Iraq War Attacks By Month

I’m not sure what the following graph says about the war. I don’t know if this could be interpreted as “the surge worked” or if it means “the surge failed.” My gut instinct when looking at this graph is to try to extrapolate the future. Obviously, there is no way that the future can be predicted. I just think this topic is interesting.

Also, the war will cost us 190 Billion dollars next year – that is the amount of new funding being requested. The government estimates that we have spent 450 billion dollars to date.
