[A-List] Speaking of blogs, the latest Iraqi DP is....

Riverbend:

On a personal note, we've finally decided to leave. I guess I've known
we would be leaving for a while now. We discussed it as a family
dozens of times. At first, someone would suggest it tentatively
because, it was just a preposterous idea- leaving ones home and
extended family- leaving ones country- and to what? To where?

Since last summer, we had been discussing it more and more. It was
only a matter of time before what began as a suggestion- a last case
scenario- soon took on solidity and developed into a plan. For the
last couple of months, it has only been a matter of logistics. Plane
or car? Jordan or Syria? Will we all leave together as a family? Or
will it be only my brother and I at first?

After Jordan or Syria- where then? Obviously, either of those
countries is going to be a transit to something else.
