Iraqi's want US to stay awhile
#9
Hello Kandrathe,

"What we don't hear about are things like; did they ever get the electricity or water back on? Are the hospitals running, and do they have an adequate supply of medicines? Are people starving, or do they have enough food? Is there any hope?"

One would think that after all this time such things would be working, but rebuilding after a war takes very long. And it's not only those obvious facilities. The following figures illustrate the effect of the war and aftermath of 1991 on the Iraqi people. And that one was 'mild' compared to the last one.

children dying at birth in 1990: 50 in 1000, in 2001: 133 in 1000
life expactancy in 1991: 62 yrs, in 2002: 56 yrs
illiterates in 1991: 11%, in 1991: 43%

I have no figures for Afghanistan, but we can safely assume there is nothing left there.

We don't seem to make progress in helping the poorer countries in this world.
