Iraq won the 2007 AFC cup!

At first, I was afraid that theirs story will end in tears. But, that's the human spirit for you. They showed the world that in spite of not having the training facilities, or a soccer league of their own. Added to that that their country are in turmoil. Who would have thought that they'll beat Saudi Arabia?

I myself thought that the Saudis were a better team. With highly paid players playing in their top club. I know that they have good quality skillful players. But, yesterday on the match itself they can't match the Iraqis determination to win not just for themselves but for their war-torned country. What a triumph!

All over the news in CNN, BBC talking about that historical win and almost all hope that the politicians should take a lesson from sports and particularly the soccer team. Where in the team there were Muslims, Christians, Kurds, Sunnis and Shias but they manage to unite and work as a team.

Iraq should learn. We all should learn to live together as one people. We are all humans aren't we?

Nahh... we'll never learn.

Point in case? We're still making weapons to kill each other. Aren't we?

Oh yeah, by the way. We are still at war with the world. Not, just in Iraq. But, in Palestine and Israel. In the African countries. There's fire brewing underneath our feet. That fire is waiting to burn us all. We would think that it's just a small harmless fire but that small fire could grew bigger, fanned by hatred among us. It's just a matter of time..

And time is running out for all of us ..
