Today we went on anothe assessment mission to two very remote villages. The first one had absolutely NO infrastructure what so ever. No running water, no electricity, no sewage, nothing. I am not sure what we can do for these folks really. The US is no longer paying for projects as the Iraqi governement has started to support it's own country. I do suspect though that it has been this way for these folks for a very long time.
Another village we went to today had an infrastructure, incuding a school. But the sad part is they have no teachers to work in the school, so the kids have to do without. Sad really. I feel that no matter who you are or where you are, you really do need some kind of an education.
The areas we went to today were several miles away from any city. They are all farmers really. Lots of farm land in the area. I even saw some greenery today.
