Teaching those in the South

Posted in New Kurdish Posts, Southern Kurdistan/Northern Iraq at 2:06 am by kurdistanblogcount

Talk about the Passion is a blog written by a gentleman who will be teaching in Northern iraq/Southern Kurdistan for the next 6 months, I think that this one will be a fun one to watch in the future.

Additionally, here is a link to a translation of an article about the Kurds in Kirkuk from the blog Nur al-Cubicle.

New Blog and a Bit of a Plug

Posted in Kurdish Blog Updates, New Kurdish Posts, Southern Kurdistan/Northern Iraq at 1:41 am by kurdistanblogcount

Sorry I have been absent the past few days, I have been feeling under the weather.

New find for today, a site called NorthIraq.com, it is very similar in terms of web address to some of the other Kurdish sites. This one doesn’t focus especially on the Kurds, but rather on all of the ethnic groups in the area. It takes a nice holistic approach, and while it has blog updates, it focuses primarily on news stories in the region.

I would like to draw everyone’s attention to the blog Save ROJ TV, they are doing some wonderful things trying to mobelize citizen action to prevent the shut down of their Holland based Kurdish television station.
