Financial services estimate that the US will have spent almost $802bn on funding the war by the end of fiscal year 2011, with $747.6bn already appropriated. Figures released in June 2010 put the cost of British funding of the Iraq conflict at £9.24bn ($14.32bn), the vast majority of which was for the military (to kill innocent, poor and already oppressed people) but which also included £557m in aid. I wonder if Bush and Blair had not dragged the UK and the US into an illegal war 10 years ago, perhaps we could have spent all that money in educating a lost, violent, disillusioned and now out of control youth. Oh and university fees are going to be £9000 a year from September 2012, so much for the future of eduction. Thank you very much Mr Blair and Mr Bush you mother fucking pair of twats!
