I am a woman and fell in love with an Iraqi man. I agree to a few bellow replies. I had a mission and had no intentions, no desire, no interests other than my mission. What I learned and what I thought I knew are complete halluncinations of each other. With a fixed strongarm to my country and what was happening to me, I did not let my guard down but opened my mind to education from fact, fiction, and misconseptions. I am not with him but he knows I will love him forever and he knows how much we have changed each others lives.

On July 25, Maj. James Michael Ahearn was buried in Arlington cemetery. More than 300 people came to mourn him. Lena, the war bride widowed by a war without end, saw to it that in the tradition of Islam Jimmy was cleansed and buried with a Qur'an at his side. Last month she packed up the home they had made together near Fort Bragg, N.C., and moved to Texas to be closer to her sister Mariam. As Lena put pictures of Jimmy into boxes, her toddling daughter called out "Baba," Arabic for Daddy, whenever she saw his face.
