On the 17th anniversary of the invasion of Iraq , Mark Scibilia-Carver tells us about his website and the Scroll of Remembrance he created for American Catholics (or at least those who had Catholic funerals) who have died in this pre-emptive, unjust, and unnecessary war. Let us pray for and grieve the loss of all victims of the "War on Terror."
