2 Hey guys, that post that I did about the organization that assists Iraqis to get to the states has some actual Iraqis that have come over due to said program commenting on it. Can you link it again to help out with the exposure? I would REALLY appreciate it if you would do so, and it is to help out an amazing group of people.
