The true face of WAR...........Ali Ismail Abbas, 12, wounded during an airstrike, lies in a hospital bed in Baghdad, April 6, 2003. Abbas was fast asleep when war shattered his life. A missile obliterated his home and most of his family, leaving him orphaned, badly burned and blowing off both his arms. 'It was midnight when the missile fell on us. My father, my mother and my brother died. My mother was five months pregnant,' the traumatized boy told Reuters at Baghdad's Kindi hospital. 'Our neighbours pulled me out and brought me here. I was unconscious,' he said on Sunday.
Sorry, but these things are happening, don't turn away
