From Iraqi family to the American family: Our great love and respect to Mr. Randy and especially Mrs. Randy, ³the courageous.² We are all wish to be so, so proud of your father and all the Americans here or there in Iraq; ³those great men² who did their efforts in reconstruction of Iraq and before that in the operation of the liberation of Iraq and we'll never forget what have you done for us forever. God bless you. God bless America. God bless our beloved Mr. President Bush. Your faithful friends, Firas, Rana, Ban and Rasha |

According to reports, one on the fastest ways to get an Iraqi killed before liberation was to have been accused of telling a joke about Saddam even in private company. So the following images give you an idea just how much things have changed in Iraq. These pictures were sent to me in an email from an Arab I worked with when I was in Iraq earlier this year. The email is titled "Top Models." While we take such humor for granted, these images show that Iraqis once freed from 34 years of Baathist Party oppression can finally show a sense of humor. |
