I'm trying to imagine the worst-case scenario for following your advice in this situation, and I'm thinking it probably can't end up with suicide bombers.

I hope.

Because I suspect this is what I will end up doing, more or less; I don't want to put all the doubtful recs into this format, not when it takes so much time to write up each summary, and when I'm so far behind in terms of stories recommended:stories to be recommended. So I'll probably have to find some way to differentiate, to rec the flawed ones, if I do at all, in another location or format or both.

(And I have to ask, but you don't, of course, have to answer: how did she end up in Iraq? What was your advice that got her there?)
