I really look forward to speaking with you when I am home and this nightmare is over with”. Brian was taken to Baghdad’s airport but his flight was cancelled due to ‘weather conditions’. As he cleared today for his impending flight, he was taken by authorities for “questioning” for approximately an hour. “You can imagine what he must have gone through at that moment” Stirling commented.
