A Taste Of Iraq

By doing this post I do not mean to make light of the Virginia Tech tragedies,33 lives are a terrible terrible tragic lost.America is less because of this terrible thing.

If fact,by writing this post,I intend to show how this tragedy-and other tragedies like this one-are more tragic then we assume.

The absurdness and the randomness of this violent act has left most of us Americans numb and reeling.How???Why??

Yet,in Iraq,this type of horror is a weekly event.Just today 233 people are supposed to have died in four such violent attacks.

How could any people anywhere deal with such horror on a weekly basis?Yet,we as Americans(myself included)think so little of the lost of life and the way of life in such a foreign country as Iraq.

The whole thing is beyond me.
