Dear Reader,
In a community south of Baghdad, a female suicide bomber blew herself up, killing at least 38 and seriously injuring 72 more. In the wreckage of this bloody scene, bodies and body parts were scattered among people clinging to life.
Because bombs make victims of everyone in their path, this one struck a baby about two months old hitting the infant in the stomach with shrapnel.
As the frightened baby lay on the ground crying, it began throwing up blood, and it bled from its tummy. The severely wounded mother reached out for her baby but collapsed. At last report, the mother is still alive and her baby is being cared for by her family.
This nearly six year old war has made a tragedy of Iraq and this disaster continues to this day. If you are a religious person, please say a prayer for the Iraqi people with hope in your heart this war will soon end.
But whoever you are, please raise your voice to stop it. Don't be so callous as to turn a blind eye to this catastrophe.
Dick
