Mortars raining down on Al Amarah

Although no stranger to 'incoming' it sounds like Abu Naji has taken a bit of a battering from a sustained mortar attack with approx 30-40 mortars fired at the camp and 4 personnel injured.

It's been quite a rough week on TELIC and it would be very satisfying to lay down a bit of AS90 loving at the source. As time rolls on, circumstances in S Iraq appear less and less conducive to our withdrawal. Will we still be there in 5 years? My money says yes - the only way to end 10000 years of tribal fighting in the Middle East is to nuke the entire region into a the biggest sheet of glass you've ever seen - but that's not PC.

Get well soon chaps!
