U.S. Gives Iraqi Hospitals Broken Promises in Place of Medicine

<<"We are getting less medical supplies now than we were during the sanctions," said Dr. Namin Rashid, the Chief Resident Doctor at Yarmouk Hospital>>

<<In the impoverished slum area of Sadr City, home to over 1.2 million people, doctors in Chuwader General Hospital spoke of even worse shortages. "We are short of every medicine," said Dr. Qasim Al-Nuwesri, the General Manager of the hospital. "This rarely occurred before the invasion. It is forbidden, but sometimes we have to reuse , even the needles, because we have no choice.">>

much more in article and photos
