The purpose of capitalism is not profit, the purpose of capitalism is empowering the rich.

The ENTIRE purpose of capitalism is profit, line goes up, this is what empowers the rich.

The goal of the invasion of Iran is not to profit, the goal is to crush Iran.

Wrong, removing the regime is the central idea so that the American oil companies can step in and declare Iran's massive reserves as their own.

Trump is the puppet here, the figurehead if you want to go that far.

    Except as I demonstrated by example, when profit would not empower the rich, capitalism chooses the rich over profit.

    Could you please provide a counterexample instead of just asserting that I'm wrong?
