As an employee of a neutral newspaper Washington Post, I would just like to loudly say that WE ARE PROFITING FROM THIS WAR, THAT IS WHY THIS WAR IS GOOD.

You think the slavi ukrani people will read this and maybe figure out they're being duped or do you think they would just scold WaPo for being too cynical about the brave troops?

Nah, the vast majority of them already believe what WaPo believes, they just don't want to appear rude by saying it out loud. If they cared about Ukrainians, they would be mad at NATO for killing the Ukraine-Russia deal that was made very early into the war and where Ukraine would not lose any territory, but would only have to promise not to ever join NATO.
