The Baghdad cab

[video:liveleak:979_1206832312] Steve Bent, a photographer at the Sunday Times, takes a leisurely cab ride through Baghdad,

At that time of day, the journey of about four miles from our compound to Assassins’ Gate would take 30-40 minutes. And so the order came down to get us there in 10 minutes flat. We are back in the car, with two wheels on the central reservation and the boss, an aide to the politician, threatening to shoot any driver too slow to pull over. I have decided that if I am going to die in a crash then at least I am going to record it on video. link
