NPR article about women in Iraq

I thought  this article from today about the increase in the Shiite Muslim practice of Muta'a (temporary marriages/ legitimized affairs) since the time of the U.S. invasion would be interesting in light of our reading of Sisters in War.

Sisters in War book party

I just wanted to remind everybody about the book club, this Saturday, October 16, 6:00 PM at Sue's house. I'm going to pick up some Arab food at the Arab market in my neighborhood...hopefully Shannon will come help me pick out some good stuff! See you then.
