One hundred lives

Dunno if this is more appropriate for the WA or General Forum. Anyways, an interesting attempt i thought.

The personal stories include those of deceased Iraqi civilians as well as Iraqi, British, and American soldiers.

One hundred lives, The Guardian

We will probably never know how many people died in the Iraq war, let alone much about them. For the coalition dead we have some details, but about the largest group of those killed, Iraqi soldiers, we know almost nothing.

In the month since the US declared an end to major combat operations, Guardian journalists have been talking to relatives of the deceased of all nationalities and collecting information in order to tell their life stories. One hundred such stories are included in this issue.

Interesting concept.. good for bringing some objectivity to the conflict.

Were the stories published yet? It says "in this issue" but I couldn't find them? I would like to read some.

i hope you find it a worthwhile read.
