“In July 2005, Khalid Jarrar—another Iraqi blogger whose posts Hadiya sometimes refers to—was arrested at his Baghdad university for “reading terrorist websites.” The websites in question were those of the Iraqi bloggers Raed Jarrar, Khalid’s brother (raedinthemiddle.blogspot.com), and Riverbend (riverbendblog.blogspot.com). After Khalid’s arrest, people around the world protested to the Iraqi government until he was released. Hadiya’s sister Najma helped to create an internet petition for his release. Khalid’s account of his arrest and release is online at http:// secretsinbaghdad.blogspot.com/ 2005_07_01_archive.html.”
