One thing I realized, don’t judge a entire country through the news media.
Vere good 😘😘
so true
dude , he is only focusing on the positive things plus the good areas u can come and judge by yourself so most of news are not fake as it used to be :)

I'm old enough to remember when there was no internet and the only thing we knew was whatever the mainstream media told us. Social media can shatter our misconceptions really fast.

Recently I've seen many vlogs of people travelling to Iraq and I've got to say, Iraqi people seem one of the most kind, humble and friendly I've ever seen. Makes me want to visit there whenever I get a chance. Many things also remind me of me of me own country. Much love from Brazil! 🇧🇷❤️🇮🇶

wow! I'm Mexican American and I am so glad someone finally presented the positive or daily life of Irak. Western media always focus their attention on the bad side of every country: poverty, terrorism, etc. But all countries have good and bad stuff. So I'm glad someone finally talked about the good stuff about Iraq.

Who owns the news?
@@lordmasterization your colita
Oh, have you been to Irak?
@@lordmasterization He really wants us to say the Jews but we know that's not true, there are "white" Jews in high places in America some do own media outlets like news stations but ultimately it's the content the news channels wish to provide based on propaganda. If America is invading a country, they will throw all the news on that country to make them sound like demons so it sits easier in the hearts of Americans whilst they sit and watch the news with their TV dinners, not realizing your overpowered machinery is murdering the lives of other families. Terrorism is a HUGE problem in the Middle East no doubt, but look at the damage the terrorists have done to the LOCAL people, never mind America or the rest of the world. Why do Iraqi's need a foreign invasion and more harassment? We all want terrorism to be removed from all forms of society we can all universally agree to that. So lets work together people.
As Saudi i always admire how Iraqis love their country and always try to improve it in all aspect, beautiful and peaceful country and highly educated people. All the love.

This really showed a side to Iraq that the media never shows. As someone of Afghan descent I am happy to see this perspective and progress of a country that has suffered so much just like my ancestral homeland. Just goes to show you cant generalize a country nor its ppl. Positive vibes from this video.
the media makes it out like they hate us but like they said they hate the government not the people
I agree with you here Squall. It's a very big change for everyone who've survived the we wars, too. I like her open-mindedneas. God bless Beauty to you and the rest of Iraq, that stands for good. ✌🏼👍🏿🙏🏼
@@65stang98 The world including Europe despises the US 🇺🇸 government for being the bully, invading in the name of democracy and exploiting the resources for their gain. Wake up citizens of the US and take into account how your governments actions reflect your nation and people in the eyes of the world. I have over 200 American friends and almost all of them agree with me, they have a heavier criticism towards their leaders than I do. Take care and think 🤔 of the world outside the US.
@@bugder bruh most people in the us hate the government. its what we are raised on. we love our country hate the government.
@@65stang98 By all means love and stand by your country and flag. Your outlook is much healthier and rational than the masses who are manipulated by the mainstream media. I wish your outlook and frame of mind were infectious and would spread to the masses. Take care bruh.
I did not expect to see Iraq like this. Wow, you go Iraq! ☺️👍
They are living there life whilst holding onto morality 🎉🎉🎉
What a beautiful girl! I'm so glad that she survived all the bombings and seems to be without trauma. I'm sure everyone has suffered in some way but it seems they can still have a good time.
I have lived in Chicago my entire life. We have many Iraqi immigrants living in Chicago. I have represented 100’s of them as an attorney. Mostly Iraqi Assyrians. They are wonderful, family-centered people and very good looking.
Brother. I would like to invite you to come to Iraq and Visit the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussain and Imam Ali in Karbala and Najaf. There is no visa requirements for Americans. Yes Many people oppose America it's true but they only judge them from their policies toward their countries they don't really hate people who want to learn about them and are kind towards them. I would like to invite you to visit Iraq and get to know the people of Iraq. I hope you visit Iraq during Arbaeen Pilgrimage and see the hospitality of Iraqis towards everyone. I'm sure you won't regret and you would also get to know more about Real People on Ground and The Truth of Islam during your journey and learn more about Prophet Mohammad and his Successor Hazrat Ali. No matter who you are everyone is welcome to visit the Holy Shrines of Imams of Islam and learn about History and culture of the Local People.
@@bigDaddy-lx9sn thank you for the invitation. But first, I must visit my friend in Saudi Arabia. He is a Saudi citizen who, along with his brother, came to America to go to college. We became very good friends and as soon as Covid is over I will go there and visit.
What crimes did they commit?
@@josecarranza7555 he's likely an immigration attorney, representing them in citizenship matters. dont assume the worst immediately
@@youshallnotpass7921 I didn’t assume anything. Plus you don’t know. The question was for them, not you.
As an American I am glad to see that good things are happening in Iraq and wish nothing but peace and prosperity for its people. The people there have been through so much. The home of ancient Sumerians and cradle of civilization. They’ve had to deal with the Assyrians, the Persians, the Greeks, the Romans, Saddam, and George W Bush(I never voted for him). They deserve to have peace and prosperity.

