemen feeling mental anguish about the killings they performed abroad, gave us the TSA and Homeland Security, and destroyed many of our 1st and 4th amendment rights, which you can't really put a price tag on, and to a large degree entirely erased what was essentially good about this country in the first place.
You can say it is an intentional plan by the elites to just have random violence everywhere, and that may be true, but it is unlikely we will know their intentions. Let's say we are indeed dealing with completely insane and amoral elite leaders, who do not behave rationally. What are we supposed to do if that is true?
