The men (only one former SEAL) killed in Fallujah weren't killed by a lightly armed mob. They were killed in a well organized ambush. Their corpses were burned and trashed by an organized mob after the armed ambushers were long gone. Even if our troops had arrived just minutes after the intial hit, they would have found no military targets.
If you need pictures of charred American corpses in Fallujah to get pissed off at these people, you're showing up late to the party and standing at the end of a long line to get in. If you think rage driven revenge is our best response, the best place for you is at the end of that long line.

You're right - it is a very LOOOOONG line waiting to level Fallujah.

What response in Fallujah (and Iraq) is in order here?

Does Fallujah change anything at all?

Well organized ambush? Right in town? In broad daylight? If it was organized, why didn't any friendlys warn them before the arrived at the ambush point?

Their corpses were burned and trashed by an organized mob after the armed ambushers were long gone.

So the mob was organized too? Where those little kids that were beating on the dead American's part of this organized mob?

Even if our troops had arrived just minutes after the intial hit, they would have found no military targets.

What, are we waiting for that *organized* mob of fanatics to become stronger, so one day we can consider them a military target?
