Before my house was destroyed by Hurricane Ivan, I could sit on my back porch and watch the AC-130's circling over Eglin AFB, firing their cannon at the bombing range within a few miles of where I sat. On a clear evening, you could see the muzzle flash each time a 105mm round was fired.
The power of the American military is an awesome spectacle to behold. Those bastards in Fallujah are getting what they deserve.

Lucky! During my time in the Navy we occasionally got to go do observation out at the range in Fallon NV. we would watch the F-18's and A-6's do there bombing and gun runs... what a beautiful sight it was... I can only imagine that some of weapons we test there are falling in Fallujah today...
There is nothing better the watching the blast and feeling the ground shake from a 1000lb JDAM bomb on target. :)
