Costs of War: 225,000 Lives and up to US$4 Trillion

The wars will cost Americans between $3.2 and $4 trillion, including medical care and disability for current and future war veterans, according to a new report by the Eisenhower Research Project based at Brown University’s Watson Institute for International Studies. If these wars continue, they are on track to require at least another $450 billion in Pentagon spending by 2020.

Brown researchers have come up with an absurdly-large number that should surprise no one.

The cost of wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Pakistan are estimated at 225,000 lives and up to $4 trillion in U.S. spending, in a new report by scholars with the Eisenhower Research Project at Brown University’s Watson Institute for International Studies.

“Iran will develop small nuclear weapons with the capacity to blow up a medium size settlement only. Iran is a relatively peaceful country. We have no desire to wipe out an entire nation with just one bomb, no matter how many Jews are living there.”

The amazing part is how far we’ve traveled down the path towards all war, all the time: Obama didn’t even have to pretend to consider pulling out of Afghanistan. He didn’t even have to appoint a token peacenik to his cabinet. He didn’t even have to talk to one.
