The trillions of dollars was spent on what is the us military industrial complex. If the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan cost 2-3 trillion 80-90% actually went to american companies. One of the reasons it is hard for the US to get out of wars and decrease spending on military is that will stop the economic growth in many US states. If us gave billions in aid to fighters in Syria most of the money came back to the us through sales of arms.
