Saved by Her Enemy: Amazon Vine Review

My review through the Amazon Vine Program of the Book Saved by Her Enemy An Iraqi woman’s journey from the heart of war to the heartland of America by Rafraf Barack and Don Teague is available at Amazon.com here.

The title is more accurate than you might know.

I’m only just over a third of the way through Saved by Her Enemy by Don Teague & Rafraf Barrak so normally I wouldn’t comment on the book yet, but I read something that should be read by every person who lionized the enemy:

Just before we crossed the border, the soldier driving a Humvee we were following stopped to warn us, “Watch out for children lying in the road.”

“Children?” I asked. “Why Children?”

“Because they know you won’t run them over. They line up little kids, five or six years old, across the road and force you to stop. When you do, people swarm the vehicle. They smash the windows with rocks, drag people out. You don’t want that to happen.”

“So what are we supposed to do?” I asked.

“You don’t stop. No matter what.”…

Interestingly enough they only used this tactic against civilians because they assumed that military vehicles wouldn’t bother stopping.

These are the people we are fighting and still fighting. This is the same attitude that Israel faces every day. If you don’t understand this, you either haven’t been paying attention or don’t want to pay attention.

If you read Pam Geller of course you won’t have this problem.

My review of the Case Logic 17″ Laptop Messenger Bag. Is available at Amazon.com here.

I don’t include a photo because it is a bag and the appearance is not much different than any other but the design is different than any other I’ve done.
