Maybe Just Maybe.....
After watching the news today of the 49 men that were martyred I felt empty. For the first time in a long time I couldnt utter a word. I tried so hard to come up with some words, but nothing came out except a tiny sound of disbelief and disgust. I dunno what to say, there's nothing that I can say or do that will change the situation. I am angry, I am sad, I am shocked, Im basically speechless....
Those innocent men, went to get trained to become our new Army, the future of Iraq, and they were murdered in cold blood. Where is justice???Where is God. (Istaghfurallah). My God forgive me, for asking where he is?. But WHY????WHY innocent people are dying and the fucking animal barbaric criminals still roaming the streets, killing the youth of Iraq. Maybe God is trying to save those innocent souls from living in such a barbaric world that knows nothing about emotions, beliefs and LIFE....Im sorry I have nothing else to say, except MAY THEIR INNOCENT SOULS REST IN PEACE....
I came upon my fellow bloggee's blog, Baghdad, check out today's post.Thanks Baghdad for bringing thise video to light. It made me hold on(and Im really struggling here), to whatever tiny HOPE I had, Maybe just Maybe, HUBBY is right, and Iraq will be one day the peaceful, the free, the democratic Iraq we all are dreaming of. Maybe just Maybe HUBBY is right, and all those low life animals will be erased from the earth of of our IRAQ.....

Hi Neurotic Wife,
You're very welcome for linking the website in your blog, you didn't even have to identify where you got it from hehe. I'm just in a shitty mood as you are really. I've been utterly destroyed by the actions of these criminals. Now I'm only hoping for us to be optimistic because I'm gonna assume one day we, Iraqis outside Iraq are going to go nuts if we don't look on the bright side.
But is there really a bright side to this?
What is it we got out of this war? I still don't get it. The only thing I see is there's no more looking at Saddam 24hours everyday on tv or the streets,now Iraqis get higher salaries better than before and the water is more clean now. What else? The rest is all the same. Still killing, still suffering, still afraid. Allah yasaa3idna...wala 3ala 7athna Neurotic Wife, abadan i7nal Iraqiyeen ma 3aysheen fi 7ayaat 3adiya bidoon qatil o mashakil. Allah yer7amna jamee3an inshallah.
And inshallah your hubby is right and will be right. It's good on him that he has such hope for this to work because we still can't the hang of hoping so much.

I'm sorry you are feeling so bad. I am too - and I think we have to chalk it up to a bad day and face everything in the morning again. This is a painful and bloody struggle and I'm sure there are times when we ask - is it worth it? and is it working? We know that the struggle is worth it - the only way that it won't work is if we give up. There will be bad days when we have not much hope and then the day of much hope will come around again. Good people are going to die. It is up to all of us to ensure that those lives will not have been lost in vain. In the meantime know that most of America is behind you and willing to continue the fight until it is won. We will all bury our dead, offer their souls up to God and pray for the strength to continue. There is no other option. I am praying for you and for your country. Get a good nights sleep and we will tackle it again in the morning. That is all we can do.
The more I think about this, the more I'm thinking these guys didn't need protection, they needed guns. They had just completed training, so they should have been quite capable of protecting themselves if they had been properly armed.
If this was the case, we'd be reading a story today about a bunch of dead terrorists along the roadside, not a bunch of dead Iraqi soldiers.

PS: I put up a link to your blog from mine today - hope you don't mind.
I am quickly losing my sympathy with passive Iraqis who only "dream" of a free Iraq. The millions of "dreaming" Iraqis are the problem. The people of Iraq have an unbelievably historic opportunity to change their society, their government, their lives, and their future. The cost of change is obviously extreme, but so much good can be the result. Whether or not one agrees with the presence of the devil Americans in your country, and God forbid that you might actually work together with the hated Great Satan (apologies to Iran -- do they own that sobriquet), there are indeed some Iraqis who seem to understand the unique opportunity that America is offering, know what sacrifices are required to leap-frog the country several generations ahead, and are prepared to pay the price by doing their part in cooperation with the infidel invaders. Other Iraqis, seemingly the majority, are in my view just dreamers and will do nothing more than complain and complain and complain, lifting not a finger to improve their OWN country and take advantage of this historic opportunity. Recall the old slogan from the 1960s -- "If you are not part of the solution then you are part of the problem." I, too, wish Saddam was back in power and in control; the Iraqi people and Saddam deserve each other. As it was in Vietnam, the time has come for the U.S. to simply declare victory, fold the tents, get back to our own borders, and stop playing around in the Middle East. It's time to see the people for what they are. It's not worth it.
DREAMING? what the heck are you talking about anonymous?
why don't you just shut up and save us your bad breath?
Had you been in Iraqi shoes of wars and catastrophes for over twenty years your bloody ass would have probably understood how Iraqi people feel.
It's like a sprinter who reaches the finish line after running thrity or forty miles but too exhausted even to draw one single breath. that's how it feels you idiot, try to understand::::
things were HELL and still are and with death lurking around every corner what could those toothless and powerless people do?

Like many, I was saddened by the news of the martyrdom of the young men who wanted only to help their country and angered and revolted by the evil of the selfish and twisted deviants who derive pleasure from destroying the country and murdering its good men.
We readers have lived in relative prosperity long enough that we can barely imagine what it feels like to live on the knife's edge, perilously close to annihilation, but surviving on desperately whispered hopes and prayers and dreams.
Yet all around the world, every one of us can name ancestors who have done just that: who have survived terrible ordeals, starvation, disease, and unrelenting warfare: ancestors who, in the past 100 years, had been taken prisoner, eaten rats, fled from danger, and watched their own children die.
For many people in the world, it took much time, but ultimately, the unshakeable fog of despair and tragedy was soundly defeated by the equallly unshakeable hearts and faith of courageous ordinary women and men who mirrored all the anguished emotions and despair of ourselves.
That we are all sitting here today is a testament to the fact that our ancestors did indeed survive those trying times, and that there was indeed light at the end of the tunnel and that our own ancestors were not fools for believing in the light.

How tragic. My heart and prayers go out to the families of these victims.
neurotic wife,
i am curious that woman who still cries for saddam
her first letter of her name start with an R?
thats all i want to know!
Lol Sami, yam3awwad akoo many R's, and I know an R that says this but no thats not who I had in mind, its some old lady.
I wanna comment on Mr anonymous the guy who stopped sympathising with "passive" Iraqis. excuse me for asking, but who asked you to sympathise in the first place????what do you think will happen if the coolition forces leave now??Do you really think that those idiotic insurgency will stop their criminal activities??? Do you really believe in that???And if they truely are seen as people who "care" so much about their country, why is it that they are targetting schools, and kids, are kids also collaborators???Are ordinary Iraqis walking in the streets minding their own business collaborators as well????Please spare me this logic. What are the political agenda for these so called insurgency???Who is their representative???If they truely are legitimate why dont they show their damn faces to the world and say with all courage what they really want....
