Amir George's family is from the Assyrian Tiari Tribe from the village of Mahoudi in northern Iraq. He is the author of "Liberating Iraq: The Story of the Assyrian Christians," which is being provided to each of the 4,888 families that lost a loved one in Iraq and the 32,000 injured, along with a letter from the Iraqi president to say a much belated "thank you" for their sacrifice.
