Iraq: Decade of Hell

I'm not going to lie, I am terrified by things likes this. Firstly because I remember watching the build up and beginning of this War and buying it all without question and not stopping to question the media spin on it. Now looking back on it, the statistics speak for themselves:

The numbers of dead and injured is staggering, both on the Iraqi and U.S. sides. It really is too much to bear.
