Iraqi Kurdistan
The Kurd TV station. Unlike their fellow Iraqis to the south under Saddam Hussein's regime, Iraqi Kurds enjoy relative freedom of information and press. Since the Kurds obtained protection by US and British warplanes after Iraqi forces brutally crushed their uprising after the Gulf War, the Kurds have started their own TV stations and a plethora of newspapers, magazines and journals are published in Kurdish held areas...Sulaimaniya, Iraqi Kurdistan. 18/11/2002...Photo © J.B.