I was stationed there in 2008 in the US Army. Military police company. We weren't the guys kicking in doors and stuff. We patrolled the streets and trained the Iraqi police. It looks SO different now compared to then. I'm so happy that it is returning to prosperity!

Mda, a filmat și amerlocul ăsta amețit, într-o zonă mai selectă a Bagdadului, predominată de non-musulmani și turiști, ca să pară că e totul "foarte normal și sigur", pe acolo, când de fapt realitatea e cu totul alta! Și evident, mai primește și o grămadă de bani pt filmările astea de doi lei! Știi, nu?! Mergi tu singură prin Iraq, ca româncă, și neacoperită și îmbrăcată în stil european, dar nu pe unde a filmat ăsta, ci prin restul mahalalei ăleia de țară, plină de adepți ai ISIS și ai să vezi, ce te așteaptă! Viața aia normală pt ăștia, este doar cu kalashnikovul în mână și bombele!
@@aram221 since when do you arab muslims, love the European and Orthodox-Christian Romanian nation?!🇷🇴☦ All you arabs love, are foreign European women!
Well done Doug . I left Baghdad back in 1979 ,probably before you were born and I have not been back since! What I see here is a very different story to what we normally see and hear from the media. Safa I noticed that you were a bit self conscious. No need to be, you are well spoken, good looking and really raised my hopes for a better future for Iraqi women. Good on you. Thanks Doug, good job.
I really noticed that she was shy in some way, but I think because his American accent and speaking fast made her confused and she couldn't explain more about some questions! Especially when he asked her about (air condition) and he tried to be funny with her, but she skipped the answer or she didn't react with him He was embarrassing. 😅😅
obviously before he was born numb nuts hes like mid 20's
As a man whose married to a Turkish woman, whose first language is not English, I can say that it's not her. He's a nice guy, but his conversation skills are lacking some depth of character.
it is not about language at all. Women have their own way of behaving or reacting especially with a stranger man. Her reaction is very common for girls among male friends especially in Asian countries

Thank you, American, for the beauty you offer about our country, but I advise you not to portray the Iraqi people as an open country. We are Muslims governed by the Qur’an and the Sunnah of our Prophet. We did not rule with secularism. The mistake of our women is modest

@@user-qn1ke1pg1q I am not American, also please don't speak on behalf of all Iraqi muslims. Iraqi muslims who raised their daughters and sons well and trust them know what it is like to communicate and meet with other people with respect. God didn't create us on earth to separate women from men! We can talk and meet each other while maintaining healthy respectful relationships. Relationships between women and men are not just love or even just friendship, you can be work colleagues or school mates or acquaintances who meet for hobbies ..etc. Nothing in what they did displeases God so don't take this situation and fit it into your own narrative.

العراقيات الأجمل فكون لديهم شخصيه قويه ومضهر جميل كل فتاه عراقيه هنا احبكم😊
When I was there 20 years ago, it looked very different and I wouldn’t have ever imagined it to be a place that anyone would ever visit. This is really cool to see the change.
It would’ve looked better had Iraqis not developed an aggressive relationship with the US and instead became allies!
When I worked in Iraq(Balad) I went with a negative perception of the Iraqi people because of how Iraq is portrayed in our American media. Some of the nicest people I met. Would love to visit again someday.
Don't believe everything they say in movies, series, media and journalism, they want to distort us and distort Islam, and we are still
@@_7USO I know I have been there
Beautiful people
Welcome
I would like to invite you everyone including you to come to Iraq and Visit the Holy Shrine of Imam Hussain and Imam Ali in Karbala and Najaf. There is no visa requirements for Americans. Yes Many people oppose America it's true but they only judge them from their policies toward their countries they don't really hate people who want to learn about them and are kind towards them. I would like to invite you to visit Iraq and get to know the people of Iraq. I hope you visit Iraq during Arbaeen Pilgrimage and see the hospitality of Iraqis towards everyone. I'm sure you won't regret and you would also get to know more about Real People on Ground and The Truth of Islam during your journey and learn more about Prophet Mohammad and his Successor Hazrat Ali. No matter who you are everyone is welcome to visit the Holy Shrines of Imams of Islam and learn about History and culture of the Local People.
Man I envy people like this guy, traveling to places people have a negative view on and being open minded and walking around without the fear the media puts in front of our faces
You were never in the military and had to go there, I did. This dude fell for the pretty Iraq girl. Iraq hates American people trust me I know don't let the pretty face fool you.

