(Sorry, pictures got erased)

Where is this busy looking city? This photo is from Google Earth satellite photo the date is 2006. Hint: It sits between two rivers, the Euphrates and the Tigris.

Yes, it is Baghdad.

Have you ever seen this picture in your local newspaper or news cast? No, I don't think so. All you ever see on the news is a bombed out building in the slums. Our media is so biased that they won't even show an actual satellite view of the so called bombed out city. I can show you worse destruction on North Broad street in Philadelphia.

What opened in 2004 in Baghdad? Answer is The Baghdad stock market. Did you even know that Iraq had a stock market? You will never see that in the news? Yes, it is small compared to some countries, but it does exist.

The best place to find the real story is to use the internet and use your own eyes. Don't depend on the news media to supply it.
