In 2003, Dahr Jamail went to Iraq as the world’s least embedded reporter. His courageous reporting of what life was like for ordinary Iraqis made a mark. It was both rare to see such coverage and powerful. Ever since, he has observed how the witch’s brew of outside intervention and exploding sectarian violence has played out in the lives of Iraqis. It couldn’t be a sadder tale, one he started reporting for TomDispatch in 2005 -- even then the subject was “devastation.” Nine years later, he’s back at TD and the devastation is almost beyond imagining. This couldn’t be a timelier report, peppered by accounts from Iraqis he knows about their destabilizing, disintegrating country and what it all means. Don’t miss it. Tom tomdispatch/blog/175869/
