War is good for the economy don't you know, it took America out of the great depression. But seriously when WW2 ended America was the biggest loan shark in the civilized world. It lent money to Germany at a high interest to pay its war debts to England and France, who inturn payed America the debt they accrued from American funds borrowed during the war. All this is with interest of course. So you see its really a big cycle where everyone's happy.
When the war is over, when we're done blowing up Iraq, we'll have to "help" them rebuild. Of course there will be repayments for the "help" since nothing is free in the civilized world. Somewhere down the road the Iraqi people will have to repay the heroic Americans who in their democratic spirit was brave enough to oppose one of the most feared leader in the Middle East, or some pro-American BS like that, but of course the payment might not necessarily mean money, it can come in the form of political alliance, like Canada, or perhaps a puppet leader who'll drop his pants when W. says "shit!" But don't worry, money spent on war is money well spent.
