REPORTING FIVE YEARS OF THE IRAQ WAR

5 Years in Iraq Many courageous and dedicated journalists and associates have been killed and wounded reporting about Iraq and the Iraq war. In addition to all of those we thanked and expressed our appreciation to in the opening pages of PLAN V For Victory and Peace in Iraq, they too deserve our considerable thanks and support.

On the Fifth Anniversary of the Iraq invasion the Reuters news organization has published on-line an interactive multimedia review titled BEARING WITNESS - FIVE YEARS OF THE IRAQ WAR. The following is from Reuters and we link to their impressive efforts:

Through five years of war, a team of 100 Reuters correspondents, photographers, cameramen and support staff has strived to deliver news to the world from Iraq – the most dangerous country for the press. These are their personal stories, bearing witness through half a decade of conflict which has taken the lives of 127 journalists, including seven Reuters colleagues.