I love your videos. This Iraqi girl is adorable you can tell she was nervous at first about her English and being filmed but once she got a little more comfortable and talkative she became even more appealing. She is really cute and I think she would be a great bridge to help US civilians bridge the gap from East to west. Embrace this relationship with her. you are a great host..very real and humble! A rare thing these days. Coach and bring out her personality.. Then you guys create a channel and go live. Im there! On the flip side- You could bring her to the states and do what you did there but in America showing her places like Vegas-Miami-San Fransisco...
thank you so much!!! yes safa is the best 😊 appreciate the support!!

Iraq 🇮🇶 people are so friendly am living in Bagdad and I can tell you 💯 they are so beautiful and good to visitors
I'm from the United States. I met an Iraqi family traveling here and they were the most humble and respectful people I've metfrom abroad. Their daughter was beautiful and their son was highly educated. The younger child was infatuated with my truck (i drive a tractor trailer combination vehicle) and he loved the horn and the bunk bed 😄. All in all, a positive experience and friendly people. I was invited to visit Baghdad as well. Hope to visit some day and see more awesome people.
❤❤هلا بيك
The most genuine, warm and welcoming people. I was there in the late seventies
Safa presented the Iraqi girls beautifully , her brother is very polite too ,nice people ..Greetings from Egypt ♥🙏🇪🇬🇮🇶

Totally agree with you,,god bless them both , i love Iraq and Iraqi people, i wish to visit Iraq some day.

This is amazing. I was all throughout Baghdad 18 years ago in some intense combat situations and in a constant state of alert. It's great to see this city prosper and becoming a safer, livable environment. The Iraqi people have been through a lot on the past several decades. Salute!
So how many Iraqis did you kil?

I really want to go but , but I need to someone help me there like come withe me and show me everywhere. I want to go for holidays. But someone like Thai guys come with me to help and to show everywhere.
They have been through a lot indeed. And your then President had a fair share in making their lives more miserable
صفاء الاخلاق و النزاكه والترتيب .. الرب يحميكي ... Douglas thanks a lot for all the good vibes wish you safe and happiness in whole Iraq
the way you made this video shows that you are really a smart person. Good luck!
I've known a lot of Iraqis. Very nice people. And their food is incredible. Good video.
I've spoken to many Iraqis, and call several of them my friends. They're kind, funny, strong people who will fight every day to better their country. A nation that truly deserves the economic and societal freedoms they've fought for and helped to establish alongside the international community. May your nation forever continue to grow, develop and prosper.
Wow wow ! Thank you, kind sir/ma'am. Such kind words. I hope you find a time to visit Iraq ❤️
Only the regime and its corruption what made things limping.. We would be far better
Thank you great comment

After everything it’s been through Iraq is still amazing and if it wasn’t for corruption of the government this country would have been one of the wealthiest in the world, and thanks Doug for your nice representation of my homeland🇮🇶♥️
it’s absolutely incredible!
If it wasn't for America, those scum ruling us would have never set foot in Iraq. Worse than Saddam a thousand times.
@@ali95ah so true, but at the same time it was the American government NOT the people for sure
@@serenityj3222 Soldiers who slaughtered our people are part of the American people, same goes for those who voted for Bush and most of the adult Americans who wanted war with us in 2003. They killed millions and made our country 100 times worse. It is thanks to them Saddam became a saint in the eyes of many Iraqis, because they introduced us to these scum who now rule from Baghdad. All this is thanks to the American people, those who signed up for the armed forces, those who cheered, those who sent their sons to war, those who benefitted from our suffering and you still want to make excuses for them? Sure there are Americans who were against the war, but at the time most weren't. Our biggest mistake as a people is that we quickly forgive those undeserving of our forgiveness. America should never be forgiven for what it has done. Remember that

Welcome to our country, the Iraqi people do not hate people or peoples of Western countries, but rather hate the politics and rulers of their countries who destroyed and ruined Iraq in the past years. Greetings to you and your beautiful content...🇮🇶🇺🇸

@@Lost7one we have two choices of who we can vote for in every political election. If you think we have control over what our leaders do, you’re sadly mistaken.

Yeah, totally. Daniel I will let you in on a little open secret. Politicians really don’t decide foreign policy. Non elected ‘experts’ and ‘advisors’ do.
Iraq has come so far. Power to the people 👊
Safa is beautiful and outgoing. Just the kind of person you'd really want to hang out with. Wish her luck.

The kinda that's a good easy bang 😅
MashaAllah good to see the people of Iraq enjoying peace after years of difficulties. As Somali i understand their pain from war and terrorism as we are also recovering.
She looks really Beautiful, And she showed the different side of iraq
People don't realize this but iraq is actually the king of modern civilization and its historical roots actually began with European settlers. Iraq wasn't always an Arab country hence why it use to be called Babylon and Mesopotamia before iraq became an independent country.
Why do you think "people don't realize this" and that you are smarter than everyone?
I hope that all countries do not judge Iraq before you visit it, because Iraq has gone through a period of wars, but now Iraq is better, and I wish everyone to visit Iraq because it is a very beautiful country ❤
