Check out the Iraq Weekly Briefing on Small Wars Journal:
From the intro:
"Paul Brinkley, Deputy Under Secretary of Defense, and Philip Reeker, US Embassy, Baghdad, join BG Kevin Bergner, Multi-National Force-Iraq spokesman, in an expansion of the normal weekly Iraq update. Bergner starts off with a security update then turns over to Reeker and Brinkley who discuss reconstruction, economic and political efforts underway to assist the government of Iraq. Of note - Brinkley provides a detailed update on Provincial Reconstruction Teams (PRTs). Q&A follows the formal brief."
I haven’t watched it all yet (it’s almost an hour long), but even the briefing notes give you a lot better picture of what’s going on than the sound-byte approach to news that we usually get.
