Special Bonus:  
This boy was injured during the American attack on Fidhailiya  May 8, 2008.

The attack started late Wednesday. Three civilians were killed and eight were wounded during the American attack.

With the complete disregard for human life, especially Iraki civilian life, that the Americans have always shown, they fired several missiles from an attack helicopter at homes in the densely populated area.

The photo shows the child crying outside what is left of his home.
