War of the Iraq

New analysis of civilian casualties in Iraq: Report unveils comprehensive details

"A Dossier on Civilian Casualties in Iraq, 2003-2005" is the first detailed account of all non-combatants reported killed or wounded during the first two years of the continuing conflict. The report, published by Iraq Body Count in association with Oxford Research Group, is based on comprehensive analysis of over 10,000 media reports published between March 2003 and March 2005.

Findings include:

Who was killed?

· 24,865 civilians were reported killed in the first two years.
· Of those killed, 82% were adult males and 18% were women and children.
· Baghdad alone recorded almost half of all deaths (11,264).
· Fallujah recoded 1,874
· Nasiriyah recorded 984
· Kabala recorded 929
· Najaf recorded 784
· Mosul recorded 735
· Basra recorded 704
· Kirkuk recorded 613
· Hilla recorded 456
· Tikrit recorded 312
· Baqouba recorded 304
· Samarra recorded 255

When did they die?

· 30% of civilian deaths occurred during the invasion phase before 1 May 2003.
· Post-invasion, the number of civilians killed was almost twice as high in year two (11,351) as in year one (6,215).

Who did the killing?

· US-led forces killed 37% of civilian victims.
· Anti-occupation forces/insurgents killed 9% of civilian victims.
· Post-invasion criminal violence accounted for 36% of all deaths.
· Killings by anti-occupation forces, crime and unknown agents have shown a steady rise over the entire period.

What was the most lethal weaponry?

· Over half (53%) of all civilian deaths involved explosive devices.
· Air strikes caused most (64%) of the explosives deaths.
· Children were disproportionately affected by all explosive devices but most severely by air strikes and unexploded ordnance (including cluster bomblets).

How many were injured?

· At least 42,500 civilians were reported wounded.
· The invasion phase caused 41% of all reported injuries.
· Explosive weaponry caused a higher ratio of injuries to deaths than small arms.
· The highest wounded-to-death ratio incidents occurred during the invasion phase.

Who provided the information?

· Mortuary officials and medics were the most frequently cited witnesses.
· Three press agencies provided over one third of the reports used.
· Iraqi journalists are increasingly central to the reporting work.

Speaking today at the launch of the report in London, Professor John Sloboda, FBA, one of the report's authors said: "The ever-mounting Iraqi death toll is the forgotten cost of the decision to go to war in Iraq. On average, 34 ordinary Iraqis have met violent deaths every day since the invasion of March 2003. Our data show that no sector of Iraqi society has escaped. We sincerely hope that this research will help to inform decision-makers around the world about the real needs of the Iraqi people as they struggle to rebuild their country. It remains a matter of the gravest concern that, nearly two and half years on, neither the US nor the UK governments have begun to systematically measure the impact of their actions in terms of human lives destroyed."

When the war come to end? children's life is in? When Iraq will be free from terrorist and U.S. army? God only know it.

what we can do is pray for our people, that only we can do.

President Kalam’s dream

Twenty-five years ago, on July 18, 1980, India joined the space club with the successful flight of the 22-meter-tall, 17-tonne Satellite Launch Vehicle – 3. In an interview, President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, who was the SLV-3 project director, look back at the successes of India’s space programme and presents a wish-list for the future.


Some years ago, at a meeting of the Madras Institute of Technology Alumni Association, you said that as an engineering student there it was a joy to study the structure of an aircraft. How did you get interested in aircraft and rocketry?

It all started when I was a 10-year-old boy. I was studying in the 5th class at the Rameswaram Panchayat Elementary School. We had a teacher. His name was Sivasubramania Iyer. He used to teach geography, science and hygiene. One day, he was teaching us how birds flew. He drew a diagram on the blackboard, depicting the wings, the tail and the body structure with the head. He explained how birds created the lift and flew. He also explained to us how birds changed direction while flying. Many of us did not understand it. I said I did not.
Our teacher said he would take all of us to the seashore. That evening, the whole class was at the seashore at Rameswaram. He showed how the seabirds flew, how the seagulls flew. He indicated to us what the birds did to flap their wings and what their tails did. He explained to us all those things. The way Siavasubramania Iyer explained, I understood it. But the important thing was from that day he injected into me the dream of something to do with flight. I did not know flight science. But he definitely injected into me how to dream, to have a dream, to fly high, and secondly, to do something later with the science of flight… the seeding. That is how it started.

Like this, anybody has dreams like fly high?
