About the Iraqi Person Database

The data for the Iraqi people listed on this site was originally compiled by Iraq Body Count (IBC) as of Sunday, 16th March 2008. This specific compilation is copyrighted to Iraq Body Count (IBC) and is used here as non-commercial display to honor and remember all of the Iraqi Citizens who have been killed as result of the illegal U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq.

The reports from which IBC compile this database have all been in the public domain. The database is a list of all named or partially identified individuals in the IBC database together with some of the personal details that are known about them. This IBC database is constantly being updated, and this website may not have the latest version of the list. The latest version can always be obtained from: http://www.iraqbodycount.org/database/download/ibc-individuals.php

Concerned citizens and advocacy groups have for several years drawn attention to Iraqi victims of the war in public readings and displays using compilations of names drawn from
Iraq Body Count and other sources.

As you use and review the names on this website, please remember and give due honor to the as-yet unidentified dead who are not in this list, and whose numbers far exceed the named or partially identified victims.

For every identified individual on the current list there are another 21 confirmed Iraqi civilians killed for whom we do not have identifying information. In contrast, virtually every coalition soldier who has been killed can be identified by name and other biographical information.

There is no organized effort to name all of the victims of the U.S occupation of Iraq. Only when all have been identified and duly recorded can there be any real discussion of respecting their memory.

To those who knew and loved and miss these people, we offer our sincere condolences.
