The Command Post - Iraq - Missiles found in W. Iraq

Missiles found in W. Iraq

IDF radio headline says "Scuds", but the report itself quotes Vincent Brooks as saying that most of the missiles are short-range al-Samud. He is also quoted as saying that the movement of the Iraqi forces in the West are blocked.

Hmmm.

"Most" is not the same thing as "All".

Does anybody have an English link to that story? My knowledge of arabic is virtually not existent.

Obviously so, since the link was to a Hebrew site.
