If you actually look up the history, you'll understand that Iraq has been undergoing weekly bombing for the last 14 years. 1991-present. With 2003-present being a little harsher than the previous 11.

Take a moment to think: How would you feel if the most powerful military in /history/ had been bombing your land, the very one you live in, the one your grandmother lived in, been bombing regularly, with friends dying every once in a while, because the bombs would fall randomly, or miss targets, and people would die, so there were lots of funerals, and they'd bombed the water plant, so the water gave you the shits all the time, and the electricity was only on 15 hours a day, and fresh food is impossible to get, but everyone smokes cigarettes..

Think about that. Think about how much that hurts. How much pain that is. How to stop that pain instead of making it worse. How do you do that?? You.
