There's no point in rehashing it. I continue to believe we did the right thing; you continue to believe we didn't.

You're doing what Stiglitz did, which is to include stuff in "cost" that doesn't belong there. While it is appropriate to include the costs of caring for the injured, those costs must be properly counted, e.g., discounted, which Stiglitz didn't do. You can't just start throwing random shit into "cost of the war".
