The Three Trillion Dollar War

"There are not any good wars, and there are not any bad peace."
It is an old words but it's true. Joseph Stiglitz and Linda Bilmes calculated the true costs of Iraq and Afghanistan wars. including invisible costs such as mental care for PDSD, pensions for veterans, compemsations for casualties and costs for governmental debts.
How will the Obama Administration deal with both wars? How will Japan conribute the peace in the world? The democratic party in Japan might win for the next national election, but I haven't seen their effective manifest. They can manage this difficult period, cant't they? As you might know, nobody expect the current ruling party.
