Ali update....

NPR reported this morning that Ali, the little boy who lost his family and both his arms to an American missile strike, has been airlifted by Americans from Baghdad to a hospital in Kuwait City.

Now, if we could just do this for all the people gravely wounded in Iraq as a result of our invasion, who now find themselves languishing in hospitals looted of all critical medicines, equipment and supplies. Many of them would still have no families, homes or jobs to return to if or when they recovered. But it would be a start.
