This is a very strange story. The relative casualties - seven coalition dead, 300 insurgents dead, suggests that a massacre took place. In the Irish Times it is stated that the Iraqi government originally claimed that the dead were Sunnis. I haven't managed to find an independent assessment of this story. If anyone can find one then please post a link here. pat c read full story / add a comment

They described people "living in a cage", cut off by land, sea and air, with no reliable power and little water and tortured by hunger and disease and incessant attacks by Israeli troops and planes. read full story / add a comment
