Is this story the latest or the same story from last week? If it's last week's story, I heard it was a false report. Hmmm?

Fred Francis reporting live as I type this from Iraq's Northern Front.

That is how Timesink started this thread.

He was reporting live, and said he was reporting based on direct interviews with defecters. Of course, it's always your own call whether to trust the press or not, but I personally have never considered Fred Francis to be unreliable or overtly biased.

Last week it was only reported in the Mirror. I think NBC News is more credible.

Last weeks story was about British troops in the south, at the Kuwait/Iraq border. It was probably true.

This latest report is from the north. It is probably true as well.

No. As he said, this is a "real time" report. And this is to the north, not the south, where the story was from last week (at the Kuwaiti border).
