Speaking of children

It would be refreshing to see as much concern for the post-utero ones who face a daily onslaught of physical and psychological trauma, all in the name of "democracy" (aka "war profiteering").

From the NY Times, July 3, 2007:



"Iraqi boys staged a mock execution Monday in Baghdad, with a 4-year-old, center, playing the role of the condemned. Children in Iraq have been heavily influenced by violence. Among other games the youngsters play is one that imitates a clash between militias and the police."
Shame.
