it was a political decision to "hold".....( and give peace a chance moment)..
supposedly a bunch of clerics are on the way to negotiate an end to "hostilities" at fallujah tomorrow...(basically)
an effort to see what's left....
..as far as using women and children as shields..it is nothing new. The Arab's will do that, Al jarzeeeah will report it and civilized nations will cringe but they will always use it....because they know "soft" spots and will use them. (politically). No one condemns them and even if they did,they wouldn't stop.
So we'll see if the clerics can do anything "nice" tomorrow
..(reminds me of the cease fire that let OBL escape the mountains in Afghanistan)..

women and kids as "shields",,I cannot imagine an American man doing that {other than John Kerry and Bill Clinton}

The same clerics calling the terrorists to take up arms against the infidel invaders.

We still have no idea if he was ever there to begin with. I doubt it.
