Regardless of how others viewed it, Hardy greatly benefited from the ongoing Middle Eastern war.
He made a modest profit from selling cargo ships, earning just under fifty million dollars.
He also profited from selling weapons.
Additionally, there was his investment in Johnson. If Johnson succeeded, Hardy's involvement would be a contributing factor, but the larger factor would undoubtedly be the unwavering support of the Jewish community, enabling Johnson to assist Israel. Thus, the Middle Eastern war directly bolstered Hardy's investment in Johnson.
If the investment in Johnson proved successful, the Hardy Group was poised for a period of significant growth and development.
The Hardy Group's think tank had already been established. A few days ago, Hardy convened several think tank members to analyze the potential benefits for the Hardy Group if President Johnson were re-elected. The think tank subsequently produced a detailed report.
