A mother of three children lives illegally in the Green Zone. She has worked with different security companies, doing laundry and patting down women at checkpoints inside the Green Zone to support her kids. Like many Iraqis who
work for foreign companies in the Green Zone, she has received threats against her life. Now she lives in what is left of a bombed out market for SaddamÕs Republican Guard, sleeping on the floor with her kids 10 yards from their makeshift toilet. SheÕs also taken in another single woman who is also stranded in the Green Zone after working at a Base Exchange store and receiving threats. U.S. military police have recently threated to kick them out.
