NYT Special Op-Eds [Important Read]
“The contributors on this page are Iraqi writers and English translators, two of whom worked for the American military. Because of their work, they were hunted by death squads and only escaped Iraq with assistance from PEN and the Norwegian government. Larry Siems, director of the Freedom to Write Program at PEN American Center, interviewed them in Norway, where they have political asylum. These essays are adapted from his interviews.”

I can only open one, Fear of Freedom
Posted on 20-Nov-06 at 7:02 pm | PermalinkThat’s really strange: all three links go to the same article. Can’t figure it out, since the links are clearly different. Must be a glitch at the Times. Best bet: go to the Times site and access them individually.
Sorry.
