As a new feature, I am introducing the daily digests of the Iraqcrisis e-mailing list. I start with manually posting two at once because the last one refers to the previous one. If I can work out the kinks, they will be posted automatically to the blog from now on. Iraqcrisis is run by the University of Chicago's Oriental Institute, more in specific by our good friend Chuck Jones. The list web site states it is a "moderated list on cultural property damaged, destroyed or lost from libraries and museums in Iraq during and after the Iraq War." I would say the War never really ended but I guess that's a discussion for another day... One final thing: e-mail attachments are not included in these digests nor are they archived on the Iraqcrisis web site. For those you need to be a subscriber, I'm afraid.

Many will know of the role the Iraqi Association of University Lecturers has played in publicizing
the dangers faced by academics in Iraq.
A couple of days ago I was sent the attached press release about an attack on the headquarters of
the AUL on October 9 by coalition forces and Iraqi Police.
On Monday, Issam al-Rawi, head of the AUL was murdered as he left his home:
