PHA-Exchange> Re: [PHA-Europe] Belgian doctors to Baghdad

[pamzinkin]

The Belgian doctors have my heartfelt respect. I hope they are safe and are 
able to help the people of Iraq. Look through the shock and awe 
gallery  http://www.marchforjustice.com/id191.htm
to see the huge medical need.
Make Health not War. This is the right message for this moment for health 
workers.
