Pentagon says Iraq war running over budget
The top U.S. military officer said increased violence in Iraq is pushing war costs past the budget, risking a $4 billion shortfall by late summer as about 20,000 troops’ extended stay adds roughly $700 million over three months. The White House may seek more funds before year’s end. The war costs about $4.7 billion monthly. Defense officials review the budget through Sept. 30 to reallocate funds from other accounts.
