HERE IS AL-JAZEERA'S WEBSITE

In case you haven't seen it yet: http://www.aljazeera.net/. Right now you can click on the main story, and under the icon that looks like a video camera, you can watch a film of ordinary folks in Iraq milling about and talking to reporters. The top link in the video section gives you a Washington summary (I gather), the second link gives you Iraqis. I wish I could understand what people are saying.

While you're there, you'll at least want to check out the images in the section of the special report called "Iraq Blockade."

Al Jazeera boasts 800 million viewers. Probably you'll want to see for yourself what kinds of images they'll be seeing the next few days.
