Financial Times: More than 100,000 killed in one of Middle East’s bloodiest years



WNU Editor: The civil war in Syria, the conflict in Iraq, the war against the Islamic State, civil war in Libya and Yemen, the Israel - Hamas war in the Gaza strip, terrorism attacks throughout the region .... it is easy to see how this 100,000 number was reached. The scary part is that there is now a real possibility that in 2015 these wars and conflicts are going to escalate, and will probably take even more lives.
