A lens in the labyrinth of the refugee slums
By Michael Swan, The Catholic Register
Take a look at Za Aytiryya, the neighbourhood where Iraqi Christian refugees live in Beirut. Or take a tour the Umayyad Mosque in Damascus for a glimpse of a Muslim world. Or meet the child refugees whose lives are also on hold, waiting for resettlement.
These three slide shows give another view of the shrinking world of Iraqi refugees.
