  • pehaps alittle of both, though I do believe this type of death is far more common. So whatt will this person do now? How has his mindset changed? Who does he blame. Who does he ultimatley blame?

  • Every reporter you hear who is working in Iraq is overwhelmed by the depth of the violence on the society. Everyone in Iraq has suffered from some aspect of it, and everyone has a story of a brother, father, friend, son, uncle who has been killed.

    The death counts are just one measure, there's also the threats, the assaults, the kidnappings.....
