8/21    Yeah, its Salon, but very interesting nonetheless.  Eyewitness report
        from the only journalists trapped inside the Imam Ali shrine.
        Apparently the widely reported peace deals have never really
        existed.  And now back to your regularly scheduled Really
        Important SwiftBoat Trolls!

        \_ Trapped inside?  How exactly can they be 'trapped' inside?  If they
           want to get out but aren't allowed to then they are hostages.  If
           they want to be there then they are the 'reporter on the scene'.
           \_ Mmmm, maybe you should READ THE ARTICLE and FIND OUT?!

How I got out of the shrine alive Salon's Phillip Robertson talks about his harrowing ordeal inside the Imam Ali shrine in war-ravaged Najaf. On Thursday afternoon, Robertson managed to return to Baghdad, and soon called home to tell us about his nerve-wracking experience, how he got out -- and why the widely reported peace deal never really existed. There are spontaneous demonstrations, there's lots of chanting and singing in support of Sadr, an atmosphere of religious fervor. Outside, however, the Mahdi fighters are still armed and are still fighting. You have two options: Subscribe now, or watch a brief ad and get a free day pass.
