Great post! Thanks for giving us such an inside view of a diplomat's life in Iraq. Keep the stories coming. You're my favorite DipNote blogger.

p.s. I recently found your personal blog, and I love the photo sections! Especially the shots of all the sweet Iraqi kids, and the album for this story, "Beefing up our Diplomacy" :). But why no recent photo albums?]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/working_with_iraqi_farmers/ Thu May 21, 2009

I am so happy to see another interesting blog posting from Mr. Snipe including more stories about working with animals. The Iraqi animal kingdom needs more animal-friendly people like you, sir. Merci beaucoup!]]> http://blogs.state.gov/index.php/entires/working_with_iraqi_farmers/ Thu May 21, 2009
Hi Ya, Aaron

It's good to hear from you again. I think this (BAI) program will make a big difference in the lives of the farming community. I know bulls will only mate with the same cow once. Then the farmer needs to find a new bull for his herd. So this is a great program that you have started.

I also liked your camp story ,and the photo of you with the cows :) .
