As I understand it the Brits have *NOT* entered Basra but
are surrounding the city and attempting to control access. Other reports talk of large concentrations of tanks & military vehicles in the city.
This report smacks of classic propaganda but as we all know ... Marlowe as a commentator here, hasn't even got the least ability to evaluate what he tries to consume. He reads it fleetingly - if it looks good reguritates it on us.
