Iraqi bloggers run for office
Reported by Jeff Jarvis: Two Iraqi bloggers -- brothers Ali Fadhil and Mohammed Fadhil of www.IraqTheModel.com -- announced today that they are running for the Iraqi National Assembly... Two citizens who had no voice in their nation a little over a year ago came to blogging and now have a voice that matters and are using that platform to gain a voice in their government... The bloggers have been writing their popular weblog www.IraqTheModel.com since November of 2003. Their weblog has been quoted in major world media, including the BBC, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, National Review, Sydney Morning Herald, Australian Bulletin, Dallas Morning, and New York Post... The bloggers are running under the banner of the Iraqi Pro-Democracy Party. Elections will be held after December 2004.
