You will be there in the safe zones for 3 months and will earn close to $90,000 tax free, then you will be home safely with your family.
What do you think about Iraqi poeple ? They wil earn on average about $90 in those 3 months, and after 3 months they will stay there and facing tetorrists every day for the rest of their life.
We (most of us) are very selfish most of the times.

that was lame of you. what does this have to do with the iraqi people? how about yourself? you drive a 30K car when most people in the other parts of the world can't afford basic food and shelter. YOU are sooooo selfish!

is it our fault we have what we have? no! but it is what we do with it that makes us who we are.

that that 90K and go buy a house...

take that 90K and buy drugs..

I have been here in Iraq (12 miles north of Baghdad) since 7/05. It's definitely noticably cooler now. High's now are normally under 110's. They were usually 120's in July and August. I was in Kuwait in early July and the high's there were in the 130's. That was HOT!

It's 'relatively' safe if your work does not involve frequent trips outside the base.

Good luck!!!
