I'm no economist, but that doesn't seem like good value for money |
Apparently $250,000 each so $14,750,000 |
US NAVY fact sheet
Quote: | Unit Cost: Approximately $569,000 |
Which makes $33,571,000, or £27,025,438.
Article in the Sun...
Quote: | Each Tomahawk missile cost about $832,000 (£667,000).
US officials say 59 missiles were fired from the USS Porter and USS Ross warships which were positioned in the Mediterranean Sea.
This would have cost the American taxpayer at least $49,088,000 (£39,353,000). |
Squander.com -
Quote: | The cost of each Tomahawk missile varies, depending on the type of missile. More simple versions of the Tomahawk missiles cost $500,000. According to preliminary reports by Brian Williams of NBC News, it appears that the missiles used in the Syria attack cost around that much.
However, the Block IV versions of the Tomahawk missile, which are more complex and can hit moving targets, cost up to $1.5 million each.
The total cost of President Trump’s attack on Syria, then, is between $30 million and $100 million. |
CNN...
Quote: | Each unit cost about $569,000 in 1999 dollars, according to the US Navy, -- equivalent to about $832,000 today. |

NASA hammer pricing, but this lot reckons $1.59 million each = $94 million for a piece of propaganda.
It's an interestingly Trumpian response. One humungous KABLOOEY on an unambiguously military target, throwing a bone to the "Think of the children!" hand-wringers while demonstrating that he's not a Russki puppet, and hacking off both the alt-right and the peacenik left.

Al Beeb's are going with the line that even though most rational people agree with Trump's action, that Trump changing his mind is a sign of irrationality.

I'm guessing that Dailymail article was pulled due to conspiracy accuracy?

Well I wasn't necessarily going down that road but for the joy of debate I'll at least remind you that most advanced nations have special forces, attack groups etc, all of whom sign an official secrets act, and many of whom would love to be involved in all kinds super-secret covert operations. "Like the movies innit." |
And yet completely fail to knock off individuals without leaving a trail, so I ask again how would the west gas a load of civilians. Is this the work of a clandestine organisation independent of Trump? Or is he risking his new presidency just 'because'?
Lord Percy wrote: | You obviously didn't get his message then
It wasn't suggesting 9/11 was an inside job. It was suggesting that 9/11 was very conveniently placed for the timeline of events that followed.
I didn't see it as a conspiracy documentary at all. By the end of it I didn't leave feeling morally outrage at 'the west'. All I took from it was an illuminating breakdown of the way things have ticked along since the 60s, with all sides inputting in their own way, as everyday prole society carries along regardless. |
Conveniently placed by coincidence? The whole bit was BS as he was using clips from after 9/11 to show how we were being conditioned for the attack, and then the same film to show the 'barrage ' we were under. |
