The Carnival of the Liberated

   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 thoughts on 9/11, leaving Iraq, Korean hostages, going to the
   videotape, and much, much more.

   [1]Afghan Lord comments on what 9/11 means to Afghanistan.

   [2]Afghan Warrior gives his take on the release of the Korean hostages
   by the Taliban. [3]Sanjar points out the discrepancies in the reports
   that a ransom had been paid for their release.

   [4]Alive in Baghdad has a video taken from a security checkpoint in
   Baghdad that includes interviews with several Iraqis about the
   situation there. Well worth watching.

   [5]Riverbend returns from hiatus long enough to tell us she and her
   family are leaving Iraq. Bon voyage!

   [6]Baghdad Connect claims that the incidents in Karbala last month
   were engineered by the Iraqi government.

   [7]Sunshine anticipates Ramadan.

   [8]Iraqi Konfused Kid reflects on Shi'ism. [9]Five Rings responds.

   [10]Hammorabi calls for the withdrawal of U. S. forces from Iraq.

   Mohammed of [11]Iraq the Model is critical of Osama bin Laden and
   political Islam.

   Violating my normal convention of avoiding linking to posts from
   ex-pat Iraqis in the CotL, I thought you might be interested in
   [12]this post from IraqPundit on the recent OBL tape.

   [13]Thank you, marshmallow26.

   [14]Last of Iraqis posts on electricity in Iraq. With pictures.

   There's an interesting observation on President Bush's surprise visit
   to Anbar from [15]Thoughts from Baghdad

   Dave Schuler posts regularly to his own weblog, [16]The Glittering
   Eye. The Carnival was originally conceived by Ryan Boots.
