Modern conflicts involving the United States have not seen child casualty figures of this magnitude in such a short timeframe.<\/p>\n<p><b>Child Casualties in the Middle East<\/b><br \/>\nAccording to recent UNICEF reports, over 1,100 children have been killed or injured in the Middle East since the start of the Iran conflict on February 28, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>This figure represents a concentrated 10-day spike, which is unprecedented in modern U.S. military engagements. While U.S. forces have historically been involved in conflicts with high cumulative child casualties, the speed and intensity of this recent spike are unmatched.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From the album &#8220;<a href=\"\/albums\/Billions\/\">Billions<\/a>&#8220;<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Silence] [Instrumental, Guitar, Piano, Organ, Synth, Bass, Percussion, Drums] [Intro] [Instrumental Intro: Pulsing Bass, Organ Swell, Muted Guitar Chops, Rising Synth Filter] [Minimal Beat, Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal] Has the ending just begun&#8230; (Whatever happened to freedom?)
