The United States of America has been spending something to the tune of 1Billion dollars a year since 1993 or so cleaning up the former Soviet Military establishment. The Clinton Administration was not asleep at the wheel as many people would have you believe. http://www.nti.org/db/nisprofs/russia/forasst/ctr/demilit.htm
For all the crying the right wing in this country does about how horrible unprepared, ill equipped and otherwise neglected the military was under the Clinton Administration, I think it is important to remember that it was that military and it's plan that responded in Afghanistan.
