Long Absence
I am sorry to have not posted for two months now, it has been a very crazy time for me. I lost internet connection due to funds, I was arrested for a few weeks, and then Baghdad was attacked by insurgent attacks. I am however, by the grace of God, alive, I can say that and many others cannot. It is amazing to me when I think back and see that it has been almost a year since we got our own government formed. Yet there is a lot of work yet to be done. Tehre is still corruption here, there is still violence. These things are taking their toll on us, I find it hard sometimes to remain patient, my own experiences have made it difficult. I will elaborate later, right now, I just watn to post once again in my online world where I can forget about bad things, and focus on the good, and meet friends who care about my country and me and my brothers.
Although I have to be frank and say it has been a bad last few months, I hope that this summer will be good. The Iraqi army, yes the Iraqi army, not the Ameriacn army, has begun operations to clean up Baghdad. Let us hope that they spread from tehre across Iraq.

good to have you back Husayn!! what were you arrested for? do write as much as possible- you are one of the best iraqi bloggers we have!
Very good to see you back online Husayn. I do hope things improve for you and for Baghdad over the summer.
Husayn
just got email, good to see you back, also you could email ferid he also was arrested wrongly
Husyan,
Good to see you back. I hope you tell us more about why were you arrested. Ferid was mistakely arrested a few months ago.
I hope all is going well with you and your family.
Hey, Welcome back!
I was wondering what happened to you! Good to hear that you are alive.
You were arrested? For what? Well, it doesn't matter. It is good to see your blog active again. You are one of my favorite Iraqi bloggers (right up there with Iraq the Model) and I sure missed your insight into the world!
Internet funds? how much does it cost per month?
Welcome back, Husayn.
(I missed you. Fayrouz missed you. With such sympathetic support from both sides, does that mean you can get elected?) :)
It is a relief to see you back and blogging. Many of us have been worried about what may have happened to you. I think it's good to hear from a variety of sources about Iraq. Your writing is one of the reasons too I come here, it is magnificent. Hope your life will continue to improve over the future.
Peace be upon you,
Scriptor of Historium
Husayn,
I feared that you had been killed. I am glad to know that you are alive and I hope your family is well.Your courage and optimism are amazing!
I hope the experience of being arrested didn't demoralise you, I've been praying on and off for Iraq to succeed and for them to be able to stand on their own two feet.
I hope the Iraqi army, comprising of many ethnicities, defeats the terrorists.
God Bless Iraq and its people.
I am so proud to hear the Iraqi Army is taking such big leaps. I am happy to know you are okay and I hope you have a great summer.
I'm so glad to hear from you! I was thinking just this morning that I hoped you were doing ok.
I'm not a religious person - but in my own way I'm praying for you and your family. I so wish for you and your country a safe, peaceful, prosperous life.
Hang in there buddy...it will make you stronger.
good luck and God bless!

