Lenin's Tomb has a very good discussion of this; see also the comments thread. Chabert links to some newsworthy first-hand reports from Iraq.

These reports - which include brave eyewitness accounts of activity by US personnel at the mosque all night - naturally remain unmentioned by the BBC, which reports, with a straight face, that the US, Britain and Australia will be very sad about having to stay a little longer in the world's second most oil-rich country.

That "chaos", eh? Just keeps on coming.
