Near Real Time Satellite Images of Iraq
Depending on satellite availability, daily images will be posted here of the Middle East from the NOAA POES/LAC data. This data has a maximum nadir or center resolution of 1km per pixel. Images normally will be updated once a day between 1430 and 1500 GMT (09:30 and 10:00 EST), with a second potential update between 2330 and 0100 GMT (1830 to 2000 EST) using thermal IR data. These are mostly false color views designed to be visually pleasing and bring out some ground details.

Viewers losing interest in war
In the media war - as in the war itself to some extent - disillusion has set in.
Audiences are slipping and the novelty of the wall-to-wall coverage, with its unprecedented media access to the front line, has worn off.
Only a few days ago, millions in Britain and elsewhere were marvelling at the live TV battle coverage from Umm Qasr and applauding the freedom granted to the correspondents and camera crews "embedded" with fighting units.
Now the drawbacks of this torrent of media coverage are becoming apparent.

ALJAZEERA.NET DOMAIN HACKED AND MOVED TO MYDOMAIN.COM
Arab satellite TV network’s nameservers changed to MyDomain URL forwarding service by hacker; MyDomain reacts by suspending service.
VANCOUVER, Wash. – MyDomain.com, host to more than 600,000 domain names using its free URL forwarding and e-mail services, discovered this morning the domain aljazeera.net had been moved to MyDomain servers. MyDomain has learned from NavLink, the company that hosts the aljazeera.net Web site from its data centers in France, that Al Jazeera’s domain name account at Network Solutions was compromised. The hacker changed the Web site’s nameservers to point to MyDomain nameservers and erected a page displaying the American flag.

FBI to investigate Al-Jazeera Web hijack
Visitors to both the Arabic and English versions of the Al-Jazeera Web site on Thursday were greeted with an American flag and a pro-US message, the work of an apparent online vandal.
The FBI has opened an investigation into the attack on Al-Jazeera's Web site, a representative with the bureau has said. The Middle Eastern news service was the victim of a domain hijacking. The actual defacement appeared on a free Web site service provided by NetWorld Connections. Technically known as a "redirect," the hack caused Web browsers that attempted to go to www.aljazeera.net -- as well as the English-language site -- to be surreptitiously redirected to the content hosted on NetWorld's servers.

Kashmir militants 'cut off villagers' noses'
Muslim separatists have cut off the noses of five villagers in a remote area of Jammu, according to police in Indian-administered Kashmir.
The police say the militants assumed the victims were informers for the security forces.
This was the first incident of the kind in over 13 years of secessionist violence in the state, the police say.
Militants have killed civilians in the past on suspicion of being informers for the security forces.
