The fighting in Iraq intensifies, day by day, month by month, inspite of the handover of power to Iraqis back in June, with the hatred and bitterness against America continuing and growing without any near solution.
In the holy city of Najaf, where prophet Muhammad's son-in-law was buried, US forces still attempt furious assaults on Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr's militia's positions which hold on desperately. In other cities, fighting between the US and al-Sadr's militia rage on.
Though public opinion is with al-Sadr and his forces, both sides have done wrong in my opinion, and it just goes to show how prevalent evil is in, how it spreads and corrupts, no matter which side.

In another part of the world though same continent, Nepal, a bitter civil war continues as Maoist- rebel forces blockade the capital Kathmandu. Both sides- government and rebels, have been accused of atrocities. This is sadly the case in many wars and conflicts.
