Falluja
 

U.S. and Iraqi forces have gained more ground in Falluja, and now control 80 percent of a largely abandoned city still populated by elusive pockets of hard-core insurgent holdouts, a top Marine has said.


So far, 22 "coalition warriors" have died, a reference Sattler made to U.S. troops. Iraqi officials said five Iraqi forces have died.

About 170 troops have been wounded, and 40 of them returned to the battlefield. Sattler said about 600 insurgents have been killed.


Sattler said 300 people have surrendered at a mosque, believed to be a combination of civilians and insurgents.

kill them all :ak47:


:ak47:

christ, what a fucking mess this is.

can you say Bush..

I hate that man so much.

meanwhile attacks are increasing in places like Mosul and Tikrit, likewise can't kill insurgency by escalating the conditions that caused it in the first place.

Iraqi forces

:1orglaugh

The Terror will go on ...:(

This war will never end until the Americans eventually leave with their tail between their legs.

there is option two of killing every man, woman, and child. i think i know which one Fuhrer Bush will favor.

American forces have never had a problem with murdering civilians, from babies to the elderly.

I suppose it's kind of a "stick to what you know" mentality for the bush camp.

Exactly.

My cousin is there right now. :(


Has a baby girl at home in the states.

:(

after Bush gets his new cabinet in place the draft should start.

Will be no draft unless Bush wants to take on Iran

Bloody Hell. It's one of these "stupid people complaining about things of which they know nothing" threads again.

in 10 years history books will say vietnam was a joke against iraq :2 cents:

Don't worry about Bush attacking Iran. With his incompetence he can't even deal with a poorly equipped Iraq!

I swear theking has a bot to repost every piece of news that hits cnn.

I wouldn't want to be down there.
And then americans voted the misery for 4 years again.. I can't belive it......

Wonder how much notice we'll give to the insurgents to leave before shooting up those cities. If only a few hundred are killed per city surviving citizens are going to be left with rubble.

I bet most of the bigtime terrorist leaders where long out of Falluja before the attacks started. Didn't they drop notices 24 hours before the attack? :1orglaugh

i can sense the tension there, its like watching "Blackhawk Down" :thumbsup :thumbsup

go men, smoke them ALL :BangBang: :ak47:
