Iraq War: The $3 Trillion War That Changed the World

The Iraq War began on March 20, 2003, with a US-led invasion aimed at eliminating weapons of mass destruction and removing Saddam Hussein from power.

What followed became one of the most expensive wars in modern history. According to Brown University’s Costs of War Project, the long-term economic cost is estimated between $2 to $3 trillion, including military spending, reconstruction, and long-term care for veterans.

Beyond Iraq, the war reshaped global geopolitics, destabilized the region, and influenced energy markets and international security policies for decades.

With leaders George W. Bush and Saddam Hussein at the center, the conflict left a lasting economic and political legacy still felt today.

Was this the most expensive geopolitical decision of the 21st century?
