I am an Iraqi, what do you guys think when you hear this or....?

First thing I think of is muslim extremists who killed friends of mine and wounded others including me while we were just trying to help them make a better life and future for them and their children. I also think of all the people I saw there who needed help, who helped my friends and I, and who believed in making a better life, and gave their life trying to make that a possibility. I think about the children and who will take care of them, I wonder what happened to some Iraqis I knew there. I hope that someday there will be lasting peace in Iraq and a better life for the people there, and I hope I can go back visit and know that it was not all for nothing, the people there made good use of the opportunities we provided for them.
