Conflict in shared bedroom occupied by bewildered setters (6,5)
I believe the answer is:
desert storm
'conflict in shared' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'bedroom occupied by bewildered setters' is the wordplay.
'bedroom' becomes 'dorm' (I have seen 'Communal bedroom ' mean 'dorm' so perhaps 'bedroom' could also mean 'dorm').
'occupied by' means one lot of letters goes inside another (inserted letters occupy or enter the word).
'bewildered' is an anagram indicator.
'setters' is an anagram of 'esertst'.
'dorm' going around 'esertst' is 'DESERT STORM'.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Independent.
