First, a disclaimer:

I happened to stumble across this and make no claims as to its validity (though a quick search revealed no sites claiming it's fraudulent). Further, it is most certainly biased as could be expected. However, I found the difference in perspective rather interesting: especially the outsider's view of American history. If nothing else, it makes one think a bit. At least for some people it will.

Thanks, Raven. it's always interesting to spend a few minutes at well written blog, no matter what you might think of the content.

For an interesting overview of Iraqi bloggers you might want to sample this:

Some of these are US military stationed in Iraq, some are Iraqi's -but you do definately get a different view from reading blogs than you do from a US newspaper.

Bias is good! makes for more lively conversation, anyway.

Don't forget the first (http://dear_raed.blogspot.com/). He's now a journalist for the Guardian, but he hasn't posted in awhile.
