The situation in Iraq for the civilians living there is abysmal. I just read a post from my friend Muhammad, a dentist in Baghdad. There was a sandstorm going on a couple of days ago, so his frustration level was pretty high, but the story is sobering.
Electricity has become so scare in Baghdad that there is none for several days at a time. Gasoline is almost non-existent. Lines at gas stations stretch for blocks and prices are through the roof. This in a country where American oil companies are getting big deals to drill and export oil. If any Iraqi ever wondered why the US was occupying Iraq, the answer is pretty clear.
Read his blog and then complain about the $4.00 a gallon gas here.
