Each month the death toll in Iraq mounts as men, women and children are killed in monthly numbers approaching the U.S. "surge" in 2007-2008. http://news.antiwar.com/2013/10/01/1271-killed-iraqs-september-toll-shows-violence-still-on-the-rise/
What this tells us is even when the U.S. ends the war it launched, the horrors continue and with no end in sight. Families pay a horrific price in dead and wounded and Iraq is left in shambles.
It is with our prayers we reach out to our brethren which are the Iraqi people and all of the other victims of that war, including U.S. and allied troops and their families.
