Longer than World War II...And About As Expensive
Sunday's Washington Post includes a piece about the profits of war—the rising fortunes of companies supplying the war effort. It cites a report, released June 7 by the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, showing that current military expenditures, expressed in real dollars, are at their highest level since 1946.

The Democrats in Congress and the Senate make all of this possible. Vote for Dennis Kucinich.
The war in the Congo, started in 1998 has killed close to 4 million humans, the most lethal conflict since WWII. This war does not involve religion, nor the evil communists, only poor Africans fighting and killing each other, so nobody cares. The silence is like thunder. You are all a bunch of white hypocrites.
