Everyone needs to realize that what is going on now (AC-130's, helicopter attacks) has been going on for weeks. The difference is, there are now media cameras to record it. While many folks on FR have been whining about our lack of resolve in Fallujah, our military has been very effectively eliminating the bad guys. No, we haven't dropped a MOAB. But we haven't needed to. The AC-130 video you saw yesterday has been happening almost every day. And each time it happens, a lot of bad guys find out that whole virgin thing was a hoax. In all likelihood, there will be no dramatic, building crushing offensive in Fallujah. There won't need to be. The enemy in that city is proving much easier to kill just the way we're doing it.

I thought the recorded laughter and challenge to come out and fight was classic. Note to terrorists: you just fell for the oldest trick in the book!

in all likelihood, there will be no dramatic, building crushing offensive in Fallujah no, not with the all-star mullah negociating team, the UN special envoy, and CNN all working feverishly to rescue the poor dears trapped by the USMC.
To: Dog
the terrorists are using women and children as human shields.. Well, it had to happen sooner or later...

Wow, watching a Marine sniper now. I want to throw a big wall of protection around him. Bless you, young man, whoever you are.

I have to laugh when I hear you say 'all out offensive'. We've been playing 'patty-cake' with these guys. We haven't begun military action. the world will know when we do.

LA Times embedded reporter is being somewhat objective about the situation. He mentioned the enemy using women and children as human shields.

Those Marine pilots are having a party over Fallujah. Down low, sweeping over the target. Gotta be a rush...

Amen and thanks for your reassurances. I do have a question though...how do you know this has been going on as you say???? Perchance you have some inside info, maybe on location, or are you going by educated guess???
Either way, thanks.

Those mosques certainly have a lively atmosphere.

Southern??? I thought all the fighting was on the northern side of Falujah?
