George Bush's Baghdad:

Ms. Shaima said her two sons now carried guns at night to protect her and her neighbors. The Shiite-led Iraqi government will not protect them because the Shiites “want to finish us,” she said. “They will start breaking into our houses, raping us in front of our children, then killing us with our kids,” she added. “They will let Iraq reach a point where Palestinian misery will seem like a picnic.”

The NYT has more on how we turned centuries of vibrant sectarian interaction into violence, isolation, and paranoia between former neighbors and friends. I am sick.
