About The Cost of War:
To date, $915.1 billion dollars have been allocated to the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan. The national, state, and local numbers we provide are based on
the total approved amounts through the end of Fiscal Year 2009.
In addition to this approved amount, the FY2010 budget shows a $130 billion
request for more war spending. This would bring total war spending in Iraq
and Afghanistan to more than $1 trillion. When all FY2010 war-related
amounts are approved, we will adjust the counter so that it reaches the new
total at the end of FY2010.
If you should compare the amount displayed on the numbers in our information
sheets with the Cost of War counter, please note that the information sheets
include all war spending approved to date, the same number that the counter
will reach at the end of the 2009 fiscal year.
