All roads leading to this city of 300,000 were cut off and barricaded with tanks and concertina wire.

Is LA Times one of the newspapers that won't allow full reprints here on FR? Too bad if they are because I'm not about to register with them.

May God watch over our troops on this important operation!

Unlike many on this thread, I am finding little delight in having the Marines perform this task. Personally, I wish every Arab in the ME would just go pound sand. While the lives of our citizens are worth the protection our military affords us, the Arabs have been fighting each other for centuries and will continue to do so long after we leave (if we leave).

Rooting out terrorists and their support network has been worth the cost, but trying to "rehabilitate" the Arabs is wasted time, money and energy. IMO.

I am not by nature a religious man, but today I feel the need to pray.

Dear God, be with all those who go into battle for US today. We know Lord, that some of our's must fall today. Grant comfort to those who must bear Liberty's painful price. Our men go, as American's always have, to fight the evil of this fallen world. Grant them courage and strength today, and all the dark days to come.

Amen.


Oh, those people are going to be so sorry they screwed with the Marines!

[Brad’s Gramma]

Prayers, all around. Thanks for the thread, Karl, and the ping kayak.

Two different jihadi websites are reporting Fallujah surrounded by 20,000 coalition troops and that the action has begun. No way to verify whether this report is accurate or not.
