Three years after US forces symbolically toppled a statue of Saddam Hussein in the Iraqi capital, 'Baghdad blogger' Salam Pax says things look bleaker than ever for his country.
"One of the tragedies of this ongoing war is that no one knows how many Iraqi lives have been lost.
"And those of us who have survived so far now risk losing our country," he told BBC Newsnight.
Baghdad resident Mr Pax came to prominence documenting the Iraq war from an Iraqi perspective on his weblog.
In taking stock of the situation three years on from the symbolic felling of the statue, Mr Pax says he is "more negative about the future than ever". |
