sorry ive been so scarce since summer began, let me fill you in.
i entered this photojournalist contest and won so they flew me over to a less hot zone of iraq to get some pictures of 'our boys at rest' but there was no solidity in that so i took a leave of absence and headed towards Falluja, one of the hottest spots currently in iraq to get some combat pictures, but the media advisor wouldnt let me out with my camera and informed me that my mere prescence in that particular military zone was illegal and i was to leave or be reprimanded and flown back to the states, which i was not ready for. so i met hummada, a local and started talking to him as much as i could, being as my hebrew is limited and his english is limited, but i eventually and painstakingly learned about a local hub for anti-occupation activity, i.e. 'terrorists'
he took me there and explained that i had no intent on betraying their location and i eventually fell in with them and their operations.
then last week they actually assigned me to a mission, they flew me over to cuba and that is all that i'm entitled to say without jeapordizing their operations.
the point is is that im alive and you can stop worrying about me. though i would love to hear from you all.
