After Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, and Bahrain, the Arab Spring has arrived in Baghdad. The Iraqi youth has taken to the streets to voice its anger against corruption, unemployment and the lack of personal freedom in an Iraq that is in the grip of religious parties.

Tahrir Square, baptised "Freedom Square" has been transformed into a forum for 2 months. People are opening up and speaking freely at an improptu court in the blogs and pages that are mushrooming on the social networks. A new nation - that of the Iraqi youth - has formed in the virtual world of Internet. A new nation that wrote the first pages of its real-life history on Tahrir Square in Baghdad, and on Azadi Square in Sulaimaniyah. A seed of freedom has been sown.
