There is no future for any Iraqi people.
Not just for the orphan babies, for all the Iraqi people. We don't have any future."

Orphans like Fatema, selling incense for pennies, aren't hard to find on Baghdad's streets. At 11 years old, dodging cars, she's barely more than a beggar, CBS News correspondent Mark Strassmann reports. "We're orphans," Fatema says. Why don't they go to school? "Because we need the money," she says. Baghdad has thousands of orphans -- no one knows the exact number. There are too many for the eight orphanages in Iraq's capital city. Some facilities crowd 10 kids to a small bedroom. Other than the orphanages, will anyone take these children? Makes very sad read - what is the future of Iraq and the middle east!
