For what it may be worth,Allegra is currently in Iraq.

She has a pretty good idea of what is going on there and the practical realities of the place.

The "For what it may be worth" part at the beginning looking at it now seems quite inappropriate and a poor choice of words.

What you are doing there means a great deal,and wouldn`t want to imply anything otherwise.

Apologies to you.
