The April 2 blog on Inside Iraq offers an example of interactivity at its prime. Leila Fadel wrote an article on April 1 based around the human effects of the latest violence in Baghdad. She went to the Imam Ali Hospital in Sadr City and interviewed several of the injured.
Fadel wrote in her article that the U.S. military was going after armed people in the area and that these people were not targeted, but victims caught in the battle.
There are, however always two sides to a story and this was voiced by "her friend in the military." He explained in his email the dilemna these officers face. They are under order to attack back if fired at. They have an obligation to do so in order to protect their troops.
This post shows the interactivity of blogs. Within a day of writing the article, the reader can view another point of view and also link back to the original article. They then have the opportunity to comment and offer their own viewpoint.
