L’estimation tient compte d’une prospective selon laquelle 75.000 hommes resteront d\u00e9ploy\u00e9s dans les deux pays \u00e0 cette date, dont 50.000 en Irak. Il reprend une pr\u00e9c\u00e9dente estimation en y ajoutant les int\u00e9r\u00eats puisqu’il s’agit d’argent qui entre dans la dette du budget f\u00e9d\u00e9ral. Cette estimation est donc de $2.400 millions, dont $1.900 milliards pour la guerre en Irak.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tIl y a d\u00e9j\u00e0 eu des estimations dans cet ordre de grandeur mais elles venaient<\/a> de sources non-officielles<\/a> alors que le CBO est \u00e9videmment un organisme officiel li\u00e9 au Congr\u00e8s.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tL’information est donn\u00e9e par USA Today<\/em> en date du 24 octobre<\/a>:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00abThe cost of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan could total $2.4 trillion through the next decade, or nearly $8,000 per man, woman and child in the country, according to a Congressional Budget Office estimate scheduled for release today.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbA previous CBO estimate put the wars’ costs at more than $1.6 trillion. This one adds $705 billion in interest, taking into account that the conflicts are being funded with borrowed money.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbThe new estimate also includes President Bush ‘s request Monday for another $46 billion in war funding, said Rep. John Spratt, D-S.C., budget committee chairman, who provided the CBO’s new numbers to USA TODAY.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbAssuming that Iraq accounts for about 80% of that total, the Iraq war would cost $1.9 trillion, including $564 million in interest, said Thomas Kahn, Spratt’s staff director. The committee holds a hearing on war costs this morning.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbThe number is so big, it boggles the mind, said Rep. Rahm Emanuel, D-Ill.<\/em> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbSean Kevelighan, a spokesman for the White House budget office, said, Congress should stop playing politics with our troops by trying to artificially inflate war funding levels. He declined to provide a White House estimate.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t Pour m\u00e9moire, l’\u00e9valuation du co\u00fbt de la guerre en Irak par l’administration Bush au printemps 2003, lorsque l’attaque fut lanc\u00e9e, \u00e9tait de $50 milliards.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tCe qui est \u00e9galement int\u00e9ressant autour de cette nouvelle, c’est l’intervention des lecteurs.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t D’abord, \u00e0 06H30 aujourd’hui, il y avait 2985 commentaires, ce qui n’est pas mal pour une nouvelle mise en ligne 12 heures plus t\u00f4t. Les commentaires sont \u00e9videmment de cette sorte :<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00abWe’re broke, people. GW bankrupted every company his daddy bought him to run, and now he has bankrupted an entire country.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbFOR WHAT ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t Deux sondages \u00e9taient joints \u00e0 cette nouvelle. La question \u00e9tait, r\u00e9p\u00e9t\u00e9e pour chaque guerre : \u00abPensez-vous que cette guerre vaille l’argent qu’on d\u00e9pense pour elle?<\/em>\u00bb Voici les r\u00e9sultats, \u00e9galement en douze heures de temps (entre parenth\u00e8ses, le nombre de votants), avec un r\u00e9sidu de ne sait pas. Pour l’Afghanistan : 53% de Non (13.098 votants), 39% de Oui (9.524) ; pour l’Irak : 81% de Non (20.764), 15% de Oui (3.866).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
