Memory Hole: The Costs of the War on Terror

(Updated: Originally posted December 8, 2006)

Ledger: FY = Fiscal Year; DoD = Department of Defense; ES = Emergency Supplemental; b = billion

FY02: DoD - 344b ; ES - 17b ; Total - 361b

FY03: DoD - 388b ; ES - 75b ; Total - 463b

FY04: DoD - 437b ; ES - 96b ; Total - 533b

FY05: DoD - 474b ; ES - 108b ; Total - 582b

FY06: DoD - 505b ; ES - 122b ; Total - 627b

One year later, those numbers are staggering!

And they have only continued to increase.

Isn't the ES Bush wants for '08 $200 billion?
