    Amplify’d from www.disinfo.com

    golfAs we pull our troops out following eight years in Iraq, Barack Obama earlier this week called it a “moment of success” that came at heavy cost — “nearly 4,500 Americans made the ultimate sacrifice.” The president made no mention of the cost to Iraqis, so Juan Cole has this to add:

    Population of Iraq: 30 million


    Percentage of Iraqis who lived in slum conditions in 2000: 17



    Percentage of Iraqis
    who live in slum conditions in 2011: 50


    Number of the 30 million Iraqis living below the poverty line: 7 million.


    Number of Iraqis who died of violence 2003-2011: 150,000 to 400,000.



    Orphans in Iraq
    : 4.5 million.


    Orphans living in the streets: 600,000.


    Number of women, mainly widows, who are primary breadwinners in family: 2 million.


    Iraqi refugees displaced by the American war to Syria: 1 million


    Internally displaced persons in Iraq: 1.3 million


    Proportion of displaced persons who have returned home since 2008: 1/8


    Rank of Iraq on Corruption Index among 182 countries: 175
