HW 19: iraqi's eye view

The third paragraph on page 84 discusses a blogger by the name of “Baghdad Blogger” from Iraq. His blog began so small and as more of a diary than anything else but what his blog really means is what life is like in a war zone, it is a newsflash for those of us who don’t know what it is like, it is his outlet to inform the world about what is happening in Iraq. For example, he tells about what really caused the three-day blackout in Iraq, it was a technological error not the US, not anyone or a country. It was a mistake by them, but that is not how the media portrayed it. Essentially, I’m saying that his blog is real. It is information from an Iraqi’s view of what is happening to his people in his country to and by his people. How can anyone argue what he has to say about what he sees on a daily basis? It is Iraq from an Iraqi.
