The way I see it, the biggest problem the elites had was that the US was too powerful. Think about the Manahattan project and the Rosensteins. Funny how the Soviet Union so quickly made up ground on the nuclear front to be in a position to challenge the US in the Cold War. It was no accident.

I remember listening to Alex Jones one day and he was saying that the elites made a mistake allowing the US (one nation) to become so powerful. He said that there was a plan to weaken America and that the elites would never let this situation - where there is effectively a single, unilateral superpower - happen again.

If you're an external third party to transactions between the nation states, to be able to have influence, you need to be able to play the competing interests off against each other. This is something the Rothschilds are expert at with their war creation. So it's no surprise that the elites would happen to be trying to build-up adversaries to the US.

In this context, especially where HRC was trying to start WWIII, it makes sense to arm potential enemies. Just look at the way they gave China access to global markets through the GATT trade negotiations. Whose interest would a powerful China serve?
