27. I've read Riverbend for quite some time.
It just makes me cry. Yep, no running water (not consistently and for some of them, not ever) no consistent electricity, basic medical needs have to be neglected. Sanitary conditions in hospitals? Forget about it.

Kids are DYING from dehydration and malnutrition. And in FAR greater rates than they ever did under SH. It's been ALMOST TWO YEARS since we invaded. This SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING.

WE are the reason there are parents in Iraq RIGHT NOW watching their children die a slow, preventable death.

That alone should make the US bow its head in shame.
