US General Tommy Franks confirmed today that a Apache Helicopter gunship had been shot down by Iraqi farmers.
But, as he told assembled reporters at the Operation Mushroom breifing centre in Qatar:
"You have to remember these were Iraqi Republican Farmers!
They grow the food for the elite Republican Guards and so are tougher than the normal Iraqi peasant."
