While he was able to die peacefully surrounded by family at 84, 1 in every 5 Iraqis has someone in their family who died because of the invasion of Iraq. More than half of all babies born in Fallujah between 2007 and 2010 were born with a birth defect. The average lifespan in Iraq is 70.
He gets to be solemnly eulogized and remembered as a decent man in America, but the rest of the world thinks a hell of a lot differently about him.
