Go to the Iraqi bloggers. Not just one or two, but many of them. From Riverbend all the way to Iraq the Model, they make up a broad spectrum of opinions, and a lot of opinions helps you build the bigger picture. Same for military bloggers in Iraq. Any one of them will also have links to many others. I'd like to think some of you have at least one or two bookmarked by now.
