    Foreign policy: Washington spent 7.5 trillion dollars on wars 54% spent in Iraq


    translate range

    While
    arguing about the observers of the tenth anniversary of the Iraq war,
    about the size of the errors that were committed – foolish, arrogant
    imperialist ambitions, mistakes based on false intelligence, and
    unjustified fear, evil is in the details.

    The figures-compiled
    by some shareholders (29) in the costs of the war, from Brown University
    – helps to put the past 10 years under the microscope.


    The creation of Al-Qaeda

    In Iraq
    Al-Qaida
    had no presence before the 2003 US-led invasion, the new name of the
    Organization (Al-Qaida in Iraq) has since then formed and began
    launching attacks on us and Iraqi forces and regular attacks on Iraqi
    civilians. In addition, in 2013, the organization published its
    technical expertise and in Syria, Jordan and Libya. Although Iraq has
    become a "front" in the war on terrorism, says Jessica Stern, a former
    member of the National Security Council — they created the United States
    front.

    Conflicts exacerbated by the war in Iraq

    It seems
    that the US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003 had bullied Iran and North
    Korea, and did not praise them for seeking weapons of mass destruction,
    but, on the contrary, the war in Afghanistan has expanded due to the
    invasion of Iraq, and Pakistan escalated with the increase in military
    expenditures and loss of life.

    Classification in Iraq corruption

    Although
    Iraq has established formal institutions and democratic practices of
    some sort, it is ranked eighth in the world's most corrupt countries by
    transparency international reports for last year. View Naji al-Ali of
    University College London, Department of Oriental and African Studies,
    that women are still underrepresented in politics or in the ministries
    or manpower, they largely represented in the totals for the illiterate,
    unemployed and poor.

    Dust poisoning

    The size of the toxic
    dust particles that Americans soldiers in Iraq inhale between 2, 5-10
    micron; that soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan have elevated
    levels of respiratory diseases, heart and blood vessels more than
    returning from other wars.

    Found that dust in Iraq contains a
    very high percentage of the particular substance contain 2, 5-10 micron
    molecule million, is so small that the lungs cannot remove.

    Says
    Robert Miller, an expert in lung diseases from Vanderbilt University
    School of medicine that dust and sulfur from mines that exploded in
    early 2003 and the remnants of the toxins from the burning pits may be
    responsible for respiratory diseases of combatants involved in the Iraq
    war, including increased rates of bronchial tightness.

    Of course that the Iraqi civilians still living with dust and other air-borne pollutants, produced by war.

    The number of physicians

    In Iraq is very small
    After
    the invasion of 2003 had fled nearly 18,000 Iraqi doctor. Some of them
    returned, but in 2012 no more than 84 psychiatrists and 22 a doctor for a
    population of 31 million. He found Dr. Mac Skelton and Dr. Omar daoishi
    of the American University of Beirut, many Iraqis travelling abroad –
    to India and Turkey, and Jordan and Lebanon – surgical and basic health
    care because of lagging vaccinations in childhood.

    Minimum documented number of war dead

    The
    majority of those who have died in Iraq since 2003 were civilians. The
    toll includes 4488 from the soldiers Americans and 3,400 Americans
    contractors and nearly 11,000 Iraqi police and 318 coalition soldiers
    and 62 humanitarian workers.
    Although the toll of Americans soldiers
    known, Catherine Lutz of Brown University says that the total number of
    contractors killed and wounded is still uncertain.

    As Nita
    Crawford from the same University that there is disagreement about the
    number of civilians killed directly because of the violence of the
    binder may be part of the total fatalities. In addition, there may be
    other deaths as a result of the destruction of the infrastructure of
    health care in Iraq.

    The number of suicides of soldiers the Americans in 2012 has 349
    Ken
    says McLeish of Vanderbilt University that this number is not large,
    but could escalate because of the trauma of war after the soldiers
    return to their homes.

    The number of persons with disabilities and their treatment
    The
    number of service men and women who took part in Iraq and Afghanistan
    reached two and a half. More than a million and half of them have left
    the service and become eligible for disability benefits and medical care
    as veterans.

    Show Linda bilmes of Harvard University that these
    are patients – with one third suffer from mental illnesses, and a high
    percentage suffering from brain injuries and musculoskeletal disorder
    which is a burden on the organizations of Veterans Affairs and the costs
    of medical care, and disability is on the rise, raising the cost of
    treatment to 970 billion dollars over the coming years.

    The Iraq
    war has cost taxpayers Americans 1.7 trillion dollars excluding health
    care for veterans in the future. With the addition of expected future
    costs for care, the share of Iraq of four trillion dollars spent for it
    will rise to 2.1 trillion dollars. While the Bush Administration
    estimated the Iraq war cost 50-60 billion dollars.

    Accrued interest on loans for Iraq until the year 2053
    The United States did not raise taxes to pay for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

    Has Brian Edwards of Queens College Economist calculates the interest
    due on the loan just to pay for the army and the Foreign Ministry. And
    cost benefits to both world wars would exceed the 7.5 trillion dollars.
    Iraq's share of expenses of the Ministry of Defense and Foreign Affairs
    from 2001 to 2013 is 54%, and you have to count it.

    And cannot count a lot of incidental costs of these wars, but there are some lessons that can be learned.
