This is a snippet of what "The Vice Staff" said about their look into this dark world:
While I was in Damascus last summer, my friends from the Serbian Embassy took me to a brothel. It looked like a regular nightclub. It was well lit, music blared, and people hung out. I would not have thought: This is a place to buy sex. I got to talking with a group of Iraqi girls. I told them I was a “colleague from East Germany” on vacation. They were slathered with makeup and topped by massive, overstyled hair. They explained their situation to me: They fuck for 20 or 30 dollars. They are forbidden from leaving their shady hotels during the day—they aren’t allowed out until they are picked up for work at 8 PM.

Political environment affects everyday life and lifestyles. All I'm saying is that people are running out of Iraq and not doing anything better with themselves. It's no better than when Saddam was there.
