My wife gets all the props for this.  HometownBaghdad.com isn’t the evening news, but rather some college kids in Baghdad with video cameras and compelling stories.  They’re saying:

The brave Iraqi subjects and crew risked their lives every time they turned on a camera to make this series. They want to show the world what life is like when your hometown is a war-zone. We believe that people who see their stories will want to share them with others. That’s why we’re distributing the series online. So please – watch the videos, rewatch them, tell friends about them, comment on them, and link to them.

They’re up to 45 video episodes – all of which can be found on YouTube.

Without any exaggeration, I can say I am in shock and awe.
