If that blog was actually written by an Iraqi...in Iraq...who is not a member of the INC...I'll eat my hat.

You want fries with that hat? His name is Husayn Uthman and he lives in Baghdad, according to the other Iraqi bloggers. Check out

Iraq the Model iraqthemodel.blogspot.com

and Free Iraqi iraqilibe.blogspot.com

by Omar and Mohammed, and Ali Fadhil, three brothers, who were started blogging by Zeyad of

Healing Iraq healingiraq.blogspot.com

Zeyad and at least one of the Fadhil brothers are dentists and friends that way. Zeyad started blogging first, and got the Fadhil brothers into it. Read a number of the posts. Read the archives. These people sound as real and you and me (btw do you exist, or are you the invention of the new DNC?) - and guess what? They just want to be modern people living in a normal country, free to do and say as they please without fear.

Voices from Iraq ratzingerfanclub.com

gives a good rundown of the different blogs, who don't have all the same views by any means. Riverbend is a young woman, very anti American. I think of her as a 'Baathist princess' because she spends most her time whining about how it was better under Saddam. It's clear that her family lead a privileged life under Saddam.

Go read the blogs, then ask yourself why you have trouble believing that modern people should actually exist in Baghdad or Mosul, without being inventions of the INC.
