Into Iraq - A Traveler's Journal
With the deterioration of the security situation in Iraq, many westerners are venturing into the war zone to discover the facts, surrounding Iraqi life, for themselves.
(PRWEB) July 31, 2004 -- The latest story at Polos Bastards (www.polosbastards.com) details the journey of one such traveler. In the first of a three-part series, Daniel Smith, an American who visited Iraq in June/July, tells of the details of his entry to the conflict zone, as well as his meetings with the US military and local Iraqis.
Many of the details of daily life in Iraq, according to Smith, are disquieting, such as the audacity of some insurgents in Kirkuk. There is an insurgent cell leader who was captured, sent to Abu Ghraib Prison, released because of the scandal, and then actually paid them [the US Military command] a visit to say that he was back."
Information on how to do this type of traveling is a valuable commodity for those brave enough to venture into Iraq, but unfortunately it is always changing due to the security situation," says Lee Ridley, editor of Polos Bastards. Stories like Daniels are a big help to others, who want to find out the situation for themselves by going there, or for those who want a fresh perspective on the country."
Into Iraq -- A Travelers Journal -- Part 1" by Daniel Smith appears at www.polosbastards.com from July, 29.
