The Pentagon is Taking Your Education!
In 2006, economists estimated total Iraq war costs at $3.5 trillion. With $3.5 trillion, we could have done this:
For the next 133 years, send every 18-year-old in the U.S. to a state university: tuition, fees, room and board--for four years.

A Huge Military Budget Fosters War
Material brake on going to war eliminated.No reason for weapons to sit in warehouses!
War justifies previous purchases and budget decisions.
Effective ways of preventing conflict crowded out.
The huge profits of military contractors used to promote more wars.

Vietnam: Over 58,000 American combat deaths; 2 million Vietnamese deaths?
Iraq: About 4,800 American deaths. 122,000 Iraqi civilians? Over one million?
Afghanistan: About 2,200 American deaths. No civilian counts before 2007; for 2007-2011: U.S. says 12,000 civilians killed during that time period.

If masculinity = defined in large part as violence and aggression
Then, war = ultimate form of masculinity

Propositions: Agree or Disagree?64
Glorifying war normalizes and glorifies male violence generally.
The more militaristic a society, the more violence against women.
A syllogism:
Male sexual violence is a key enforcer of sexism.Militarism increases male violence, including sexual violence.Thus, the more militaristic a society, the more sexism and gender inequality.

Militarism is a Women’s Issue!65
Militarism and war divert money at home that women need
War causes untold deaths and injuries of women
Militarism leads to violence against women, at home and abroad
Militarism entrenches sexism
