Endless Beginnings...
For God's sake, tell me where to begin? I was set out to write about Father's day and the thousands of fatherless Iraqi children.The thousands of killed fathers, the thousands of fathers trying desperately hard to feed their families, daily putting their lives at great risk, in a country gripped by demonic violence.

Bless you and yours.

Thanks for noting it down.
Are you still crying for blood? Here is some news for you: Video of Baghdad teeming with hope
Now what do you have to say about the turnaround in Iraq?
I'll bet the shopkeepers and their customers in the video would be pretty upset if you had any success in resurrecting the insurgency.

Since hope is teeming now in Baghdad.
Let us know when you plan to visit.
And be sure to send us all a photo of you and the family when you get there.
God speed !
PS
In all seriousness, your're an asshole.
