I cannot even come close to understanding or knowing what it is that you guys go through every day. The only thing that I do know is that sadness, madness, destruction, fear, and pain have counterweights and you are a vivid example of what courage can accomplish. I send you my warmest regards and big bear hug from the city of Mexicali, Mexico on the US/Mexico border. Paz hermanos!

I think we should make a distinction between the American people and the American administration. We cannot hold all American people responsible for the idiotic acts of their politicians. Besides, people have their own individual opinions; as you know, not all Americans were pro-war and not all of them were against it, and it’s the same here in Iraq.

I am American and have been anti-war since Day 1. I am so glad that you guys made that comment about distinguishing between our people and our administration, because our administration is why so many countries hate all Americans. This is a really big insight into what the war in Iraq is really doing, and I wish that George Bush would take the time of day to see this side of things. When I saw the first clip, I started wishing that I could email it to him a billion times. This is really touching, and I wish you all the best of luck, and hope that our troops pull out soon.

Hey, you're friendly regular guys. I wish I could drop by and have a nice chat with all of you. Please be patient with us. The process is slow, but we're trying to deal with the president as he turns the USA into a dictatorship. If it was up to me, I would send Bush and Company to the Hague to be tried for war crimes... and that may happen. Greetings from Hollywood California. Hope you can visit us here one day!

(An oasis in so many ways.) I'm happy you guys have found a place to relax a little. I featured your videos and site on my blog about a week ago and everyone was really moved. Keep doing what you are doing. Word is spreading. Stay safe. That pool and home are beautiful - and probably even more so for you. (An oasis in so many ways.)

Your mom seems like such a nice lady! Here in the USA all they tell us on the news is about how many people died today, and whether it was the sunni's or the shites that did it. Being part of this documentary helps us Americans realize that although you live on the other side of the earth, you enjoy the same things in life, and you go through the same struggles. We are all human after all. Ausama, thanks for being part of this documentary. Your mom seems like such a nice lady!

For all of the mistakes made by all of the people who were and are now involved in this war, the fact that the cold hard grip of a brutal inhuman despot has been broken and your great people can have a new and bright begining. Like I said " I would do it again" with pleasure. Each time I come to your country I feel the grand history and the rich vibrant sociaty that seems to be waiting just under the surface, straining to break free like I thought it would in the begining after the first war was ended. Now I see good men serving their country and trying very hard to rid you of the murderers still present. I just feel that these people are stiefuling that which Allexander the Great felt so much for that it caused him to stay there out of all the other lands he had freed/conquered even over his home land. So many other Americans have felt this also I am sure, thats one of the reasons we keep coming back in stead of retirement, we see that greatness in the people who are just the average joe and joeset. Like we are doing and are doing for our American brothers and sisters "although some would probably not think so" we fight for those average joes and joesets so they will have that chance to just live without having to carry a rifle and the chance to let that which is just under the surface.

When tears well into my eyes, and my heart is close to breakpoint. And all words I can think of are: IT IS NOT FAIR! How did America dare, to so called free us from Saddam. To bring us DEMOCRACY, that the Americans themselves do not know anything about. How did they dare to destroy our lifes, our country and loot and destroy our inheritance of one of the oldest civilisations , Sumeria all for oil, all for oil, all for oil What can I say?
