Ghaith Abdul-Ahad
Abdul-Ahad’s recent series from Iraq is moving and deeply saddening. In this clip, he raises a question that I haven’t seen covered elsewhere. The real loss in Iraq, he says, will be when this generation of children grow up, since these children will have grown up with sectarian violence, killing, and massive displacement due to war and uncertainty.
The correspondence is deeply sentimental, but the perspective is one that is seldom seen.
