Good morning...
I am still in Amman... the weather is cold and rainy...but it is beautiful.
Things in Baghdad are still unsettled, and unencouraging. I do not know whether to go back, or remain here? What is the point of returning, with the security state still bad, and not being able to help people?
We are afraid of moving within the route of the Society, or any other, lest we should become well-known faces, and thus easy targets for criminals.
But what is the point of staying here? Will I send donations and help to the bereaved Iraqis, as world nations are doing to the Tsunami victims?
The catastrophe of the Iraqis cannot be solved with food, medicine, blankets, tents, or donations… the catastrophe of Iraq is much bitter, and cruel.
