Sung to the tune of "I'm a Loser" by the Beatles.

In Fallujah.
In Fallujah.
And there's Bradleys to the rear of me.

Of all the wars we have won and have lost
There is one foe we should never have crossed.
We have a chance in a million, my friend,
I should have known we would lose in the end.

In Fallujah,
And there's Marines to the rear, I see,
In Fallujah,
and the snipers put the fear in me

Although I sneer and say "allah akhbar!",
Beneath this dirt I am covered with scars.
Our men are falling like rain from the sky
Is it for Saddam or Osama we die?

In Fallujah,
And I've lost some men who're near to me,
In Fallujah
And a Cobra just appeared to me.

What have we done to deserve such a fate,
Allah, our god, I had thought you were great,
And so it's true, don't take on the Marines,
I'm telling you, they are killing machines.

In Fallujah,
And I lost my life so dear to me,
In Fallujah,
And now Satan has appeared to me.

Lyrics

As other reports have established, those still resisting in Fallujah are looking to die.

Semper Fi.

“When the people of Fallujah come back and see their houses, they will kick out any terrorists. This will be an example to all Iraqi cities,” the Kurdish officer said.

This is what should have been done last April.

"As US troops sweep through the houses, they are unearthing the insurgents’ horrifying secrets — more akin to the handiwork of psychotic serial killers than guerrillas or even terrorists — that have shocked the world. . . "

"As the guerrillas run their last sprint from death, sympathy for their cause among Iraqis is rapidly running out".

If true that would be the best news of all. If the Iraqi people rise up against the thugs then we've won.

Someone had a very special hatred for this womam, who ever she is:

"In the south of Fallujah yesterday, US Marines found the armless, legless body of a blonde woman, her throat slashed and her entrails cut out. Benjamin Finnell, a hospital apprentice with the US Navy Corps, said that she had been dead for a while, but at that location for only a day or two. The woman was wearing a blue dress and her face had been disfigured. It was unclear last night if the grisly remains were the body of the Irish-born aid worker Margaret Hassan, 59, or of Teresa Borcz, 54, a Pole abducted two weeks ago. Both were married to Iraqis and held Iraqi citizenship; both were kidnapped in Baghdad last month."

Why don't they show the debody of that woman that was cut up in Falluja? "US Marines found the armless, legless body of a blonde woman, her throat slashed and her entrails cut out. Benjamin Finnell, a hospital apprentice with the US Navy Corps, said that she had been dead for a while, but at that location for only a day or two.

He shot the man in the stomach: he fell, but kept crawling, so Sergeant Veen shot him again in the shoulder. Still the man tried to move away, so the sergeant blasted him with his 50-calibre machinegun.

If the first shot was in the stomach, I guess there's no doubt he died in excrutiating pain...

I love it that we have unmanned spy planes.

I love it that the soldier named his rifle "Lucille."

I hope Lt. Fares Ahmed Hassan is right: "When the people of Fallujah come back and see their houses, they will kick out any terrorists. This will be an example to all Iraqi cities,” the Kurdish officer said."

Ghastly, what they did to the woman. It's not difficult to comprehend Sgt. Veen's remark, “There’s pretty much no feeling ... ", when facing such evil.

There will be wailing in the MSM and in Europe about our merciless troops.

History tells us that in the 8th century, Timur-i-leng, known to the West as Tammerlane, conquered Baghdad and built a pyramid of skulls from the 750,000 people he slaughtered to, as the French say, "pour encourager les autres."

Now, there's merciless.

He just summed up this war better than most pundits who get paid for their words.
