I think it is safe to say, then, that neither side is wholly honest in its reporting.

"Of course, it is still possible that some small-scale opposition to the Iraqi regime broke out in the city over the past few days, as British officers have claimed. But, seeing the tapes, it is hard to imagine that it amounted, if it existed at all, to anything more than a brief gun battle."

Which may have resulted in a basement strewn with dozens of bodies with bullet holes in their heads that won't be discovered until later. Who knows. But it is a fact, that the locals hate the Iraqi soldiers, so it's not a stretch that some might engage in action against them.
