Who doesn't have health care? Hospitals are mandated to treat all. Who is hungry? Try visiting a 3rd world country, without food stamps, and you'll witness hunger. Your brain cells appear to be misfiring...Bush clearly pointed fingers at Iraq, now you claim he didn't? Any nation that provides safe harbor for terrorist would be held accountable. In case you hadn't noticed, the War on Terror was forced upon us, we're just responding. And grow up. All wars are plagued by collateral casualties. Perhaps if the cowardly "freedom fighters" didn't kidnap children, our fine young men, who took all precautions available would not have to live with this. To think they give their own lives for the likes of you, so you can show all your thoughts.

Yes I've wondered this before... and that is a disgusting amount of money... people are losing their houses over here, and they are going about the war in a wrong way. i think how they should fight terrorism, is learning where they are getting their weapons from, there has to be factories somewhere, and the natural resources to make weapons, if we discover where the mines are, who's selling these people the weapons, confiscate the weapons, shut doswn the weapon's factories, then they have nothing to fight with anymore... put all that money into investigators, intelligence, rather than soldiers... we should just not have "soldiers" anymore, we need to out smart them, not play their game of evil.

Ok , its the bill for being Nosy in other countries inner conflicts !
It was a fire consuming both countries ... War are just wrong if they got no DECLARED and CLEAR Aims and goals !
edit :
Excuse me , don't Tell me the GOAL was to prevent terrorist attacks ... Cause then you will have to fight the whole world !
Such large sum of money if spent on internal security will prevent attacks !

How do you trust a report that lists itself as a primary source?

Notice that the cost of the Vietnam Conflict, adjusted for inflation, is still way ahead, and the body count is still much higher also.

yes, i have.
and i've seen that documentary by Moore.
one of the US soldiers that's in Iraq said that the bus driver in Haliburton got paid much higher than the US troops in Iraq.
imagine that!
but its not gonna be long. US will have to pull back their troops. Australia is doing it, so does Britain.

They're getting 10 times that much out of the petroleum there. That's what I hear but I really don't know. I think this whole thing's retarded and they need to get a life.

Money is no object when it comes to the military. Health care and education are just poor step children.
