If only this world was a clean board of lines and intersections. If only time was a sequence of considered moves and not a chaos of slippages and blunders.

Aims of course SAMPLEWhen I first started teaching “The Iraq War" in the summerONLY of 2007 (the height of the civil war that was tearing Iraq apart, as we will see), I would often get the question, "The Iraq War? But that’s not history.” Since that time, however, something of a consensus has emerged regarding the main trajectory of the war, even as we still await an end to the longer war the 2003 invasion initiated.

  • The Baghdad Blog
    > The Baghdad Blog Salam Pax is a pseudonym. He lives in Baghdad, Iraq. ‘“Salam Pax” is an extremely talented writer. The singularity of his position and subject matter can lead one to overlook this, but I was aware of it as soon as I started reading him, just prior to the war. The fact that English is not his first language actually underscores his gifts of observation and expression; he’ll write “around” his own uncertainty of usage, and get it right on the button.’ William Gibson ‘The most vivid account of the Iraq conflict’ Guardian ‘Salam Pax not only highlighted the deficiencies of embedded media, [his] blog became required reading for anyone needing to find out what was really happening on the ground during the US-led invasion.’ Globe and Mail ‘The reliable chronicler of the chaos’ Spiegel ‘A mysterious Iraqi who goes by the name of “Salam Pax” and who writes a blog (internet diary) from Baghdad is becoming a celebrity, on the internet, with his first-hand stories of a city under siege . the traffic on the site has become so intense that it has blocked the server, while his e-mail has gone on the blink due to the vast number of messages from people who are ask- ing him to prove his true identity.’ La Stampa ‘Salam Pax, the anonymous Iraqi blogger who went worryingly silent during the US invasion, is back. And he makes up by clearing the backlog . His account of Baghdad since the liberation is fascinating. It is far better than anything you’ll read in the newspapers.

  • The Effects of the Internet on the 2003 Iraq
    Karatzogianni, A: `The Impact of the Internet during the Iraq war on the peace movement, war coverage and war-related cyberattacks', Cultural Technology and Policy Journal, Vol. 1, 2004. In the particular case of post-September 11 information warfare, the assertions of US unity by the Bush administration have resulted in a context in which public statements directed to the international community are interpreted as representative of the US as a political entity and not just the utterances of a particular individual in the current administration.1 Before and during the March 2003 Iraq war, information technologies, and particularly the internet, inspired several groups belonging to all sorts of different backgrounds and ideologies to voice their opinion on the war and in certain instances to engage in symbolic hacking against opposing groups or institutions. But still, the principal originality of this conflict was the effect of the internet on war coverage. This section looks at three levels of the internet's role in the conflict: its effect on the organisation and spread of the peace movement, its impact on war coverage and the issue of war-related cyberconflicts. Before delving deeper, it would be helpful to explain again that with the advent of the internet, new forms of conflict have emerged, not directly linked with information warfare but rather, connected to a more subtle form of societal netwar2, where new social movements, ethnic groups and terrorists use the internet to organise, acquire resources and attack `the other side'. Despite the high-tech name, the groups involved have quite traditional political goals - power, participation, democracy, alternative ideologies - using, however, a postmodern, interactive medium.

Writing is a solitary activity; it takes time; it requires endurance, and it constantly raises doubts – doubts about writing itself, doubts about scholarship, and doubts about life in its entirety. If the writer manages to overcome these obstacles, then the latter become part of the work itself, woven into the network of arguments, making them even stronger and more forceful in expression. This overcoming of challenges, however, cannot be done in solitude.
