This dude, Ahmed Abdullah, lives in Baghdad and records an audio diary. He used to be Dick Gordon's (NPR) translator, and now somehow, sends recordings a couple of times a month.

This one almost made me cry. http://thestory.org/special-features/ah ... h_2006.mp3

i seriously i dunno how could you live is such a messed up country like that, i talked with my buddy in baghdad couple days ago, he said it's getting more fucked up nowadays, he never mention about dead bodies, but yet he was force to leave along with a big sound of a gunshot in the back, and he just hung up the phone, i haven't talk to him since then i'm hoping he's ok.
