As of late September 2017, the United States wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan and
Syria and the additional spending on Homeland Security, and the Departments of Defense
and Veterans Affairs since the 9/11 attacks totaled more than $4.3 trillion in current dollars
through FY2017. Adding likely costs for FY2018 and estimated future spending on veterans,
the costs of war total more than $5.6 trillion.
