Iraqi Bloggers getting arrested?!
Tell me it isn't true!

If it is, it will be the stake in the heart of the claim that Iraq has been Liberated.

5. Raed Jarrar's brother, apparently.
Edited on Tue Oct-11-05 07:46 PM by MaggieSwanson
Raed had to shut down his comments section because of inflammatory statements posted there.

I've read his blog for a few years now - and before him, Salam Pax - and I'm sad to see this kind of censorship. But I understand. There was one right-wing looney named Jeffrey that would constantly attempt to incite readers into angry comments. He posted every day, multiple times, with some of the most derogatory and ignorant statements I have ever read. I wonder what role he played in this?

If you are curious, and want to flirt with danger (of having viewed Raed's blog - apparently not an appropriate American thing to do), you can find it here...
