...groups inspired by al-Qaeda ideology pose a particularly difficult challenge to those assigned to protect the public in an open society - and especially when the terrorists are "homegrown." Three of the four suicide bombers who carried out the London attacks were second-generation British citizens (the fourth, Germaine Lindsay, was a Jamaican-born British resident); the young men blended easily into the Muslim community, and their families and neighbors seem not to have known that they were involved in terrorism.

Bilmes says she began her analysis last spring, after some of her students asked her how much the war was costing America. Before the war, Lawrence B. Lindsay, then the director of the Bush administration’s National Economic Council, had said the war’s cost could reach between $100 billion and $200 billion, but other Bush officials called that figure excessive. Bilmes says she could not find any economist who had dealt with...
