Basra, Iraq ➖ It's always interesting to me that whenever I visit a "dangerous" country, I never actually feel in danger! For decades the news has published lies and exaggerated stories, that only show the negatives of countries and have led to prejudice around the world. My mission of late is to visit countries that have faced this issue to go and show the TRUTH. 99.9% of the time, it's the complete opposite of what the media shares and ironically, I feel a lot safer in these countries than where these media outlets operate from. I hope you enjoy watching what the reality is in Iraq.

Just wonderful to see the Iraqi people & the children. All so incredibly generous, humble & intelligent. For years I’ve told people in the US my Middle Eastern friends are the most amazing people, & nothing like what we are sadly led to believe. Luke & Mac are doing a great service to share their experiences. The children are all so outgoing, inquisitive & beautiful. It’s a shame we can’t all learn to open our minds & our hearts to everyone as they do!✌🏻❤️👍

Culture is so amazing in all these different places you've been to, the people are so kind and genuine. Your videos help me to not lose all faith in humanity, and shows how peaceful we can be when we all get together and be one, as we are. You inspire me so much and I hope that I can travel someday, best of luck on your adventures mate. Keep up the great work. Much love from a fellow Aussie. ❤️

It's just propaganda when countries go to war the media spreads lies about the countries they're going to war with in order to make you accept or support the war...when the media shows you that these countries are "backwards" and "violent" and "aggressive" and "oppressive" and "hate the west" and are "full of terrorists" who want to "destroy the whole world" and are "barbaric" then that will make you support the war when in reality these countries are NOTHING like that at all. That's really what it is and in the end war = money so if the people support these wars they can keep having wars for longer and make more money. It's sad but that's what the reality is. Fortunately because of people like Luke and because of the internet people are able to see the truth and do no fall for the government's bullshit that easily anymore and hopefully the truth continues to spread because at the end of the day you'll realize that we are all more the same than different and there's good everywhere and that in the end we all really just wanna live our lives normally and be happy that's simply the truth
