250,000 Iraqis died during the first Gulf War in 1991 when Bush Sr was president, but most of them were soldiers at the front.
1.5 million Iraqis died of starvation and disease during the 1991 2003 embargo on Iraq, when Bush Sr, Clinton and Bush Jr were the presidents. Most of them died under Clinton's watch, and about half of them were children - including infants who died because there were no spare parts for the incubators, people with kidney disease who died because there were no spare parts for the dialisis machines and diabetics who died because there was no insulin.
In the current war, 2003 - , Bush Jr's war, 400,000 Iraqis have died - mostly civilians.
So, all told, since 1991, America has killed 2,150,000 Iraqis - at least 750,000 of whom were kids!

Here we go again...feels just like being back in the 60's. Don't even TRY to make the military look bad. The last thing they want to do is hurt any kids, unlike these terrorists who would love nothing better than to kill every man, woman and child here in the US if they could.
What's the point of this question anyway?

I'm not sure. Just like I'm not sure how many children were killed by Saddam's cruel regime over the past 25 years or how many children's lives were saved now that he is no longer in power and how many children's lives will be saved in the future as democracy is established replacing a totolitarian government ruled by terror. Bottom line: stupid question asked by a truly myopic and partisan person who clearly has no ability to think for himself.

We will never know how many Iraqi children died at the hands of U.S. soldiers. Let's not forget the rapes.
See what U.S. soldiers are doing in Iraq to Iraqi children for yourselves:

NOTE: I will get a lot of thumbs down for this answer but screw it. If pointing out the truth means I will get labeled as a terrorist, then telling the truth was worth it.
To the dumb blind fool above me: please watch the video.

Unfortunately during war innocent people are killed because they are in the wrong place at the wrong time. They are killed BY ACCIDENT. Unlike the INBRED, HALFWIT, CAMEL KISSING TERRORISTS in Iraq who WANTONLY MURDER anyone who is near, our men and women in combat try not to injure civilians, contrary to what your pea sized brain thinks!
You must ENJOY trying to make our military look bad like the MEDIA does! So piss off! You get off by hearing how many kids are killed? Why is that important to you?

If you _really_ cared about those civilians you would be condemning the enemy for killing those civilians - since as you know full well they are the ones deliberately targeting civilians.
