An illegal and disastrous three-trillion-dollar war for Israel, which has killed over one million innocent Iraqis and generously dusted the rest of humanity with tons of windborne uranium oxide residues, is currently costing the U.S. taxpayer 144 billion dollars a year. (Those are government figures, so multiply threefold.)
The tab for the adventure in Afghanistan comes in at a comparably modest 48 billion dollars a year but is expected to grow exponentially in the face of increasingly stiff resistance from a nation … who took a good long look at democracy in action and decided it was not for them.
