"Every gun that is made, every warship launched,
every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft
from those who hunger and are not fed, those
who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms
is not spending money alone. It is spending
the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists,
the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life
at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war,
it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron."- Dwight D. Eisenhower
This BBC estimate speaks volumes for the futility of war...
hope someone's learnt some lessons...
