This is like asking what do the league owners have to gain by playing a game.
There are people who profit on both sides of a conflict and sell products to both sides.

Yes , yes i know this , but we're not talking about the usual shenanigans, we're talking major war, a war where
the continental Unites states takes a beating.
Europe burns, millions dead. The very business's that would profit would be already wiped out.
Money might even be meaningless. this is the sort of war that could be brought down on us if they don't get a grip.

Trace the source back through the money. Defense contracting is big bu$iness in the US. It is one of the only industries we have left. War means big contracts and orders for Lockheed Martin, Northrup Grumman, Halliburton, etc. We go in and bomb a country; these these government contractors go back in and rebuild (think Afghanistan). There is tons of money and cash flow from the US gov't and other countries to these corporations. Search the C-level and BODs of the main gov't contractors - it's all public record. You should not be surprised that a lot of these people are high-ranking government officials (i.e. Dick Cheney/Halliburton).
If Israel goes to war with Iran, they will need weapons. Oh, wait, the US will be right there with weapons. We have to keep people fighting, or there would be no need for US goods/services. We have outsourced everything else.

I personally don't think Americans will tolerate another war. I may be wrong, but America is really looking ugly with all this saber rattling.

First you have to understand that it isn't America that is doing this.
It is the Globalists who have no countries.
They couldn't care less that America is falling, and in accordance with that, will be more than happy to facilitate our demise in the name of their ever growing bank accounts.
To put it simply: The Powers That Be (for lack of a better term) take no notice of a country's borders, and have no care for it's people. They care only about profit. Money money money.
War makes money. That's all it does. It takes resources, which equals more money for the conquerers. It kills people, which means more bread and bullets for the rest of the soldiers, which equals more money for the conquerers. It especially loves the build up to war, where fear can cause rival countries to buy MORE and MORE guns, ammunitions, tanks, shells, fatigues, rations, etc. Then when their rivals buy slightly BETTER stuff, the other country has to REbuy even BETTER stuff, and all of this means.... you guessed it, more money for the conquerers of the planet.
They have no loyalty to the US yet they are the ones in control of it. They are the ones who created the state our country used to be in, with our huge hummers and escalades and 22 inch rims, all of our bling bling, etc. Then they were the ones who, after getting us in debt, brought the country to it's knees economically, and called in that debt. More money for them. Now they will bring us down to the level of a 3rd world nation, where we will work for 15 cents a day and be happy for it. Slavery. True slavery, not just the economic slavery we already suffer. Less wages for us = even more money for them.
Money money money. That's all you really need to know about why there is constant war when the people constantly beg for peace.
