Hmm. Here's what I've noted:

1) See Kevin Sites' site. Was very impressed.
2) Saw Kevin Sites' report on CNN TV. He basically says exactly where he is in Northern Iraq, notes that he's travelling with an almost unarmed group of escorts, and oh yeah, there's a bunch of Iraqi's over that hill with bigger weapons.
3) See Kevin Sites' site shut down. Point out that this might have to do with #2.
[skip a few weeks]
4) Watch report this morning about how the information minister of Iraq threatened CNN's bureau chief with "the severest possible consequences" if CNN sends reporters into Northern Iraq. Then watch report from Kurdish police files showing confessions of those who were going to blow up the CNN "compound" with about a ton of explosives.
5) Read this today.

Kevin -- thanks for surviving :-) Can't wait to read the transcript...
