We were sitting in the Den of our Villa (HQ) in the Green Zone watching CNN as Isreal was shooting into Lebanon. Just as the 105's shot on television 2 Katyusa roackets hit 40 yards from the front of the house. We were on our bellies in an instant. A thrid hit about a 1/4 mile up the road from us. We got up grabbed our weapons and ran outside to look around. One little guy was killed and another injured very badly. Little water truck drivers. We think they were aiming for the Iraqi Minsiter of Defense who lives 2 houses up from us? The shock wave broke a couple of windows and blew open and broke all the doors.
