Mission: Explore Mosul, Iraq (JULIE IN IRAQ)

In this episode, I explore Mosul, Iraq. The episode begins at a local library, and I pay homage to one of the first libraries in the world: the Library of Ashurbanipal, located near modern-day Mosul. I then cook beef skewers and bread with my host family. Afterward, I visit a bazaar and interview craft people, including a coppersmith and knife smith. I briefly visit Mosul’s Bytna Center for Heritage and then attend a dental conference in the city. I visit local ruins and spend time on a Ferris wheel at a local theme park. Next, I visit the ancient city of Qarakosh, a historically Christian city. I complete the video exploring the streets of Mosul with locals. I interview a local activist on how he has stayed positive throughout the difficulties that the people of Mosul have faced in recent years.

Your trip will be a story in the books in Iraq, because many tourists spread what happened with them in Iraq, and their trip became one of the stories in the books.

Julie, I would like to thank you for visiting Iraq, there are a lot of content makers who visited Iraq and made videos, but you have a special imprint, the sense of humor, the eagerness of the meeting and your beautiful spirit made everyone who watches your clips smile! Thank you for visiting Iraq. These passages will send a message to the whole world that Iraq is a country of love, giving, mercy and luck. Iraq is a place to live and not as they claim is full of terrorists and militias despite their presence, but Iraq is safe to live, I was hoping to invite you to visit Karbala and Najaf province and stay at dinner with us ❤

I haven’t been to Iraq since 2008 and it wasn’t a good time. It’s so refreshing seeing the people doing so well.

[albable]

I am a soldier in the Iraqi army, and I fought in the province of Mosul, and we gave many martyrs. Thank God, my country is safe. Today, you are welcome in my country, and thank you for supporting my country in the media.

الواجب في كل حال تجنب النظر إلى المتبرجات، وغض البصر؛ لأن الله أمر بذلك كما قال سبحانه: قُلْ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَغُضُّوا مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِمْ وَيَحْفَظُوا فُرُوجَهُمْ [النور:30]، فالمؤمن يغض بصره، ويتقي ربه ويسأل الله العافية
