He has been busy organizing and protesting against corruption and injustice in Tahrir Square in Baghdad. On August 11, as he was resting from protesting at his house, I tweeted to him that if we could talk just for a few minutes; he agreed., We Zoomed for almost an hour, he was thoughtful, personal and in a very good mood.  I started the conversation by asking him… about

Many media coverage a hero in the Arab world, celebrity status, shoe manufacturer claimed his shoe was made there, a shoe statue in Tikrit, marriages proposals, book , films, offers, TV series..  .
