Igor Klimes is now a desk officer for People in Need, helping organise the Czech NGO's operations around the world. But three and a half years ago he was working on the ground in the southern Iraqi province of Misan, where the infrastructure had been left in tatters are years of conflict. At People in Need's headquarters near Prague's Nusle bridge, Igor Klimes recalled his impressions of Iraq when he arrived in the country in September 2003, less than six months after the US-led invasion.
