According to the BBC
“Violence continued in Iraq on Thursday as 13 people were killed and 28 injured in a bomb at a Baghdad market, while an evening car bombing killed five, and injured at least 13, police said.”
The misery goes on, but another obstacle towards peace was hopefully removed today. Iraq certainly doesn’t need any further deaths, but it arguably needed this necessary evil. It certainly won’t end the insurgency or the sectarian violence, but his demise is another small and necessary step.
Some fifteen years ago Beruit was a by-word for civil war. Lebanon has come a long was since then.
"No dictator, no invader, can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever. There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom. Against that power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand." - J. Michael Straczynski
