The Iraqi collaborator and his family's exit strategy

BY KATHERINE GLOVER, MEDILL NEWS SERVICE




After three years in the United States, 25-year-old Mohammed went back to his home in Baghdad, Iraq, to live with his mother and younger brother and sister.

He thought with Saddam Hussein gone, everything would be better. He didn't realize the city had fallen into violent chaos and his U.S. ties would put his family in danger.

This is the story of Mohammed's time in Iraq and his struggle to get his family safely to Syria.

He has asked that his last name not be used for the safety of his family.
