It's interesting to note how many people are coming to this website looking for high definition pictures of Iraq. I've updated last week's statistics in the left hand column and it shows we had well over 700 unique visitors last week. The majority of these were looking for picures, so I can do no better than reiterate you should look at The British Ministry of Defence Picture Gallery. Lots of people have moved on from here to there, so hopefully they found what they were looking for.

Let's also hope the civilian police being reformed today in Baghdad will help to curb the Iraqi people's own destruction of their capital city and some sort of normality will return soon for these people. We're still watching for Raed to return of course. I'm surprised, given the amount of internatonal interest in him and the impartial way he wrote, that the Americans have not sought him out and got him to a military internet connection.
