SMALL WORLDS -

When last heard from Faiza Jarrar was still in Jordan, but she has posted since then in Arabic which has not been translated into English yet. The following is from her last translated entry of Wed - Jan 5th, '05:

*Good morning...

I am still in Amman... the weather is cold and rainy...but it is beautiful.

Things in Baghdad are still unsettled, and unencouraging. I do not know whether to go back, or remain here. What is the point of returning, with the security state still bad, and not being able to help people?

We are afraid of moving within the route of the Society, or any other, lest we should become well-known faces, and thus easy targets for criminals.*

But in an atmospheric dispatch from Amman by Trudy Rubin dated Jan 12th, Rubin has tea with a woman named Faiza, who is an Iraqi engineer married to a Jordanian, who may well be Faiza the Blogtresse.

Is her son Raed still in Jordan, too?
Nope. He is currently visiting Iran with Niki.
