Shiites And Kurds In One Region!

"Couple of weeks ago I was waiting for the metro to come when a man came and started a conversation. I immediately told him that I am from Iraq to spice things up! He was very interested. It wasn’t a long time before our conversation turned to politics.

We started to discuss the current issues concerning Iraq and the US. He asked about how things are in Iraq now [the usual question that follows the “huh, you are from Iraq!”]

“Is it as bad as we see it on TV and read about it in the newspapers?” he asked."
