Iranian Hospital Treating Iraqi Children Born With Defects from U.S. Depleted Uranium

Surely this must be some kind of a crime on the part of Iran?  Or can the children perhaps be charged with trading with the enemy?

From Information Clearing House:

"The waiting list for treatment in Baghdad is endless and time is never on the side of the patients," says Al- Sailhi from the barracks that host his NGO headquarters next to the hospital.

"Besides, these children's diseases also lead to economic ruin of their families. Those who can afford it pay up to 7,000 dollars in Syria or up to 12,000 dollars in Jordan for treatment. The cheapest option is Iran, with rates at an average of 5,000 dollars. 

"Today, families are flocking to Tehran for their children to be treated. Many of them are sleeping in the streets because they can't afford to pay a hotel room."
