do you know is there any commentary in the Arab media about Iraqi soldiers using hospitals and civilians a cover

I did see the story of a raid in a hospital leading to the capture of some hundred Iraqi soldiers. Why?

any commentary on the white flag strategy Iraqi soldiers are employing, you know the one, where they pretend to surrender

Yes, I saw that one as well. What is your point?

In case you think that is a shocking strategy, I refer you to Sun Tzu - "All war is deception".

There was a post here yesterday that gave the example of a similar strategy employed by Americans against the British. Maybe its author would like to remind you of it, to show you that such strategies are not unusual.
