More than 100 dead in Baghdad Blasts...no month can pass in Iraq where there's no blast, no new orphans and widows and graves. Just when you think of a possibility of your country's situation getting better, just when you're attempting to start to dream of living peacefully, you're reminded that you shouldn't have such a dream. There should be a new explosion to always keep you on your toes. No Iraqi's mind should rest in peace. No Iraqi should assume that he's definitely going back home that day. Some Iraqis die and other Iraqis have to watch and wait for their turn. No Iraqi should have sweet dreams. Not in Iraq atleast.
More than 100 dead. More than 100 families will be short of one person tonight. More than 100 children will be orphans tonight. Then they'll be added to a list of orphans for people to sponsor. They'll each have a sheet with their photo, information about them and how their fathers died. Then someone faraway will look at the orphan's paper for a second and decide whether the orphan is cute enough to be sponsored. If he is, he won't sleep hungry tomorrow night, he'll wear new clothes in a month maybe, maybe he'll finally sleep on a mattress like he used to a long time ago, maybe he'll smell better if he's cute enough. But if he's not cute enough, nothing will change. And his fate will wait till the next person looks at his paper and photo. Will this next person find him cute?
