Polio victim Saleh and his wife, Shahla, came to Amman in 2003. Their savings are now depleted, so Jordanian neighbors and international NGOs such as the International Rescue Committee help them with cash handouts. (Photo: Anna Husarska/The IRC)

"Some refugees living outside Iraq will return when conditions improve; others have decided they will never go back because they belong to persecuted minorities or because they have reason to believe they would suffer or be killed upon return."
- IRC senior policy adviser Anna Husarska in a photo essay posted on Slate earlier this month that depicts the everyday lives of Iraqi refugees in Jordan
