Again, anecdotal. Not all the Middle East is the same. That is the point I was making. Is Iraq your example? Some other country? He moved in and out of combat zones, but most of the article he shows the good side of civilian Ukrainians not in active combat zones enjoying life and not threatening them. Do we think all of Syria, for example, during different parts of the conflict was a giant war zone? This is HN. When people talk vaguely about technical problems like this without data or pose with anecdata, there is usually a higher bar of proof. Saying "Ukraine is full of white people who look like me, so less risky" and "Syria is dangerous" are not apples to apples comparisons in my book. https://idlewords.com/2014/07/sana_a.htm https://idlewords.com/2014/07/sana_a.htm
