I'm sorry for you and for your girlfriend's family. I hope and pray they aren't hurt ... was going to write more but my heart breaks for them and for others as I write this. :'( I'm sorry that doesn't mean much coming from a randomer across the internet.

I try to remember the situation here is more complex than the parts I know about and read about, but having heard of what the insurgents are doing to civilians, and the glee at killing and degradation and massacre, I'm disgusted and sickened. And disgusted at people gleefully supporting such murder.
