Question

and whats left of it? thank you.

Answer 1

According to the National Priorities Project, which has a running total, the US monetary cost (does not include other nations), is ~$350,508,000,000.

As of Dec 14, 2006:
U.S. Deaths Confirmed By The DoD: 2939
Reported U.S. Deaths Pending DoD Confirmation: 3
Total 2942
What price do you place on a human life?

Plus 46,880 US Non Mortal Casualties (as of Dec 2, 2006).

Other nations' military deaths (as of Dec 14, 2006):
Australia 2
Bulgaria 13
Denmark 6
El Salvador 5
Estonia 2
Hungary 1
Italy 33
Kazakhstan 1
Latvia 1
Netherlands 2
Poland 18
Romania 2
Slovakia 4
Spain 11
Thailand 2
Ukraine 18
United Kingdom 126

I know of no reliable numbers on Iraqi dead or wounded.


US Budget for FY-2006 was $2.696 trillion
US Budget for FY-2007 is $2.8 trillion
(FY is Oct 1 to Sep 30)

Answer 2

The figure for the cost of the war is over 600 Billion ( that's billion with a capital "B") plus or minus a few billion here and few there. The cost of the war is not apart of the appropriations bill. My fear is that nobody has a handle it. Congress should. However, our republican congress rubber stamped everything that came across their collective desks and they did not take the time to add or subtract. It is my hope that the democrats will be more responsible. But the party's over and the bills in the mail. Guess who will pay!

Answer 3

with current allocation = over 650 billion dollars currently been spent or set aside thru jun 2007.
3000 lives almost. no price can repay those.
150,000 Iraqi's.

Bush should be tried along with cheney-rice-rumsfeld-rove.

just like saddam.

Answer 4

500 billion. with a B or half a trillion.

Bush has done most of it off-budget, so we really don't know what the budget is.
