One of the Belgian journalists in Kuwait crossed the border with a filmcrew today. They interviewed a doctor in the hospital of Umm Qsar. Being asked if the people where glad to be liberated from SH, he answered yes. Being asked what they think about the US and UK military he was less enthusiast. According to him several civilians were shot because they were suspected Iraqi soldiers in civilian cloths. Also UK and US military did nothing to help the wounded afterwards he mentioned. And this made the population quite angry on the military.

The journalist also asked him what he thought would happen when SH would be gone. The doctor answered the people would turn against the US and UK army if those stayed one minute longer than the fall of the regime...

This is the south where SH was not very popular. Spells trouble.
