Stumbled across this...

...and thought worth punting up on here. The cost of war in Iraq. There are even some handy comparisons to other possibly just a smidgen more worthwhile uses of the money. Would like to see a UK equivelent if anyone knows of one, always seems to be easier to find US stuff. I'm sure it only be a fraction of the cost of what the US spend but i'd bet on it being still a hell of a lot.
