Aid and restoration for the war-torn

Thousands of men and women have fought in Iraq. Millions of civilians have endured the horrors of war. Gradually they are coming home.

Millions are returning home in a different way. These are the viewers who are turning from virtual reality battlegrounds to everyday concerns. Many of us are now leaving our electronic bleachers where, along with the rest of the world, we've been watching for the first time in history, the real time flow of a war from multiple vantage points. Are we, any more than the Iraqi people, going back to life as it was? That's probably impossible.

The world is like a baby awaking from sleep and crying out to be fed. There are those who grieve for lost loved ones, those who feel humiliated, those who have seen their life's work destroyed, those searching for family members.
