BBC: Bianca Jagger on war in Iraq (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/middle_east/03/post_saddam_iraq/iessays/bianca_jagger/html/bb_index.htm)

Also available are other video essays, accompanied by author bio, transcript, and reader/viewer comments, which I have not watched yet. Ms. Jagger's commentary is dignified but scorching.

(A sarcastic aside to certain members of the war party: Yeah, peace advocates rejoice at the errors of the Bush administration. Whatever.)

Happy reading, happy viewing.

UK MP Ann Clwyd (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/middle_east/03/post_saddam_iraq/iessays/ann_clwyd/html/bb_index.htm)'s video essay will delight Jerrek, at least. It has a couple of good swipes at the French.

Wyn Bowen (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/middle_east/03/post_saddam_iraq/iessays/wyn_bowen/html/bb_index.htm), a weapons inspector ... okay, okay. I'm sitting here watching them as I type.

So there.

Martin Bell (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/shared/spl/hi/middle_east/03/post_saddam_iraq/iessays/martin_bell/html/index.htm), a BBC war correspondent sounds off on the media. I have yet to watch this one.

Okay, so I got distracted and watched it.

Anyway, it's a pretty cool little commentary feature. Haven't a clue where to start the topic yet ....
