De "Coalition of the Willing" waarmee men Irak aan het bevrijden is begint de nodige haarscheurtjes te vertonen. Dat het koninkrijk Tonga zich in december uit Irak terugtrok was nog te overzien. Maar dat voorbeeld werd gevolgd door Hongarije, Portugal en Moldava. Eerder vertrokken al Nicaragua, Spanje, Dominicaanse Republiek, Honduras, Philippeinen, Thailand en Nieuw Zeeland. Aan het vertrekken/van plan te vertrekken: Nederland, Polen, Bulgarije, Oekraine en nu ook Italie (timesonline).
Een uitgebreid fotoarchief van de oorlog in Irak gefotografeerd door soldaten zelf: Under Mars.
Het betreft met name de eerste fase van de oorlog en niet het laatste jaar vol terroristische aanslagen. Mooie plaatjes soms, maar ook gruwelijke beelden soms voorzien van bot commentaar / soldatenhumor:
“that was one hell of a speed bump” & “new meaning to giving head”.

Wie krijgt straks de credits voor de op-het-oog positieve democratische ontwikkelingen in het Midden-Oosten? Amerikaanse militaire druk, europese diplomatie of arabisch doorzettingsvermogen?
Mustapha Kamel el-Sayyid, hoogleraar politicologie aan de universiteit van Cairo betoogt dat de huidige democratische ontwikkelingen al ver voor de invasie van Irak zijn ingezet. De democratische situatie in het Midden-Oosten is ook lang niet zo deplorabel geweest als menig amerikaanse neo-con ons wil doen geloven. Bovendien moeten arabieren doorgaans niets hebben van amerikanen noch europeanen, druk vanuit westerse kant zal dus alleen averechts werken. Nee, het is de opstand van de rijke arabische middenklasse, aldus el-Sayyid. Net zoals dat ging met de europese bourgeoisie die eerst economische macht vergaarde en daarna meer rechten afdwong.
In Beiroet werd al gekscherend gesproken van de ‘Gucci-revolutie’, vanwege de sjieke dames die in merkkleding en op hoge hakken aan het protest deelnamen. (Wereldomroep)
Gucci-revolutie…? Oordeelt u zelf: fotocollage 1 en 2.
Ongeveer 40% van de uitgestrekte moerassen in Zuid-Irak kan worden hersteld, dit was de boodschap op een wetenschappelijk congres dat vorige week in Washington werd gehouden. Saddam Hussein legde het woongebied van de zogenaamde moeras-arabieren destijds droog om deze sjiieten te straffen voor hun opstand aan het eind van de eerste Golfoorlog. Maar al sinds de Arabische Wende is de lokale bevolking begonnen met het doorsteken van dammen en vloeit er weer water over de vlakten die ooit het grootste wetland van Eurazi
De redactie van Sargasso bestaat uit een club vrijwilligers. Naast zelf artikelen schrijven struinen we het internet af om interessante artikelen en nieuwswaardige inhoud met lezers te delen. We onderhouden zelf de site en houden als moderator een oogje op de discussies. Je kunt op Sargasso terecht voor artikelen over privacy, klimaat, biodiversiteit, duurzaamheid, politiek, buitenland, religie, economie, wetenschap en het leven van alle dag.
Om Sargasso in stand te houden hebben we wel wat geld nodig. Zodat we de site in de lucht kunnen houden, we af en toe kunnen vergaderen (en borrelen) en om nieuwe dingen te kunnen proberen.
Onder druk van de Verenigde Staten heeft Iran autoraces voor vrouwen georganiseerd. Tijdens deze races viel de 28-jarige promovendus Laleh Seddigh op door haar excellente rijvaardigheid. Deskundigen menen dat ze zich met gemak kan meten met mannelijke autocoureurs. Dozens applauded and cheered as a tiny figure in a blue headscarf appeared on the stage. (BBCNews)
Voor de Amerikaanse staatsburgers onder ons deze schitterende job opportunity: Je wordt er schatrijk van en kunt er wereldberoemd mee worden. Je kunt Bin Laden vangen, Weapons of Mass Destruction ontdekken en de missing link met 9/11 implementeren. Je kunt darmkanalen verkennen met stukken hout, geytenneukers meppen, en burkhas in de fik steken. A splendid time is guaranteed for all !
Waarom je eigenlijk Amerikaans staatsburger moet zijn ontgaat me een beetje; het is toch “either with us, or with the terrorists” ?
Word nu ook Interrogator for Iraq ! (bij Calnet)
Wapeninspecteur Scott Ritter heeft gisteren voor een volle zaal in Washington State voorspeld dat de Verenigde Staten in juni 2005 Iran zullen gaan bombarderen. De aanval zal gericht zijn op de nucleaire installaties, maar neo-conservatieven hopen dat het tevens een regime change katalyseert in deze perzische theocratie.
President George W. Bush has received and signed off on orders for an aerial attack on Iran planned for June 2005. This next phase of the war could be stopped, but Scott Ritter fears Iraq might be remembered as a rather small event preceding a much greater conflagration. (DailyKos)
Sargasso heeft privacy hoog in het vaandel staan. Nu we allemaal meer dingen online doen is een goede VPN-service belangrijk om je privacy te beschermen.

Sorry jongens maar even een follow up-je; het arme kind dat onthoofd is (van haar 2e hoofd dan) verkeert “in kritieke toestand” (ANP).
En ze blijven maar bij die bewering dat dat 2e hoofd “geen verbinding met de organen” had. Nou ben ik geen medicus maar ik weiger te geloven dat een hoofd dat er na 11 maanden zo uitziet (niet echt fris maar ook niet echt vies, alles is relatief) geen enkele verbinding heeft met “de organen”.
Sargasso is een laagdrempelig platform waarop mensen kunnen publiceren, reageren en discussiëren, vanuit de overtuiging dat bloggers en lezers elkaar aanvullen en versterken. Sargasso heeft een progressieve signatuur, maar is niet dogmatisch. We zijn onbeschaamd intellectueel en kosmopolitisch, maar tegelijkertijd hopeloos genuanceerd. Dat betekent dat we de wereld vanuit een bepaald perspectief bezien, maar openstaan voor andere zienswijzen.
In de rijke historie van Sargasso – een van de oudste blogs van Nederland – vind je onder meer de introductie van het liveblog in Nederland, het munten van de term reaguurder, het op de kaart zetten van datajournalistiek, de strijd voor meer transparantie in het openbaar bestuur (getuige de vele Wob-procedures die Sargasso gevoerd heeft) en de jaarlijkse uitreiking van de Gouden Hockeystick voor de klimaatontkenner van het jaar.
