Ramadan causing rise in Iraq attacks?

Ramadan is a time of great sacrifice and celebration. Bringing ones family together with triumphant meals daily. Which sounds good and well but the fact is that fasting and not eating can leave people irritable and cranky to say the least. A lack of patience can result quite quickly during Ramadan and can undoubtedly be linked to and uprising of assaulted soldiers and unsubstantiated outbursts.
"In the past two days, at least 19 people were killed in the attacks."

Dissidents have promised to keep up the fight and “to escalate their activities and further their strikes" in this time devoted selflessness. One can only ask how American troops being pulled out regularly can sufficiently help police who have thought this to be them trying to prove something.

Areas such as Jurf al-Sakhr, Baghdad, Mosul, and Baquba have been hotbeds for deaths of civilians and police officers. Though no numbers of great esteem have perished recently, news of small numbers keep popping up of car bombs and mines continuing to add to the growing number of the deceased. In fact there isn't any discrimination being applied when the target is attacked for which even "a leader of an American-allied militia was killed when his booby-trapped car exploded."

Many of these areas vary in the type of attack they represent and the magnitude in which they strike. Offering a whole mess of problems for any would be visitor, public or police. These people have been in a time of self-deprivation and are seemingly growing into insurgents, Ramadan though a peaceful fasting at heart can offer no help to insubordination.

FADE IN

EXT. BASEBALL FIELD - NIGHT

PETER, a 60 year old man, packs up his baseball equipment at
the field. Puts it in his bag and walks toward his car.

PETER
(V.O)
The day that my KELLY was born, the
truth is that I didn't feel much
joy...Because the disappointment
that I felt seemed to be stronger
than the great event of having
child.                      
(beat)                            
I had always wanted a boy. Two days
after the birth, I went to pick up
my two women.

INT. HOUSE - NIGHT

(FLASHBACK)


TANYA normal complexion, a 40 year old woman with black
hair, PETER and KELLY a ten year old girl, sit at the table
and Peter gives Kelly a piece of red-packaged chocolate and
smiles.

PETER
(V.O)
As time went by, I was left
captivated by your smile and began
to love you like crazy.

EXT. BEACH - DAY

Peter and an older 30 year old KELLY are sitting on a trunk
from a dried birch tree on the beach front.

KELLY
You always gave me everything that
I needed. Thankfully I didn't
always get what I asked for because
when I begged the most, was usually
when I needed it the least.

PETER
When you first collapsed at age 11,
I died for the first time. Your
mother and I knew that the chances
of you contracting this type of
disease were high.

KELLY
I wasn't scared. I knew that as
long as I was with you, there was
nothing to fear...But back then I
had no idea what you were capable
of.

PETER
When we were in the hospital and I
found out that you didn't have much
of a chance. I prayed to God and
asked him to help you and give me
the strength to do absolutely
anything to ease the pain and make
you better.

KELLY
At the time, I couldn't understand
why, but today I can truly
appreciate it and say that I won't
ever forget what you did.

PETER
When you asked me if you were going
to die after hearing when the
doctors..

Kelly Interrupts.

KELLY
You promised me that you wouldn't
ever see me pass on.

PETER
..but if you died, you could come
back whenever you wanted...and
visit your Mother and I.

KELLY
You told me that you wouldn't leave
me alone. If one day something were
to happen to you and you were gone
that you'd find a way to still be
around.

PETER
I have yet to think twice or
regretted the decision I made.

Kelly is sitting alone on the tree trunk and all you can
hear is the wind blowing in the background.

KELLY
As a last resort, you would use the
wind to come see me.

Peter walking away dissolves and Kelly notices a piece of
her favourite childhood red-packaged chocolate. She takes a
bite looks up and has one tear sliding down her cheek.
