In 2003, Donald Rumsfeld estimated a war with Iraq would cost $60
billion. Five years later, the cost of Iraq war operations is more than
10 times that estimate. So what’s behind the ballooning figures? Joseph
E. Stiglitz and Linda J. Bilme’s exhaustively researched book, The
Three Trillion Dollar War: The True Cost of the Iraq Conflict, breaks
down the price tag, from current debts to the unseen costs we’ll pay
for many years to come.
