Where have all the children gone?

I was reminded today of why this war horrified me right from the start.
The first civilian injuries to catch my attention were those of a 12 year old Iraqi boy. He lost his entire family and his arms. How does a child endure such physical and physicilogical pain? Ali is slowly recovering physically. However, he is just one of hundreds of thousands of children who are suffering in this world, all because of the insanity of the adults around them.
