Did you check Google Earth recently?
go now and take a look at Baghdad, they seem to have updated their images to post war pictures. You can tell from the pictures of the republica palace, before you used to see the gardens now you see the rows and rows of trailers the coalition has set up there. In other places you can see the hige sand boxes and t-walls set up in various spots in Baghdad.
When I looked at our house it looked as if we had visitors when the picture was taken, there is an extra car parking in our garage.
