Iraqi Bloggers Cope With the ViolencePosted on Dec 21, 2006
In this powerful collection of blogs from recent days, Iraqis react to the violence sweeping their nation. Here’s Meemo, a 19-year-old from Baghdad who’s getting out: “I leave Baghdad in two days.... I’m not going to see death anymore; I’m not going to hear car explosions again; I will come back to life again.”

God Bless these people. I only hope that the terrorists and tyrants who plague their lands (which is NOT the U.S. soldiers trying to protect them) are finally crushed.
It’s a shame that Saddam’s regime held such a tight grip over these people (and used the country to train terrorists, see http://www.regimeofterror.com) for such a long time and when he is removed these people STILL don’t get to see peace.
I appreciate coming on this liberal blog and you guys educating me by the way.
Merry Christmas all!!

The present in Iraq may well become our own future. Our pathetic excuse of an administration has forever changed the fragile balance of the Middle East. Bu$h has belly flopped into the middle of the Iraqi pool and the ripples will effect us all.

My heart goes out to these people. What this administration and their right wing zealots have done is criminal.

I was going to say we’re no better than animals, but that would disparage animals.
