Pray for the Fallen

As I have said before, I have nothing but the highest respect and admiration for Mohammed and his family at Iraq the Model. Their Blog continues to be the most insightful and inspiring of the Iraqi web sites. Their courage and faith in their Country and it’s future is truelly amazing to see.

Now it seems they have become targets of the murderous cowards that prowl Baghdad’s streets.

Kill us, but you won't enslave us.

Last week our little and peaceful family was struck by the tragic loss of one of its members in a savage criminal act of assassination. The member we lost was my sister's husband who lived with their two little children in our house. He was a brilliant young doctor with a whole future awaiting him, the couple were the top graduates in their branch of specialty.

…..

He was not affiliated with any political party or movement and spent all his time working at the hospital or studying at home and he was dreaming of building a medical center for his specialty to serve the poor who cannot afford going to expensive private clinics.
We didn't know or anticipate that cruel times were waiting for a chance to assassinate the dream and kill the future.
It was the day he was celebrating the opening of a foundation that was going to offer essential services to the poor but the criminals were waiting for him to end his life with their evil bullets and to stab our family deep in the heart.

Condolences, prayers and words of support have poured in from all over the world.

Please read the rest of Mohammed’s post, and send your tears and prayers to his family.

May the Godless Savage Animals that committed this crime, burn today on Earth ….and forever in Hell.
