Google maps

I find it slightly peculiar that sections of Baghdad are unavailable for viewing at higher resolutions and the map mode has no roads, town names or names on any other geographical features.

You have to go to Turkey before they start putting labels on things.

You can look at the refinery in high res mode, you can look at Baghdad suburbs and the government buildings bits, but you can't look at the market areas in high res.

Fallujah - forget it. It's like looking at a jigsaw puzzle with two thirds of the pieces missing.

Coincidence?
