The invasion and occupation of Iraq in 2003 has caused an explosion in, crime and corruption.The vacuum of an Iraqi authority was visible and prominent after the invasion because of thisa wave of looting and robbery spread throughout the country. Iraq is the country with theenormous oil wealth, but despite its significant oil value, there is not enough supply foryounger generations stuck in the conflict in Iraq. Several years after the US-led invasion,violence has increased, life expectancy has dropped, and children are living in total collapse.Iraq has become one of the worst countries for children in the Middle East. Several publicbuildings, hospitals and schools were left unprotected, which stimulated theft and burglary.The collapse of Iraq's health infrastructure has had detrimental effects on children's physicalhealth, domestic violence, and malnutrition of children in desperate poverty forcing manychildren to drop out of primary school. The number of children dying has increased terriblydue to the war and its aftermath. One in 25 children in Iraq dies before reaching their fifthbirthday. Based on qualitative discourse analysis, I came to the conclusion that it is clear thatseveral thousand children if not millions of children in Iraq are suffering because of Iraq's warhistory. 2003 occupation made it worse for the children such as being tortured, killed, raped,lost part of their bodies and forced to flee their homes and for their lives. Some children haveseen their relatives die in front of them, or at least have seen a dead person, it is also obviousthat these children will have psychological trauma for life.
