Glimpses of life in Baghdad

Everybody seems to have a story like this right now--with a headline like today's in the New York Times: Baghdad Starts to Exhale as Security Improves. That life is coming back to Baghdad's streets--even as child mortality rates sore, poverty remains endemic, and displacement  continues--is no small thing. In a city synonymous with death, signs of life should be cause for hope. The New York times provides several multimedia glimpses of Baghdad's recent signs of life. Don't miss this opportunity to learn something about Baghdad other than the grim statistics.
