Complete Title: America's 'war on terror' has cost the US nearly $6 trillion and killed roughly half a million people, and there's no end in sight

[marktwain]

Who came up with these numbers and drivel?

Oh! It is The Cost of Wars Project. This is a far-left political artifact dedicated to exaggerating the costs and neglecting to mention any benefits.

Here is a modest, partial rebuttal.

[marktwain]

These numbers are from the far-left "Costs of War" project.

They assume that none of the deaths would have happened without U.S. involvement.

Of course, there is no way to know that, with any certainty.

There was tremendous loss of life in these areas before U.S. involvement.

The costs are tremendously overstated by the "Costs of War" project.

The Left is known for lying and exaggerating to push their political agenda.

6 trillion dollars and there are still a billion Muslims infesting the planet.

We’re not getting enough bang for the buck.

Somebody remind me how much the 9/11 attacks cost?
