WaPo reporter survives Iraqi Parliament bombing - reports experience in amazing audio stream
Edited on Thu Apr-12-07 04:52 PM by Tin Man
Sudarsan Raghavan was in the cafeteria during the bomb attack - one of the fatalities occurred at the table adjacent to his own. Incredibly, Sudarsan escaped with relatively minor injuries considering his proximity to the blast. He recounts his experience in an audio stream on the WaPo website - amazing reporting, a "must listen" first person account.

2. Amazing!
For someone who was 4 ft. away from one of the fatalities, he sounds really calm!

Thanks for posting this, Tin Man.
