Dear friends,
Several months after Bush called the war to an official end (although
killing on both sides continues), we have little to no information about
the current situation Iraqi's face. Below is a rare opportunity to hear
from American Iraqis after their trip abroad. I know Muhammad and Roaa
and they are both compelling speakers. I hope you can attend. - Danielle
