30 years ago it started. 8 year it lasted. It effects will be felt, echoed for many decades still to come.
It put fear in the hearts of millions, cost millions of lives and unbelievable amounts of money of course.

I remember so much fear during the 8 years. It seemed never ending and was the worst thing that can happen to one. Although I saw direct effects far more rarely than those in the south and west, it did and would not stop. It went on and on. For no reason whatsoever. I hated every minute and can tell far too many negative experiences about it. (later later Bloggies)

I just want to commemorate or note this day somehow. 30 years ago!!!!!!!!!!! Iraq attacked Iran and a war was waged for EIGHT long long years. I can only wish for peace. I can only be a pacifist. That IS all.