Husayn, I wonder, you have mentioned now and in your previous post that you do not enjoy thinking of the "bad things" and that neither do most Iraqis. If you aren't thinking about the bad things how can you be fixing them?
Hoping that you are well,
Zeek
Husayn
Very glad to have you back. I read your blog to find out what's really going on in Iraq. So sorry that you were arrested, but I am glad you are ALIVE! Also good that the Iraqi army is taking over.
Glad you're ok. I pray everything goes well for you.
Great to hear from you. Stay safe.
husayn
I am glad you are back. I read many blogs from Irag. Many of who are so young but in reading your blogs I often forget. I can not imagine what it would be like living through this war. I have many question but I will keep this short for now. I hope you stay safe and many good things come your way.
I have been waiting eagerly since your last posting to see another posting. It's good to hear an inside voice apart from the mainstream media. Keep it up!
I hope the Iraqi army will get better.
Very, Very, happy to hear from you again!
I had feared the worst, and it is a relief to see you post again!
Here is wishing the best of luck to the Iraqi army in their efforts to put Iraq on the right track!
Also, best of luck and well wishes to you and yours in the days ahead!!
Glad you're back. You really had us all worried. We never know when an Iraqi blogger is absent for a long time whether it is just family and job pressures, or whether you may have been killed or wounded. Sorry you were arrested, but glad that is behind you now. If they had just read your blogs they would have known you are one of the really good guys!
Stay safe and free,
Mimi
Mimi,
"Sorry you were arrested, but glad that is behind you now. If they had just read your blogs they would have known you are one of the really good guys!"
Isn't that ironic though? That we are so ill-informed that we are capturing innocent people? Despite what people like Bill O'Reilly are saying, we are indeed capturing the wrong people quite often.
Husayn!!! Glad to see you back and safe and blogging again. I'm sorry you were arrested. I hope you weren't mistreated. Yours is one of the best Iraqi blogs and you have made many friends around the world who care about you and freedom for Iraqis. I hope the IA keeps getting stronger. the stories I hear about the IA unit called 'The Wolves' are very encouraging.
A'Asha Al-Iraq
Welcome back, great to see you again.
Thanks for sharing your experiences. Best wishes for a great summer.
Good to see you back. Stay safe.
Glad you are back and safe, Husayn.
One statement in your blog says it all. Iraqi Soldiers, not Americans, are conducting this operation. Let us hope that this is the beginning of the end of the Resistance/Insurgency, for once and for all.
"These things are taking their toll on us, I find it hard sometimes to remain patient, my own experiences have made it difficult."
I wonder, Husayn, could your excitement "about a new democratic Iraq" be flagging? If so, that would be remarkable considering you "do not want to dwell on evil."
Oh well... I'm hope time is not having any unduly adverse affect on your spirits; that would be simply tragic.
Welcome back.

take a break and find some AC.When youre ready hit the keys and give us the lowdown.
everyday youre getting closer to the terrorists going away.
Patience bro!
still blogging?
Hang tough Husayn!
Hi Husayn,
I'm A first time poster here, but have been reading your blog for awhile. I just wanted to let you know now that you and your opinions reach many people, and that we worry about you. I also wanted to say something else... That growing up in America has afforded us many things.. and a couple are the abillity to be selfish and spoiled, so when you read comments from naysayers from our country .. rememeber if it wasn't for the blood lost and spilt by in this land many years ago long before we were born it would be very possible we could be under the rule of a saddam. Throughout our history as a country we have had to defend our freedom and grow our demacracy and the entire time we have had to live with naysayers.. They we're there when our country was born and they are here today.. ..so Please,, do not give them the time of day.. they are worthless and honestly have never deserved to be free.. they we're just born lucky.
All my respect! Your voice is powerful! Please stay safe and health.

Hello husayn....It's good to read your blog. We here in the U.S. hear nothing but the bad news from our media which is biased against its own country.
I have a good friend, only 18 years old, who has enlisted in the Marine Corps to help defend you and your countrymen. I hope you appreciate the sacrifice this young man is making. He is not there to kill muslims. He is not there to fight for oil. He is not there to take your country from you.
I wish nothing but a healthy and productive life in your new Iraq.
best regards
Marc
I thought you left because you were pissed at the comments from months ago. I hope all is well and I am sorry if my country has treated you poorly. If you had any problems with detention Lt. Fishman will be able to help you. (Fishman, I assume you know more about dealing with bullshit (if there was any) than I do)
Welcome back ... I sorely missed your writings. You were an inspiration to me and provided very helpful insights into what is going on in Iraq. We americans really do support you and your country -- don't be discouraged by the left or all angry americans you hear from with more hate than brains. Dispite our own media(s) best attempts to smear the US and its president to the entire world, I belive Bush did what he thought was right for Iraq. Being the sole superpower in the world is a thankless position to be in. We want your own Iraqi forces to stand on their own and hopefully that is beginning to happen. Stand strong, even our own US independence took time and much blood was shed. Freedom isn't free,

One of the better results I saw from my fasting experience was that I have more self control over my eating habits. I have always been a binge type of eater. After my fast, I felt like I could restrain myself easier. It is proberbly a mental attribute. I mean I can go without eating for 7 days then I sure can keep myself from eating something I shouldn't.

Inspiration can be a powerful thing, it can keep you going when all around you cries out "quit" It is even more powerful than motivation, as motivation gives you the basic reasons to keep going, it tells you why you want to do what you do, because motivation is based on goals.
