@johnson32667 I respect your advice for Zahraa and it must have been a bitter and difficult decision for her to take. You should acknowledge her unadulterated patriotism for her home country. If she didn't do so then how could she be able to present the problems her home country has been facing for years?

Zahraa, u think great. I think this is the best step you've taken so far for you country. I think not only Iraq but Pakistan,Afghanistan,Iran and every Islamic country in this world needs patriotic people who think like you. I know that leaving a luxurious,beautiful and peaceful country like Canada is a big decision,however,it will inspire lots of people who will watch your video. May ALLAH bless you and help you accomplish your goals.

Since the release of this clip, Zahraa has successfully begun her journey in bridging the two worlds and consistently writes stories which are insightful, and entertaining. putting into practice the skills which she has learned. Journalism, as in many professions, may sometimes be self-serving, but she continues to search for thought provoking stories conveying the cultural dynamics of the Middle East. I hope you achieve your dreams
