Insurgents consider Iraqi journalists to be spies for the government or the US occupation, writes former Post war correspondent Bassam Sebti. "Working for an Iraqi news agency is dangerous enough, but working for a U.S. media outlet puts you in double jeopardy. In the killers' eyes, we are collaborators with the infidels. ...Each day that I worked for the Post involved attempts to prevent my own killing."
