if you spent the money from the iphone you "need" on donating to give to the approximately 9 million people die of world hunger each year according to world hunger statistics. It may save several lives. Are their innocent lives nothing to you?

I assumed so and am to a degree aswell. I don't think you are an evil global elite. The point was more that almost noone is a completely "moral" operator so cherry picking someone who works for a defensive contractor isn't a very fair for such a multifaceted ethical issue. We unfortunately don't live in a world that is safe without weapons.
