An Iraqi Kurd Native Shares a Fresh Perspective
on his Country's Past, Present
Mr. Muhammad Survives Iraq: Long Road to Freedom, by
Taha Muhammad, reveals the truths of the Iraqi
nation like no other book.
Lakeville, Minnesota (PRWEB) July 30, 2006 --
Taha Muhammad's remarkable new book, Mr. Muhammad
Survives Iraq: Long Road to Freedom, offers
unprecedented insight into the heart of this pivotal
Middle Eastern country and the brutal dictatorship
that has ruled it with an iron fist.
Growing up in Iraq, Taha Muhammad worked diligently
to become an honor student and ultimately a high
school math teacher, in hopes of devoting his life
to the children of his beloved country.
Unfortunately, Taha Muhammad was not afforded such a
pleasant, easy life. The harsh rule of Saddam
Hussein and the ill-treatment of Kurds such as
Muhammad eventually became so unbearable that he and
his family risked everything and fled the country.
Escaping to refugee camps in Turkey, the family
found no respite, but rather endless discrimination,
personal torture, and an ever-present threat of
death. |

After withstanding much suffering, Muhammad and his
family finally came upon a U.S. military base in
Iraq and were able to find asylum as refugees in the
United States. Once in the United States, Muhammad’s
suffering did not disappear completely; at times, he
continued to face racial discrimination and further
hardship. However, in America he did begin to feel
the inner peace he had long forgotten in his
homeland, and when asked to help the U.S. military
rebuild the war-torn Iraq, Muhammad found he could
not turn his back on his motherland and willingly
volunteered his services to help.
This unique story reveals not only the recent
history of Iraq through the eyes of an intelligent
and observant native, but also the experiences of an
individual trying to rebuild his life in a new
country that played a part in devastating his old
one. Providing a fresh perspective on the current
political and cultural unrest in the Middle East,
the book also speaks to the future of the region and
all other countries with an interest there, as
affected by the turmoil of today.
