War update:

- An Iraqi suicide car bomb has killed four American soldiers near Najaf. Saddam says that suicide attacks are now going to become part of the standard Iraqi military strategy.

- According to Downing Street, Saddam has sacked his air defence commander (aka his cousin) because AA missiles are killing his own people. That market place, perhaps?

An Iraqi civilian says he doesn't believe it was a mistake (an American one, that is) because, in his words, there were no targets nearby. Sounds to me like it could have been an Iraqi friendly fire incident.

The death toll has reached 62, with 49 wounded.
