Reflecting on the human costs of Iraq

We need to sober up and face the results for the Iraqi people -- innocent of 9/11 but selected by us as scapegoats. The United Nations estimated the Iraqi population at about 26 million in 2003. Of that number, an estimated 5 million became internal or external refugees. Depleted uranium has poisoned the environment. A recent study of cancer rates in Fallujah found a four-fold increase in all cancers and a 12-fold increase in childhood cancers. While Hiroshima produced a 17-fold increase in leukemia, there is a 38-fold increase in Fallujah.
