might is right !
Might is Right ! And for someone with a hammer , every problem is a nail.
When the most militarized nation in the world is also the firmest believer in those old sayings , you can be sure that the wars will be seen as the way the world's problems can be solved.
Costs in human lives and misery will not matter. Costs of the hardware used will just be seen as a way to keep the economy going and the best way to make profits.
The Military Industrial Complex is not just confined to the biggest producer of Military hardware. A producer that is a partner with the Israeli Military Industry Complex and, with the highest number of Security Council vetoes, its biggest supporter. The fact that the vetoes are for the biggest violator of UN resolutions has no meaning for those who believe in Miltary Might.

The Middle East is probably the most highly militarized region in the world. Five of the ten countries with the world’s highest level of militarization are to be found there. This indicates the outstanding position of the military apparatus compared with the rest of society.

With its Global Militarization Index (GMI), BICC is able to objectively depict worldwide militarization for the first time. The GMI compares, for example, a country’s military expenditure with its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and its health expenditure. It contrasts the total number of military and paramilitary forces in a country with the number of physicians. Finally, it studies the number of heavy weapons available to a country’s armed forces. These and other indicators are used to determine a country’s ranking, which in turn makes it possible to measure the respective level of militarization in comparison to other countries.
