Acknowledgements

I would like to thank Dr Marion Hersh, Mr Ian Hunter, Mrs Helen Allan* and the Committee for the Release of Hostages and Detainees in Iraq for their helpful comments and suggestions. I would also like to thank all the ex-hostages and hostages' relatives who provided information and documentation.

I would like to thank Mr Fawzi Qattan for setting up this web site and adding all the link documents and archival publications.
The Committee would also like to take this opportunity to thank all those who have actively supported the campaign during the past twenty-two years.

This web site report was researched, compiled and updated from the previous hostages reports of August 1988 and March 1995 published and presented by Dr. Kamal Aziz Ketuly (on March 2003) to document and highlight the issues of our family's deportations and our hostages in Iraq.
