Economic Costs of the War
There is considerable ongoing debate on what the cost would be for the
war and subsequent rebuilding of Iraq. NABE will use this page to post
links to any estimates we find online. NABE does not endorse or oppose
any of these estimates, and will link to any that we find that amount
to more than just off-the-cuff opinions or posturings. If you know of
any online estimates that we haven't posted here, let the webmaster
know.
