I got the idea because so many at one time. Or maybe it's because it's al-Sadr, or maybe it's because they happen to have a reporter there.
Fox's reporter in Baghdad just reported there had been a firefight in Najaf, but he sounded as if it was over. The CNN girl sounds like it's ongoing.

"(Mortar attacks are making the news now? I guess it's because it's so many at one time...)"This is part of a propaganda blitz designed to make the general public think "Bush's Vietnam" whenever they hear "Iraq".

We used to dodge mortars while walking uphill both ways to the DFAC....in knee deep dust...in 190* sun at 0630...and we were THANKFUL to do it.
PPE? That was for sissies.
