All the children dying in Iraq aren't dying of disease
Some are simply being killed:
A US helicopter gunship attacked a public school in Diyala Province, killing seven children and wounding another three, police said.That report was from Prensa Latina; the only other report of this incident is from BBC News, who dutifully reports the pro forma U.S. non-denial denial:
A spokesman for the US military said there had been helicopter activity in the area but he was not able to confirm any other details.No U.S. sources have yet reported this attack. After all, the U.S. military hasn't confirmed it, so it must not have happened.
