Never mind the maze of concrete blocks and the endless traffic jams -
today we get our new currency

I have never seen concrete blocks so big. Baghdad is being turned into
this huge concrete blocks display - we have them in all shapes and
sizes. When I started complaining, my friend G told me I should see
this as our version of the Berlin Wall. "Just imagine all those miles
of wall graffiti".
They are moving back into their safe caves. They are barricading
themselves behind tons of reinforced concrete. Another Saddam-like
move by the liberators. This is the kind of stuff you hear being said
about those huge walls. We thought the walls around the ministries and
the palaces would go after Saddam was kicked off his throne; instead
we just got even uglier ones because the new walls are just bare
concrete. And the traffic jams are unbelievable; at least a quarter of
the city has been paralysed because of the various roadblocks.
