Multimillionaire Senators don’t want the American people to know how much Iraq and Afghanistan cost
THEY PURPOSELY HIDE THE MONEY WITH ACCOUNTING TRICKERY THAT THEY ARE REALLY SPENDING TO MURDER PEOPLE
The Iraq and Afghanistan invasions are funded through supplementary spending bills outside the federal budget. If you added the $142 billion funneled into those wars to the 2008 defence appropriation bill, the real figure would be $650 billion.
— Azmi Bishara, US war insanity, Al Ahram Weekly, Number 870, 8 November 2007.
The Bush team not only misled the world about the war’s possible costs, but has also sought to obscure the costs as the war has gone on.
This is not surprising. After all, the Bush administration lied about everything else, from Saddam Hussein’s weapons of mass destruction to his supposed link with al-Qaida. Indeed, only after the US-led invasion did Iraq become a breeding ground for terrorists.
The Bush administration said the war would cost $50bn. The US now spends that amount in Iraq every three months. To put that number in context: for one-sixth of the cost of the war, the US could put its social security system on a sound footing for more than a half-century, without cutting benefits or raising contributions. — Joseph Stiglitz, War Costs and Costs and Costs, Guardian, 13 March 2008
AND THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION AND THE MULTIMILLIONAIRE SENATORS CONTINUE TO FOLLOW GEORGE BUSH’S EXAMPLE.
It is past time to remove all the greedy rich bastards from DC.
THE KEY WORD PEOPLE, IS C-O-N-T-I-N-U-E!
The people of this county voted overwhelmingly to bring our troops home in 2006 and what have these bastard senators done since that time? They sent over 100,000 more troops to die and they continue to spend money on the war machine while our country at home falls apart!
