This boa, the American columns, are being besieged between Basra and other towns north, west, south and west of Basraโฆ Now even the American command is under siege. We are hitting it from the north, east, south and west. We chase them here and they chase us there. But at the end we are the people who are laying siege to them. And it is not them who are besieging us.
