Comments on: Study: Financial Cost Of War Skyrocketing

Economists' Book Estimates Iraq War Costing About $12 Billion Per Month This Year

What doesn''t seem to be accounted for here is the additional unproductive costs that we seem to have blindly adopted - all the surveillance and TSA and the like. How many terrorists are there, do you think? 50,000? 100,000? They could never turn this nation into a Sharia-abiding land, not us at 300 million. However, they can and have laid siege to us. We will crumble under our own weight. Out of Iraq, tame the terrorists (and they are NOT the country of Iraq) and we might have a chance to spare our nation of the economic starvation that is upon us.

Turkey, not Iran, will ultimately dominate Iraq and bring tpeace to it.
IF this is a daydream, it is certainly no worse than the nightmare Bush has given us.
