From the Paper:

"The Iraqi people have to worry about kidnappings and threats wherever they are. People are constantly getting kidnapped, even while at work these things are happening. Kids cannot go out and just play in the streets with a sense of freedom and a carefree spirit to them, everyone has to be aware of their surroundings. Going out at night is dangerous for most in Iraq, many have quit going out at night in at all to avoid possible threats. And then there are those who are experiencing the devastations of war first hand."
