Perhaps they are both bogus entities.
If wars can be bogus the why not all of the other 'professions' as the funding comes from the same place. Iraq gunning for Iran just after 1979 was Iraq acting as a proxy army for the US. If Saddam had known he would be knifed in the back by his partners he would have lost to Iran and insisted they invade his country properly.
Da:11:27:
And both these kings' hearts shall be to do mischief,
and they shall speak lies at one table;
but it shall not prosper:
for yet the end shall be at the time appointed.
For the flaws that do exist the corrections are coming from left field rather than 'the competition'. If they both support the same view and it is flawed do they need more money or less. The Clergy is no better, the books have been the same for 2,000 years or more and every week some Padre will claim that God just showed him something new.

When the Ares 3 crew runs into a dust storm with 105-mph winds, the team is ordered to evacuate, out of fear that their return ship might topple over. As the crew struggles against the winds to reach the vehicle, a flying piece of shrapnel hits Watney, and his crewmates assume he’s been killed.
It’s true that Mars’ sandstorms can be massive, enveloping the entire planet in shadow for days or weeks. And they can be quite wild, with winds topping out above 100 miles an hour. But it would feel a lot different from a 100 mph storm here on Earth.
“If I were standing on Mars, a 100-mile-per-hour wind is going to exert the same effect on me as about an 11-mph wind on Earth,” Dave Lavery from NASA’s Solar System Exploration program told
Popular Science. According to the
Beaufort Wind Force Scale, that’s a gentle breeze.
“So you wouldn't get that level of damage, or big pieces flying through the air, causing all these events to happen,” says Lavery.
Why are Martian sandstorms so much less powerful? It all has to do with the density of the atmosphere.
Mars’ atmosphere is only about 1 percent as dense as ours, “as if you were standing on a 100,000-foot mountain on Earth,” says Lavery. (That would be about three times higher than the peak of Mount Everest.)
"You wouldn't get that level of damage, or big pieces flying through the air."
Because the atmosphere is so much thinner, the amount of energy in its winds is much lower. The energy is determined by how much air there is, and how fast it’s moving. Or in other words, momentum = mass times velocity. Assuming velocity is constant, having fewer molecules in the air lowers its mass, which brings down its momentum.
Conversely, “the thicker the atmosphere is,” says Lavery, “the more energy it’s able to store as it moves, and therefore the more stuff it can pick up.”
It’s sort of like the difference between getting hit by a 20-mile-per-hour river versus a 20-mile-per-hour wind. Which one is going to pack a more powerful punch? The river, because water is denser than air.
As a result of its thin atmosphere, winds on Mars carry about one-tenth of the energy of those on on Earth.
