US Stands Against Child Soldier Use
December 18, 2008 2 Comments

Child rights advocate Jo Becker of Human Rights Watch had this to say –
US weapons should not end up in the hands of children nor should US taxpayer dollars finance the exploitation of children in armed conflict.
According to the 2008 Child Soldiers Global Report recently published by the Coalition to Stop the Use of Child Soldiers, at year-end 2007, children were involved in 17 armed conflicts around the world.
