Faiza of “A Family in Baghdad” has a long, English-language version up today of posts she wrote in Arabic on October 13 and 15.
This is heartwrenching writing. I can’t even begin to make excerpts from it. She and her family are going to move house… Read about it. The whole post is worth reading.
At the end, she says:
- Iraq needs an election, and anew government

More on sending $$$ to canada.
The following was posted to a group that I belong to and may be useful to those of us living in the us of a who don’t want the potential hassles of there being records of where we send our $$$.
New Canadian Postal Regulations.
The following is taken from the USPS website.
I have no idea whether it’s correct or an invention of the USPS for their purposes.
WASHINGTON, DC — The U.S. Postal Service is alerting customers mailing items to Canada they must comply with strict Canadian Customs and
postal administration addressing requirements.
All postal items (except postcards) that do not display the complete name and address of both the sender and the recipient — in roman letters (A, B, C) and Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3) — are being denied entry into Canada. Sender or recipient identification such as “Grandma” or “Aunt Ruth” are not acceptable and are among the causes
of mail being returned.
According to Canadian officials, this action is pursuant to the Canada Customs Act and reflects heightened security measures.
Accordingly, addresses to recipients in Canada should be printed in ink or typewritten in capital letters, and the last line of the address
must show only the country name, written in full, and in capital letters.
When a Canadian postal delivery zone number is included in the address, mailing requirements allow that number to appear as the
last line of the address.
Customers also are reminded that complete and legible customs declarations — along with required import documentation — must be
provided to specifically identify the contents of any package.
General descriptions such as “gift” or “present” are not acceptable.
Canadian Customs offices report a backlog of incoming postal items containing incomplete or inaccurate information.
According to Canadian officials, these items eventually will be returned to their points
of origin for correction by the sender as soon as practical.
