December 24th, 2009 documentary – Guests in the Waiting Room: Iraqi refugees in Jordan
Iraqis make up the world’s largest population of refugees. The 2003 US-led invasion of Iraq released a wave of violence and economic instability and brought with it the destruction of key infrastructure and the near-collapse of basic services. More than 2.7 million Iraqis have been displaced within their borders and another two million have fled their country, largely to Syria and Jordan. Today we bring you a special FSRN documentary called, “Guests in the Waiting Room: Iraqi refugees in Jordan,” produced by Hanan Tabbara and Salam Talib.
