Subject: Yet another source list for Iraq maps

Just in case you have need of some online resources about Iraq, while
searching for something else entirely I found this Congressional
Research
Service Short Report dated May 2003 with links for Iraq map information.
They're not too exotic (CNN and BBC are there), but if you're grasping
for
some sites to offer to patrons, these can help, esp. with humanitarian
links.

The weird part is that due to the general restrictions on distribution
of
CRS reports, you need to go through a congressional office to request
stuff. Two congresspeople are posting the stuff to the web through their
websites - Here's one of them:

Go to http://www.house.gov/markgreen/crs.htm (Mark Green of WI 8th
District/ CRS page)
Click on  Short Reports Link
Look down the alphabetical list for "Iraq: Maps"
Takes you to a link for a 6-page PDF containing some links and three
reference maps

At least one link (the Humanitarian Information Centre) has been
changed:
http://www.humanitarianinfo.org/iraq/index.htm
