Video The day before 9/11

Alex Constantine - August 14, 2008

25%+ of all Pentagon money is unaccounted for

The Pentagon receives the lion's share of the US tax payer's dollars.

36% goes to current military expenses. 18% goes to what's called "past military" which includes veteran's pensions and medical benefits.

The US spends more on its military than the following countries COMBINED: China, Russia, Britain, France, Japan, Germany, Saudi Arabia, South Korea, India, Brazil, Italy, Australia, Canada, the Netherlands, and Indonesia.

Where does the money go?

At least 25% - and some estimates are much higher - goes down a rat hole unaccounted for and never to been seen again. The above news report ran the day before September 11, 2001. The problem since then has become exponentially worse.
