A new report released by the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (Sipri) an independent research institute, just revealed the extraordinary sums spent on weapons in 2004 - the sixth successive year in which arms spending increased.
The global total spent on munition topped $1 trillion!!!
In contrast, the amount spent on arms with $455bn, an increase from
2003 of 12 per cent.
Britain, the second largest arms spender, spent $47bn - a tenth of the
U.S. total.
This is the biggest scandal on earth and the biggest problem for the future of Humanity.
1 Trillion is 1 billion of billions of billions of $ wasted for nothing while
scientists have no money to make researches.
With only 1 year of this stupid military spending there would be no more
1 million children on earth starving to death, and a cure for AIDS and
for cancer would have been found.
The militaries of the earth are the cancer of Humanity.
