Does anyone know what happened to Riverbend? |
|
She hasn't written in her blog since June 15. I am frightened for her with all this talk about Baghdad death squads.
Does anyone know how to get in touch with her? I wrote to her, but haven't gotten an answer.... that was last week.

2. I am always in fear that each of Riverbend's posts will be her last. |
|
Let's just keep an optomistic thought that she's been have electricity problems.

3. June 15th? that's pretty serious. I remember that "Rivebend" disappeared |
|
for awhile after Iraq Invasion and folks were posting "Alerts." Riverbend then "resurfaced."
I've not kept up with her because I can't stand the death and destruction and all of it on a personal basis from Iraq. I didn't want us to Invade and Protested...I can't handle the gore.
But...it's serious if she's been missing since June 15th. Why did no one alert before this? Was it becaus "Riverbend" was so sporadic?

8. July 15th, Not June 15th |
|
And she has mentioned before that the electricity is sporadic, it's hot and there is so much do do when the power is on. So that may have something to do with it She sounds so depressed these days

9. RIght... July 15th sorry for mistake... but still! |
|
Nothing since then.... She was reporting sporadic electricity, dust storms, and lack of water.... then this:
"Prayers for Khalid... Raed of Raed in the Middle has some very bad news. His brother Khalid of the blog Tell Me a Secret has been abducted by the new Iraqi mukhabarat.
We're all praying he'll be alright and that Allah/God gives his family the strength to make it through this.
Nid3eelek bil salameh wil rijoo3 ila il a7ibeh wil ahal wil 7'irooj min hathihi il mi7neh bi 7'air ya Khalid..."
Now nothing.
She has disappeared before... maybe she was warned by somebody not to write? It was through her that I began to understand what living through the severity of this war was like. If she's disappeared, what could we do to find her?
