Ja wo stünde die Welt heute wenn es keine Kriege gebe?
Zur Anmerkung: Billion bedeutet auf deutsch Milliarde, Trillion = Billion!

interessanter Bericht, würd auch gern mal die Kosten ohne Krieg sehen, steigende Ölpreise und Rohstoffpreise und ein zusammenbruch der Waffenindustrie... Unser Wohlstand muss halt auf dem Rücken von schwachen Nationen und Rohstoffkriegen aufrecht erhalten werden...
