She has been blogging FROM IRAQ and telling it as it is.
She has been telling us what the horror looks like in Iraq since she has been experiencing it.
She was the voice of a powerless woman within the inferno we made of Iraq.
She was crying to the world for help. The world didn't listen. Not even the so-called anti-war movement. Even people who post regularly on this message board dared to write obscene comments against this brave woman.
As many other Iraqis, she has been accusing, together with the brutal US-UK occupation and its quisling government, the sectarian militias and particularly al-Sadr's Mahdi Army of mass murdering and ethnic cleansing.
It's not her fault if the West and the so-called Western anti-war movement didn't listen to her (and to the many, many, many other Iraqis in Iraq) and prefered to see in al-Sadr and his drill boys the great movement that would free Iraq.
Nobody knows who this brave woman is. Since the situation in Iraq, if she had been caught she would have been raped, tortured and killed as so many others Iraqis.
There have been many other Iraqi bloggers. Many who would tell the same story she has been telling us.
Iraq doesn't exist anymore and these bloggers' voice will be remembered forever by those who want to oppose the usual business of the victors: rewriting history.
That's what so brave about her blogging.
