And yet I read in "Five Eye-Opening Facts About Our Bloated Post-9/11 
'Defense' Spending"
JOSHUA HOLLAND - AlterNet :

<One line-item suggests that 9/11 has been used to justify greater 
military spending across the board; the nuclear weapons budget has shot

intercontinental ballistic missiles that can vaporize whole cities are 
useful in a 'war on terror” is anybody's guess.>
