Day by day images of Iraq contrast on the news with what's happening in the Western world the soldiers left behind.

Day by day politicians debate exit strategies, increases and decreases in forces, political manoeuvrings etc. whilst sitting in the comfort of their offices.

Day by day newborn babies die, widows are born, armed forces personnel absorb images to replay in their minds for the rest of their lives, soldiers lose once loved limbs and all lose hope of peace and sanity.

Day by day the politicians ponder, the arms traders profit, construction crews build on Iraqi soil for US gain and Iraq still burns, mothers still weep and the decay sets in.

Day by day billions of dollars is poured into corrupt contractors and wasted time, arms and munitions - how about rebuilding Iraq, how about connecting the essential services like electricity and water rather than connecting the dots of manipulated intelligence to form excuses and avoid justice?

Day by day protesters around the world struggle to be acknowledged, shout without being heard, march without destination. Voters in the US used the midterms to shout for an end to the war in Iraq -- but the spin doctors are fighting back. Attempting to reframe another election for their own gain, trying to say Iraq wasn't the only reason for the vote. But they lie, it was the biggest reason and they are still deaf to its echo.

And now Afghanistan is the target for long-term loss of life, suffering and cost.

Day by day...
