   Welcome to the Carnival of the Liberated, a sampler of some of the
   best posts of the week from Iraqi and Afghan bloggers. This week we
   have a trip on the Silk Road, cab conversation, marriage in the Green
   Zone, and much, much more.

   [1]Afghan Lord continues the story of his journey through on an
   exotic, ancient, and dangerous path.

   [2]Afghan Warrior traces Afghanistan's recent past and paints an
   optimistic picture of its future.

   Check out video blog [3]Alive in Baghdad.

   Despite everything [4]Allawie continues to believe in Iraq.

   [5]Baghdad Bacon & Eggs recounts the three mandatory topics of
   conversation when taking a cab.

   [6]Children's Voice from Iraq posts on burgul (bulghur wheat).

   Omar of [7]Iraq the Model comments on the Iraq Study Group report.

   [8]Iraqi Rocker, in a long, rambling paragraph that consists of a
   single sentence, sums up the reasons for the present situation in Iraq
   pretty well, I think.

   Ishtar of [9]Iraqi Screen's rather impressionistic post makes a
   transition from something that sounds like a con job to me (probably
   pretty common in Iraq today) to the bleak situation in Baghdad.

   [10]Nabil posts pictures of an explosion that took place just meters
   from his gate.

   [11]neurotic iraqi wife posts on marriage in the Green Zone.

   Dave Schuler posts regularly to his own weblog, [12]The Glittering
   Eye. The Carnival was originally conceived by Ryan Boots.
