"Azzaman" is a daily Iraqi newspaper. It publishes a domestic edition in
Baghdad and is distributed across Iraq, and it maintains an international edition published in English, and is also available online. A recent poll conducted by researchers atBaghdad University found that readers in southern Iraq regard Azzaman as "neutral and independent" as well as "highly objective", and that it is the most popular news source in the area. [Mustafa al-Hashemi. " [http://www.iraqupdates.com/p_articles.php/article/13941 Iraqi readers in south prefer Azzaman – survey] ." "Iraq Update". 28 January 2007] The international edition is fiercely critical of the U.S. occupation in its editorials, accusing U.S. leaders of violating "every single article of international conventions laid down to regulate the behavior of occupation troops" [Imad Allo.
