Matt - Only at that moment… and for the first time in my life, I felt that…

My merriness started after I knew the coalition coming to liberate Iraq after half a century with Saddam left me as a semi-human triturated by sadness and swallowed by poorness.

My first decision was to obey my patriotic duty and honor principles towards my country. So I didn't hesitate to accept the first mission with coalition as an interpreter,then translator and supervisor

Militias start spry supported by internal and external hidden hands; my workfellows in their previous stories summarized the circumstances sufficiently, the militias described us traitors, I never give up or withdraw, they threw threaten letters in my way, my car and my house; they murdered my partner and my brother in law. I still zealous and wasn't stay at the same place for two nights and always shout at them ((Damn on you losers... I'm serving my country)).

Once I realized that they are coming close to me. I bought an expensive visa with limited period to a safe country, absconded there, hurry to the US embassy with all confidence and met a citizen lady at the reception.

Lady: Can I help you sir?
Matt: Yes, I'm here to apply on a program for the Iraqis translators who had work with US forces to get immigration to the US.
Lady: (Smiled to me slightingly and a little sarcasm) Do you have any thing approve …..

Matt: Of course (Maim) I have many, here you are; certificate, payment form, authorization doc., payment form again, recomm….
Lady: OK ENOUGH!! .. (Smile again) that's enough, sir, please have a seat.
