The internet has opened the world to communication in ways utterly impossible before. I think, in times of war, to communicate with individuals living within those countries with whom we are at war, is a very exciting thing.

Perhaps, with enough communication, we can eradicate war!

Perhaps, if the individual members of countries really talk to one another, their governments will not be able to go to war - because the people won't stand for it!

Here is a blog of a woman living in Baghdad:

Baghdad Burning.

I have found it very interesting reading.
