Helping Iraqis

And so it continues in Iraq:

"BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — Two car bombs exploded near the interior minister's offices today, killing 18 people and wounding three dozen. Al-Qaida in Iraq claimed responsibility for the blasts, which caused the biggest death toll from an explosion in more than a month."

The ongoing daily slaughter of innocents shows no signs of letting up. The US/UK invasion has delievered the people of Iraq to the gateways of hell. I noticed today how the AP and other news agency have photos of the aftermath of the terrorists bombings, yet they had no photos earlier this week of the US bombing that killed 20 civilians. Why is that?

Raed Jarrar, and his family, are trying to help the people in Fallujah and other hard-hit areas by bringing them medical supplies. You can read about this, and see pictures of what they have bought with the money donated to them at this blog:

I made a contribution a while back. I hope you will too! It is far, far from doing enough to meet the needs of the people of Iraq, but it is a start.
