Sounds like the Marines have won over one reporter.

Great narrative.

Increase the size of the bombs to 1000 lbs. It will work better.

WOW Our troops rule! How can they show so much restraint is beyond me.
As I read the part about the enemy chants,for some reason the chant from the sixties anti-war movement,.. "all the world is watching" as I think to myself: this is it,this is the battle against the terrorists, physically as well as symbolically.
Even though winning battles by our side seem to be suppressed in the main stream media. The beady little eyes and ears of the evildoers will be watching.
God bless our troops, they must win, they will win !

My sincere thank you to our soldiers

Such a good story I read it again.
I still want revenge for Black Hawk Down, among other things

It seems an all-out assault on Fallujah is not far off.

From the above article:

Marine officials earlier this week gave Iraqi leaders until Friday to get insurgents to turn in their heavy weapons and turn over those who killed and mutilated four American security contractors on March 31.

From the NY Times:

"The top Marine Corps general in Iraq said an American attack against insurgents in Falluja was "inevitable" within days unless the militants there immediately surrendered their heavy weapons and ammunition, as called for in the agreement. Soldiers in Falluja said that demand was complied with only half-heartedly: A pickup truck was delivered only partly full of weapons that were largely rusty and unserviceable.

"This is an insult," one of the soldiers at the weapons delivery said."

It certainly seems like this weekend is the time to watch.

Actually more smaller bombs would probably work better and cause destruction over a wider area, if you can lay down the proper pattern.

It's hard to believe we still use little bombs
when one "BIG" one would do just find in Fallujah.

We should announce this - then drop a MOAB. And another one, and another one until there was peace and quiet in Fallujah.
