ufortunately i know first hand what its like to lose someone to pointless random violence... in my case i heard it happen and wrecked my car trying to get there to help.... nothing worse the the helpless feeling of not being able to do anything about it....
i feel your pain and wish you and all who face such dangers day in and day out, the best
Hello LaVerdad, I feel for you and all who risk their lives there every day. It is still dangerous obviously. You are a very strong woman. It is so sad that peace is so far away from some people's minds and hearts.
Just curious, maybe another time, but wonder how long you have lived there, if all your life, or shorter time?

I had an opportunity to work there so I took it, went there in May of this year. Back in the UK at the moment, but getting lots of messages from friends and work. Thank you for your kind words

Everyone is in the same boat out there. Thank you so much.
My prayers go out to those who live there, those who lost their lives and to those with injured friend, colleagues and loved ones. My heart goes out to them.
In a country that had no sectarian violence prior to being invaded. And where the occupying force conducts searches at checkpoints throughout the country.
Where do these hundreds of pounds of explosives come from?
Why would insurgents target their own people instead of the foreign occupiers?
And why wouldn't they just stop the violence so that the invaders would have no justification for their presence.
I don't believer there are any genuine "insurgents" in Iraq except those organized and directed by the US.
All of the bombs, even the ones that kill Americans, are set by the US or their paid proxies. And their sole reason is to justify the continued occupation.
mastic55: It's sad,we the human race. what we do to each other.
It's sad what some of the human race do to each other. Blessedly, the majority are not capable of such violence. My heart is with all who have suffered such senseless loss through any act of terrorism, regardless of how big or small.
