  6.     No matter whom history finally blames for the Gulf War,
  7. Iraq's children have suffered most. A report in the New England
  8. Journal of Medicine, issued by doctors at eminent institutions
  9. including the Harvard School of Public Health, says that
  10. mortality tripled among children ages five and under as a
  11. consequence of the war itself and the trade sanctions that
  12. preceded and followed it. That comes to nearly 47,000 additional
  13. kids who died between January and August 1991 -- the result of
  14. decisions made mostly by adult men.
