According to research at Brown University’s Watson School of International and Public Affairs, Washington’s 21st century wars in behalf of the Zionist agenda of Greater Israel have cost American taxpayers about 10 trillion dollars.Twenty-five percent of the US national debt, the interest cost of which is approaching one trillion dollars annually, is the price imposed on Americans by Washington fighting Israel’s wars for Israel. The ten trillion dollar cost consists of:
“The cost of the post-9/11 wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria, and elsewhere totals about $8 trillion. This does not include future interest costs on borrowing for the wars.” [Or the mounting cost of the war on Iran.]
“The costs of caring for post-9/11 war vets will reach between $2.2 and $2.5 trillion by 2050 – most of which has not yet been paid.”

The American people had no stake in these wars. The Zionist neoconservatives and presstitute media disguised these wars as a “war on terror.”Like Trump’s false claim of Iranian nukes, we had the Bush regime’s false claim of Saddam Hussein’s “weapons of mass destruction” and the image of a mushroom cloud going up over an American city.We had President Obama’s false claim that Assad “used chemical weapons against his own people.”We had numerous false claims about Gaddafi, Osama bin Laden, Afghanistan.A quarter century of endless lies justifying wars for Israel.The Republicans represent Israel.The Democrats represent immigrant-invaders and the sexually perverse.No one represents Americans except Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie, and at Israel’s beckoning Trump has targeted both to be excluded from the House of Representatives.
The wars for Greater Israel had an immense opportunity cost.The 10 trillion dollars and ongoing 1 trillion dollars in annual interest cost would have financed the world’s best free national health system with money to spare. The American health care system is broken.It is high cost and a large percentage of the population is excluded.
Washington’s wars for Greater Israel have many other costs. Among them are:
“The wars have been accompanied by erosions in civil liberties and human rights at home and abroad.”
“At least 940,000 people have died due to direct war violence, including civilians, armed forces on all sides, contractors, journalists, and humanitarian workers.”
