Two Short BBC reports about Iraq/Iran that will scare the crap out of you
Featured today on the BBC World Service page for Newshour, which I heard this AM...I am providing the direct link to Hassan's interview and also to the Hawley report which immediately followed--VERY GRIM about what is going in Baghdad. That big operation to seal off Baghdad has come to grinding halt, things have worsened, 30 bodies a day in the morgue from the low-level civil war now going on in the streets...these casualties NOT including the suicide bombings, etc.

I woke up to the Hassan interview and got a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach....then came the Hawley report. Made me even sicker...

Regional Effect on Iraq
The Iraqi interior minister is meeting some of his regional counterparts today to discuss their worries that the instability could spread through the region. Prince Hassan of Jordan gave us his views.

1. RealPlayer is teh suq
It would not let me watch the clips on anything but RealPlayer's Spyware Suite.

Needless to say, I didn't watch it.

Anyone care to give a summery?
