The link posted above shows how much money was spent to fund the Gulf War which was approximately $61 billion . The link also states that about $54 billion was paid by other countries in the coalition. When taken into account, the US really only paid about $7 billion of the total cost of the Gulf War.

The cost of the Iraq War, which is stilling going up everyday, is shown in the link above. Many experts believe the full cost of the Iraq War could go as high as $1 trillion or more! That is a ridiculous amount of money to be spent on a "forgotten war". Who will pay for this war? How will it be eventually paid? These are all questions Americans need to know.
