"The primary aim of modern warfare ( in the accordance of doublethink, this aim is simulanteouslyand not recognized by directing brains of the Inner party) is to use up the products of the machine without the general standard of living" (188).
The quote means that Goldstein is explaining that this is the rule of modern warfare in Oceania. This is also an exciting chapter because you find what modern day countries are in Oceania, Eurasia, and Eastasia. The concepts Goldstein touches upon are pretty interesting and the fact that half the stuff he says is messed up. I'm confused but at the same time entertained.
impoverishment: to reduce to poverty
indefatigably: incapable of being tired out; not yielding to fatigue; untiring.
