aka Bagdad Burning. This is an incredible blog from a young woman in Iraq (now relocated to Syria). She has been writing since 2003. I have learned much more about the current Iraq war from her first hand accounts than from news sources available in this country, and it is an important woman's viewpoint as that is rarely heard in the currently climate.
