Debka is on par with the Weekly World News.
The cease fire is old news, and lasted only until the USMC was fired upon. About 90 minutes.
Currently, as we type, the USMC is kicking the sh*t out of a bunch of idiots that need killing.

Now is not a good time to be an enemy of the USMC.

I think this is new news after today..the time is dated 2-3 hours ago

[Spruce]

Analyze the value of data provided by DEBKA and you will understand why I find them dubious, if not plain fools.

The USMC was deployed to Falujah months ago. For a reason. The bad-guys are tasting the USMC and are crying mercy via their propaganda wings.

Now is not the time for us at home to go wobbly.

Massive civilian losses and not a singe combatant lost.

[thoughtomator]

This should be listed under "wild rumors"

[Guillermo]

10,000 Iraqis are not worth the life of one US Marine or Soldier.

[WOSG]

Phew, it's debka.

[dimk]

Arabs up for their old trick, crying when they are getting their asses kicked(remember 1968 or 1973?) Only now there is nobody to step in and impose the "ceasefire". It is time to pay!

[GeronL]

what is this massive casualties nonsense??

The whole idea of putting Debka in the subject line is so people who don't care for it won't read it (and comment!).

See Debka? Move on and leave those of us who know better free from the same mindless comments over and over and over and over again.

Posting a comment to me and then multiple recipients is lame. Weak.

[thoughtomator]

Ah, but sometimes Debka is right. I evaluate each story on its own merits. This particular article is in fact a list of wild rumors.

[tubavil]

Hmmmmmm. Ignore the point and attack the man....

Seriously, The poster has done his part, how about honoring the unwritten rule (unwritten rules, which you seem to be aware of by posting another example).

;-)

Ciao.

Actually, I think the Marines were rotated into Fallujah recently. It was in the Army's hands before that.

[Spruce]

With all due respect. I don't understand how you would see my posts as attacks. If you think my commments are offensive that's your deal.

I wish I was a bit more eloquent. What I meant to say was very simple. And you can quote me. "The USMC is, in every way, beating the ever-loving sh*t out of these jihadist pricks. I do believe the jihadis will remember the USMC in a most different manner from now on. And You can rest assured that for every Marine hit, there are 50-60 enemy dead. May God bless the USMC."


Debka is crap!
