Iraqis residing in Japan expressed concern Tuesday for their loved ones back home who face imminent war following the 48-hour ultimatum issued by U.S. President George W. Bush.
"I am worried about my family," said Mohammed Kassab, 50, who has lived in Japan for almost 20 years. "But frankly, there is nothing I can do."
Kassab's wife and children live in Japan, as do a younger brother and other relatives, but his mother and other siblings, as well as many friends, are in Iraq.
