Refugees personify Iraq war

By HIEU NGUYEN

In April, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees convened a conference in Geneva on the growing refugee crisis in Iraq.

Approximately 4 million Iraqi citizens, of a population of 24 million, have fled their homes to avoid the violence of war. About half are in neighboring countries such as Syria and Jordan, and half are dislocated within Iraq in fear of their lives.

Two weeks ago, a British polling agency called ORB released the results of a survey that estimated that approximately 1.2 MILLION Iraqi civilians have been killed since the Iraq Clusterfuck began in 2003. Tina Susman of the LA Times writes:

According to the ORB poll, a survey of 1,461 adults suggested that the total number slain during more than four years of war was more than 1.2 million.

Two wars and a decade of sanctions have led to a huge rise in the mortality rate among young children in Iraq, leaving statistics that were once the envy of the Arab world now comparable with those of sub-Saharan Africa.

A new report shows that in the years since 1990, Iraq has seen its child mortality rate soar by 125 per cent, the highest increase of any country in the world. Its rate of deaths of children under five now matches that of Mauritania.

Males aged 15-44 years accounted for 59 percent of post-invasion violent deaths

There are fears that Iraq children will be a fatherless generation from this conflict.

Ten thousand doctors have fled the country. Two thousand have been killed. Some hospitals lack the rudimentary elements of care: hygiene, clean water, antibiotics, anesthetics and other basic drugs. Oxygen, gauze, rubber gloves, and diagnostic instruments such as X-rays are absent or rarely evident. This is Iraq today.

Before Iraq suffered through an embargo and two wars with the United States starting in 1990, its healthcare system was considered one of the best in the Middle East. Iraq had well-trained physicians and modern facilities. Today, the healthcare system barely exists at all, with few healthcare workers and hospitals that are battlegrounds.

Some 84 percent of Iraq's institutions of higher education have been burnt, looted, or destroyed.

Iraq鈥檚 educational system was the target of U.S-British military action, because education is the backbone of any society. Without an efficient education system, no society can function. Schools and universities were bombed and destroyed.

The current Iraq鈥檚 school curriculum is a U.S-crafted curriculum to brainwash Iraqi children.

In a callous and murderous policy termed "DeBaathification", thousands of academics, scientists and prominent Iraqi politicians have been murdered.

Today, more Iraqi cities and towns are under the same siege as Fallujah. People are not allowed to leave their homes and have no food and medicine. The cities of Ramadi and Qaim in western Iraq, just to mention two, have been under siege by U.S. forces for many days.

Hospitals have been destroyed to erase the number of civilians killed by U.S. troops in hospital data banks.

Schools, universities and government offices are closed. Random arrests of men, women and children, have resulted in the imprisonment of many young men, women and children.

Tens of thousands of Iraqis are now imprisoned and tortured in hundreds of U.S-run prisons throughout Iraq.

Oh yes, its our fault not Saddam's

And that is just what Saddam alone did So yes the problem was solved when Saddam met the noose

What a disgrace????????????????

yes you are

Ya we like going there spending all the americans money that should be spent on our own people and throwing it away there.

And still the carnage goes on. Yea Bush

Huh? Somehow that doesn't ring true...

Just what we need on YA`s ; a liberal Chris Angel pulling figures` & facts` out of his Socilalist Liberal Bias` Media`s bag of misinformation & "it`s the truth ; if no one is smart enough to know we are lying" bag of tricks . " What a display of a novocained mind " !!

you go hard dont you man well the truth hurts dont it

to all those who state this is untrue - what is the truth?please explain . I am curious to know what happened to the billions of dollars that were sent there - I really cant wait to get the soldiers back home to hear their side of this story because there seems to be a great disparity between the democratic press and the republican press as to what is going on there -personally I just want the truth

A government in chaos is easier to control with outside forces/means. Although, Bush & Co., if left to theirown devices and if they continue to hold power (like they assume they will) after 2008 the US will have no viable public school system, health care for the wealthy only, higher infant mortality rate than a third world country (see lack of health care) and fatherless families. That is the true disgrace. With him and his cronies it's always been about what is in it for them (oil, etc.) and not about what's good for the country.
