Depois de 3 anos da horrenda ocupação pelo Estado Islâmico, Mosul foi vítima de uma batalha sangrenta. Cerca de 2 milhões de pessoas foram usadas como escudos humanos à mercè das bombas, snipers, fome e várias doenças, no maior sequestro colectivo que há memória. Mas de Portugal, um movimento da sociedade civil, encabeçado pelo médico Gustavo Carona, organizou-se para o envio de centenas de cartas na forma do livro "1001 Cartas para Mosul," que abriram um canal de comunicação que parecia impossível. Este é o livro das respostas. Novamente através de cartas, são agora os iraquianos, que sofreram o inimaginável, que nos contam o que lhes vai no coração. After 3 years of the horrific occupation by the Islamic State, Mosul was the victim of a bloody battle. About 2 million people were used as human shields, being at the mercy of bombs, snipers, various diseases, in the largest collective kidnapping there is memory. But from Portugal, a civil society movement led by Dr. Gustavo Carona, organized the sending of hundreds of letters in the form of a book "1001 Letters to Mosul," which opened a communication channel that seemed impossible. This is the book of answers. Through letters again, it is now the Iraqis, who have suffered the unimaginable, who tell us what is in their hearts.
