This is something I wondered about. How can Joe Citizen just "go" to Iraq? Don't they check everyone out to make sure they belong there? It's weird, just too, too, weird. If he was with a company, that would be one thing, but all we've heard was that he was a contractor NOT hired by the government. Is there even such a thing as that?

I was having this very discussion with someone today. He did not have a contract to work but rather went there looking for work? That just doesn't make sense to me.

Don't know, I've had no desire to go, but I doubt travel would be restricted. Worst case, a complicated visa procedure (who issue the visa?). He seemed to have a relevant business reason, so I wouldn't think it would be a problem.
