Meanwhile the US-backed paramilitary Iraqi Civil Defence Corps urged restraint in Fallujah in a statement handed out to residents late Wednesday.

"An agreement has been negotiated with the occupation forces to lift the siege of Fallujah and to withdraw. We are hoping you will cooperate to protect Fallujah and guarantee its security," the message said.





In other words, those savages got what they wanted.

I'd shell the joint.

Not exactly. The ICDC is an Iraqi outfit; they are trying to maintain bona fides with the local Sunnis.

The Marines haven't been heard from.

Yet.

Be Seeing You,

What seige are they talking about? It may be time to initiate a real "seige" against that place. Historically, we should not let such a deed go unpunished....

"Henry returns to the English camp. The French have broken the rules of war and killed the luggage - the civilians who are not soldiers but carry the equipment. This is completely forbidden.

Henry is furious, and vows revenge on the French:

"We’ll cut the throats of those we have
And not a man of them that we shall take
Shall taste our mercy." "

"I'd shell the joint."

I'd raze the city and feed the remains to the hogs.
