Grenadian David Douglas has condemned the US-led war in Iraq, two days after his son, British-born CBS cameraman Paul Douglas was killed by a car bomb in Baghdad.

"I think the Americans should get their butt out of there already, and let the people carry on with their lives," Mr Douglas who is mourning the death of his forty-six year old son, told BBC Caribbean in an interview.

He spoke from his home in Grenada where he relocated eight years ago after living in the UK for several years.

"Too many young people are losing their lives. I mean, my son dying now, and he had a young wife, and they have two daughters and three lovely grand children, and he has just been cut off like that at the age of forty-six," Mr Douglas said.
