The tally for post-9/11 military costs is staggering. More than 8,300 American service members or contractors dead in Iraq and Afghanistan. Nearly 200,000 civilians killed in those two wars. An estimated final financial cost of up to $4 trillion. And the only “benefits” of these human and monetary outlays, according to the Brown researches, are “democracy” and “greater rights for women.”
