- The U.S. wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Pakistan have cost American taxpayers $5.9 trillion since they began in 2001.
- The figure reflects the cost across the U.S. federal government since the price of war is not borne by the Defense Department alone.
- The report also finds that more than 480,000 people have died from the wars and more than 244,000 civilians have been killed as a result of fighting. Additionally, another 10 million people have been displaced due to violence.

It's a disgrace what the US Pushed a lot of the west into over the last 30 years
It's terrible. And our citizens wanted the war back in 01/02. Make no mistake about it. But things have changed. Most ordinary people have learned form this shit, and don't want anything to do with it anymore.Â
Prety sure I have brought this up mid other threads but good on you for pointing it out.Â

No just the stupid ones, then these same retards decided that giving W another term was a good idea. That entire administration should be in jail. Still to this day people actually defend the Iraq war.

Fucking cunts, right? Right?
But we can't afford to prevent our own people from dying from having to ration their insulin.

Or provide basic housing for 3 million homeless children or basic healthcare for free for everyoneÂ
Fucking horrible but it's to be expected when defense contractors own elected officials and the media. Yes the public might have wanted a war in 01 and 02 but alot of that was based on bald face lies from alot of ppl including assholes like MuellerÂ

They didn't even mention the fuckery with the patriot actÂ

Trump & every president after him will do the exact same, despite what they may say while campaigning. They kinda don't have a choice tbh, the military industrial complex rolls on no matter who sits in the Oval Office.

Waste the money? You think it just disappeared?
You better read this post by haya1340:
“Fucking horrible but it’s to be expected when defense contractors own elected officials and the media.”
Lobbies run shit now. The biggest threat to our democracy that ever existed. And sadly, since Big Corps bought off all the news channels, our media is propaganda for the most part too.
These wars made BILLIONS for companies. Yet people for the most part don’t care!

Was around 80% or the people wanted war according to polls at that time. Plus almost of all congress, repubs and dems.

I got called a traitor on this site for speaking out against the Iraq invasion. And that was in 2007.

Most of them couldn't hsve located iraq on a map.
You wonder what we could do with our infrastructure if that money was not being wasted on pointless brush fire wars all around the world. I read somewhere the US has had less than 20 years of actual peace since it's founding.
