Cole Miller, the founding director of the charity No More Victims explains how ordinary Americans are helping kids injured during the ongoing war in Iraq. In the case he discusses here a little Iraqi girl would have lost her eyesight after her home was hit by a tank round, had it not been for the work of a 22 year old Florida law student who did the groundwork in getting medical and community support to bring this child to the US for treatment.

From their web site:

No More Victims works to obtain medical sponsorships for war-injured Iraqi children and to forge ties between the children, their families and communities in the United States. We believe one of the most effective means of combating militarism is to focus on direct relief to its victims.

2. This is Great, nomorevictems.org , Bushco Owes the Iraqis so much.

I believe that all the great wealth of GWB and DC ought to go to the Peoples of Iraq. Their policies screwed up their lives. The ones who wanted this war, who lied for this war, ought to have their wealth taken away and given to the People of Iraq. I am glad their is this nomorevictems.org I do not have very much expendable income, if I did I would send it forth, but the biggest part of the money ought to come from those responsible. I was against this war from the get-go.
