The black heart

Mohammed, Last of Iraqis
About 1,000,000 deaths and 1,500,000 Injured Iraqi civilians since the beginning of the war in 2003 , an estimation of 4,000,000 Iraqis have been displaced with 2,200,000 fled out of the country and the rest are refugees inside their own torn country (I believe the real number of Iraqis outside Iraq is greater than this). Great number , right? a lot of zeros , a lot of grief and sadness , a lot of humiliation , a lot of black clothes , rivers of tears and many shocking stories , it's not just numbers . Just count all the people you knew throughout your life , not only the ones you talk to , but all the people you know, what their count will be? 500 or may be 1000? let's say 1000. Can you imagine that all the people you know are only 0.1% of the civilian casualties in Iraq. with those huge numbers and that great pain , I only want to know why? why all those people had to die? Why all those people had to leave their homes their jobs and their beloved to escape from Iraq and be humiliated , be an immigrant. Why is that? Why Iraqis have to leave their beautiful homes and live in a tent in the middle of the desert , why do they have to be refugees in their own country? Why every scientist , doctor , former army members and jet fighter pilots have to be killed or threatened? Why there is no one left in Iraq? Why did every one leave Iraq to keep his life? Why all of this is happening to Iraq and Iraqis ? I believe what happens in Iraq didn't happen anywhere in the world throughout the history of the mankind....
