This entry on the IraqtheModel blog. The blog is written by Iraqis living in Iraq, not ex-pats. Very interesting and actual GOOD NEWS that the networks really do not show. Ali is the pseudonymous poster on this entry and Ali's uncle now has disposable income ($400/month, up from $7/month under Saddam) and can afford to buy things for his kids, like clothes, food, and luxury items and is saving up to buy his eldest son a car.
The best part: the conclusion by "Ali":
Please, all those who care about the poor Iraqis and want to save them from the brutality of the American invaders and who want to prevent the Americans from stealing our fortune; meaning Bin laden, Zagrawi and their followers, Arab and Muslim tyrants, our good friend monsieur Dominique de Villepin, all the pacifists of the world, the major media, and in short, all those who hate America and obviously love Iraq: Get your s**t together and DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT or else one or two years from now Iraq will be…a prosperous country, and then we will never forgive you for letting us down when we needed you!
Besides, how would you face us if my cousin got a car and had an accident?!
