"I saw my fiancé and father killed on my wedding day" :

This is the Liberation Georgie and his Coalition bought to the innocent people of Iraq, hopefully he be charged with War Crimes at the Hague at some date in the future, for all the death and destruction, that he has created based on his lies.
BAGHDAD, 6 May 2007 (IRIN) - When Rana Jalil, 22, wed her fiancé, 25-year-old engineer Ahmed Adnan on 23 March, after four years of engagement, she did not expect her dream would turn into a nightmare on her wedding day.
On that day Jalil saw dozens of masked militants invade her wedding party. They entered the room where the party was being held and began shooting to death many of those present, including her father, her fiancé and a five-year-old nephew.
"It was cowardice. They destroyed my future and my dreams without excuses, turning my white bridal gown into a lake of blood and pain.
"We were a couple without enemies"
"We were in love for more than four years since we joined university, and when we graduated we decided to marry and build a family. We were a couple without enemies and my Ahmed was always considered by our friends as a helpful and friendly person.
"On our wedding day, we were having fun at 6pm and everyone was jolly when gunmen suddenly broke into the room and started to shoot any person in their way. The last shot hit my fiancé who was by my side, trying to protect me and whom I saw falling over my dress, bleeding and asking for help.
"The two bullets in his chest made him bleed so much and he died a few minutes later. When they left and people were screaming I could see my mother crying and holding the body of a man. Then I realised that my dad too was shot dead.
"I saw my fiancé and father being killed on my wedding day and I cannot bear this pain. Life no longer has meaning for me. They took everything from me and after years of planning a future, the violence of my country took the two persons who were my pillars of support.
"We are now alone without jobs"
"I and mum don't work. I have only one sister and she is married and her husband has barred her from finding a job. We are now alone without jobs. We sell goods, including electronic items and cheap jewelry, from our home to pay the bills and house rent.
"Someone who was in the party heard the [Shi'a] militants say that dozens of people were dying every day and rather than crying for them, we were celebrating and dancing, and for this reason we had to go to the same place the others had gone - the grave.
"It isn't fair. We have the right to be happy in the middle of so much suffering. We were trying to start a new life, raise a family and let people who love us share in our conquest, but the militants knew how to shatter such a beautiful future.
"My only hope is that they suffer the same pain I'm suffering now. I don't believe in revenge because I'm a true Muslim but God is powerful enough to make them pay for such a cruel attitude."
