Probably you can still remember the start very well. Time for a calculation. It’s been 4 years since war in Iraq has started. One of the newspaper today released an article made by a Nobleprize winning economist, Joseph Stiglistz, that one minute spent by the United States in Iraq costs $320,000. According to UN food aid organization, It only cost $0.19 to feed a child every day. There are a total average of 20,000 children die everyday because of hunger.”
