While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are in Afghanistan and the Philippines defending “all freedom-loving people everywhere in the world,” Donald H. Rumsfeld, Secretary of Defense (foreign military aggression), predicts the upcoming Iraqi-American War will Cost “something under 50,000,000,000” “dollars.”
Postscript: The Iraqi-American War Cost at least 3,000,000,000,000 “dollars”—more than 60 times Rumsfeld’s estimate.
