Mahmud Wagaa al-Juburi (C) grieves the death of his five children in Kirkuk, north of Baghdad, 03 August 2007. First Iraqi police found yesterday an eight-year-old boy weeping among the corpses of his murdered elder brothers. The Wagaa brothers were not soldiers or policemen or even rebel fighters: They worked as painters and decorators on short-term government contracts, first in their hometown of Mosul and then further south in Kirkuk.

3. Would this have happened if we hadn't brought freedom & democracy to Iraq?


Fucking neocons. May they burn in eternal hell for what they have done to these people.

6. Jesus, look at the hole in the son's neck! And there are 4 more like it?
I don't think I could handle that. I think I would retreat into madness.

7. And just think how many other families have been touched by this
illegal occupation. Can anyone blame any Iraqi if they're not thrilled with our stirring up this mess?
