Civilian Casualties in the 2003 Iraq War: A Compendium of Accounts and Reports. compiled by Melissa Murphy and Carl Conetta of the Project on Defense Alternatives. This compendium collects excerpts of journalistic and other accounts of the civilian cost of the Iraq war in three categories: 1. Reports from hospitals and cemeteries that provide partial overviews of the extent of civilian and other casualties in the 2003 Iraq war; 2. Accounts of individual incidents of civilian fatalities resulting from combat operations; and, 3. Accounts pertaining to public health and hospital conditions during the war and after. The compendium is meant to serve as a database for further investigation of the modes and dynamics of conflict that generate non-combatant casualties.
