   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've
   got Afghan diplomacy, red on red, a blogger has a narrow escape, and
   much, much more.

   [1]Afghan Lord reports on the murder of two Afghan woman journalists.

   [2]Afghan Warrior comments on the Afghan-Pakistani peace conference.
   More on the issues at stake from [3]Sanjar.

   [4]Sunleaf is skeptical about the skills of Afghan diplomats and cites
   the example of the negotiations of the loan of Afghan artifacts for a
   touring exhibition in the U. S.

   [5]Baghdad Connect takes a rather jaundiced view of the Sunni Arab
   opposition to al-Qaeda forces being mounted in Anbar Province.

   The second installment in Iraqi Konfused Kid's translation of the
   al-Wardi article on the social history of Iraq I linked to last week
   [6]is here. The third installment [7]is here. He makes a point I've
   made from time to time myself: don't confuse traditional tribal values
   with Islamic values (even if those holding them conflate the two).

   [8]Hammorabi says that the U. S. and British forces in Iraq aren't
   living up to their responsibilities.

   [9]Ishtarria has posted another installment in her never-ending
   romance novel.

   [10]Ibn al-Rafidain has posted another installment in his series on
   de-Ba'athification.

   [11]Marshmallow26 had a narrow escape with a roadside bomb.

   [12]The Mesopotamian is moving to Canada.

   Dave Schuler posts regularly to his own weblog, [13]The Glittering
   Eye. The Carnival was originally conceived by Ryan Boots.
