with the departure of U.S. troops from Iraq after 8 years of the war to topple Saddam in 2003, The Independent focused on the victims of the war years of the Iraqis and I wondered back 3 million Iraqi refugees to their country again? Despite the words of U.S. President Barack Obama and his defense minister, Leon Panetta, in front of their troops, You leave Iraq with pride and with great pride,
And reaffirmed that the sacrifices American soldiers made the hope of prosperity and peace for the future of the Iraqi people and helped to get rid of the tyranny, but the numbers that refer to Iraqi victims tells a great tragedy.
It is not far from the place of these statements there is shocking evidence that would disprove the allegations that the Americans would leave the ground greater stability and prosperity, For close to live 8 thousand people in appalling conditions and fields of mud, water, mold in huts made from pieces of wood and broke.
The people of camp trips are among the 1.3 million refugees were driven families from their homes by sectarian violence between 2006 and 2007 , have fled 1.6 million others to neighboring countries, especially Jordan and Syria, and those deported to Syria are forced under the current political tensions to flee to another refuge.
A third group at risk, where he worked about 70 thousand people with American forces, and although they received promises U.S. to provide for asylum the security of the few who were able to obtain asylum, and despite that Congress passed in 2008 a draft law that would grant immigrant visas for 25 thousand people, but that 3 thousand only those who were able to travel.
is that there are about 450 thousand displaced people persons living in the worst conditions, since they are trapped, according to the term Independent, in settlements scattered across the country, and they have little chance or no access to clean water or medical care, and many of them can not obtain the necessary documents for registration of the Social Relief, or took a job or register their children in school.
