A little perspective

"It's not in Iraqi nature to be happy when someone is suffering, but I thank God for allowing them to see how we live," [Leith] Tamimi said. "I saw Americans on TV and they were enraged. If they were enraged after two days without power, how do they think we feel after four months?"

Iraqis, who have endured widespread power outages since the U.S.-led war ended in April, expressed little sympathy for the Americans who got a dose of life without lights or air conditioning - or water, for some - when a major electricity grid shut down Thursday afternoon.

Blackout.
