According to The New York Times on January 17, 2007: “We were told also that our allies would join in a massive coalition [in Iraq] so that we would not bear the burden alone. …we are now bearing that burden almost entirely alone. More than 90 percent of the non-Iraqi soldiers are American, and the U.S. taxpayers have now paid more than $700 billion.”
