Provide Confortraq (feeding refugees). Continued HopeSomalia (feeding country). Provide PromiseBosnia (air drops). and Able SentryMacedonia (keep Bosnia from overflowing) And when you consider the other nondefense related costs we are being asked to fund such as the almost $5 billion in environmental expenditures and the S3.2 billion In economic conversion. it is a miracle that our defense dollars go as far as they do.
