Kevin:
     If you want some real ideas for reporting in Iraq, what I think we don't get the picture of on regular news is the inside politics and political science so to speak of the various groups there. For instance you hear alot about the Shi'ite being in Sunni controlled areas, or of the marsh Arabs having been part of the ruthless Saddam dictatorship and regime, or of the Kurds there in Northern IRAQ. However little if anything is said how these groups see themselves in relation to each other in the Coalition Provisional Authority. Much less seems to be said about the tribal difficulties and whether some or any of them really want to be a part of a greater IRAQ or are more aligned with other Arabic nationalities. There needs to be some more reporting along these lines to see if there is a consensus among these tribes or if the damage done by the Sunni and/or Baathists has changed the nature of what we now know of IRAQ.
