Lots of tourists come around here, mainly to The marshes, the city of Babylon and Ur, yearly from the month of November to April where the temperature rates are at it's modest. I recommend you coming here, it's not that scary really from the tourists perspective.
I'd love to visit Iraq and other parts of the middle east, but the culture surrounding women and their rights prevents me from going. I havent checked out Iraq specifically, but based on my reading of nearby Egypt, it's so ass backwards that I couldn't in good conscience take my wife there. The risk of sexual harassment, assault, etc is just too great.
