Wanting more Iraq coverage?

As we are always noting, coverage from Iraq is decreasing, not increasing. That's why C.I. now reads through various publications in Arabic to continue to cover Iraq. But we don't all read Arabic. So we wondered if there was some new outlet or reporter worth following that we don't know of?

The answer, British journalist Patrick Smith.

Patrick Smith reports from Iraq on Twitter. And he also posts at Mustaches and Kalashnikovs: Stories from Kurdistan and reports for AK News.

In addition, The Washington Post's Ed O'Keefe (of "The Federal Eye") is out of the US and (briefly) in England before heading to Iraq for several weeks so you can check his Twitter feed as well.
