Who is left in Iraq?

A suicide bomber killed more than 30 people in a cafe in Baghdad yesterday. Daily we hear of these huge number of people killed, 100s every week, thousands ... I can't imagine the huge cost of this on iraq - its present and its future. The most able bodied and able minded are killed daily and what is left but a society of the old and the young. It is hard to fathom the instability in iraq and the cost of this war of choice.

You hear of bombs that kill the iraqi police so often - it amazes me that all policemen have not deserted their jobs. That there are still people who are willing to put their life at such risk. Of course there is the fact that people have to eat.

Compare this life with what what we live through daily and let us never forget our blessings.
