The Baghdad Blog, a book

The Baghdad Blog,
a book based on an online diary written by an Iraqi man about life
during the conflict there, is to be made into a film. Media group
Intermedia is searching for a scriptwriter to adapt the book by the
man, who calls himself Salam Pax. "He's like a Nick Hornby in the
middle of a war," Scott Kroopf, chairman of the company's film
division, told film industry website ScreenDaily.com. Salam Pax's
diary, Dear Raed, became an internet sensation during the Iraq war.

So, habibi, you got a movie deal. Good for you.

Just one question, though. Do you think any of this would have been possible if the US hadn't invaded?
