We will probably never know how many people died in the Iraq war, let alone much about them. Guardian journalists have spoken to relatives of the deceased of all nationalities, and here we tell 100 life stories.
Abas Khalid Hussein, 2 Abas, who died of gunshot wounds on April 7, was born in 2001 to a Shia family in their busy, child-filled home in the Baghdad district of Bayaa. He was named after one of the Imams revered by Shias. His father Khalid was a policeman; his mother, Fawziya Razaq, looked after the children.
He looked like his mother and his father hoped he would become a doctor when he grew up. He had begun to walk and to speak his first words, "mummy" and "daddy". He loved to play in the yard.
Early on the morning of April 7, troops of the US Army advanced down the highway near the house where Abas lived and came up against resistance from Iraqi army and Fedayeen militia. The Iraqi forces ran down Abas's street, and shots from a US armoured vehicle penetrated his house. Abas was killed by a bullet in the stomach and his brother Walid was injured. The US troops responsible did not leave their vehicle and do not know they killed a child.

Abas Khalid Hussein's story is only one of many sad stories. Unfortunately, his life, and the lives of many of his innocent countrymen were worth less in the eyes of Shrubya than a single American life. THAT'S the American way for ya.
America is the land of the hypocrite, American dreams are so fucking full of shit.

Shit happens.
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers

While I disagree often with you, I thought you were smarter than that.
