Very Deadly September for Iraq

September was the deadliest month for Iraq, in over five years.

Nine hundred and seventy-nine people were killed in acts of terrorism, the grand majority of whom were civilians.

More than double that number were injured in the attacks.

With three months to go, 2013's total is already at five thousand seven hundred and forty, which is already more than were killed in 2012.

Terror attacks have continued to increase as the Syrian civil war continues to push on the strained relations between Shiites and Sunnis.

Many Iraqis fear that the continued violence will send their own country back into civil war.
