War bill could feed the world
'The White House puts the
cost of a single cruise missile at
$800,000. The opening blitz of 320 of them launched at Baghdad cost $256
million. The price of just two of these missiles would build an entire
new village for the charity SOS Children's
Villages or feed 270,000 hungry people in
Angola for a month'
