NEAR FALLUJAH, Iraq - More than 4,000 U.S. Marines and Army troops punched their way into northeastern Fallujah on Monday, kicking off a massive assault dubbed Operation Phantom Fury that seeks to put an end to half a year of insurgent control of the Sunni Muslim city.
The prelude to the assault on the Askari neighborhood was a crushing air and artillery bombardment of the city that rose to a crescendo by Monday evening, with U.S. strike jets dropping bombs around the clock and big guns pounding the city every few minutes with high-explosive shells.
Meanwhile, insurgents in Baghdad and nearby Ramadi tried to keep up the pressure on the coalition forces with new attacks, including one on a Catholic church in the capital.
Earlier Monday U.S. troops had fought their way into the city's western outskirts, seizing two bridges over the Euphrates River and helping Iraqi soldiers take the city's main hospital in the first stage of a major assault on the insurgent stronghold.

Yeah, that crossed my mind too. Was just keeping him straight.
I can hear the Arab press now: "Look how Americans dress up as Crusaders as they kill women and children in defenseless Fallujah"
All of our local stations here in Toledo are showing only SOAP OPERAS not the battle. We get local Fox Tv here and they are not showing it either. Have no satellite at work here. AAARRRGHHHH! I'm mad. God forbid someone would miss a day of "The Young and The Restless". Idiots !!!
Prayers up for our brave men and women in the military.

Hundreds of thousands of dispondent Kerry-ites want to move overseas, right?
Many of them are of the disposition of the famous "Iraqi human shields", right?,
The "insurgents" (enemy) needs reinforcements, right?
Why not drop the whole lot of them off by helicopter at the corner of 12th Avenue and Saddam Blvd. down there in F-town and let them make a run for it to 'friendly forces' side. This would be a good time to do it.
Well Tonk they not only have access to this site, but to the whole wide Gore invented internet.
Well, what are you waiting for? Pack up your laptop and get going!
Dedicated to our brave men in Iraq today.
Our guys are using smoke bombs, launched from mortars, to smoke the streets. Our night vision sees right through this stuff.
You are quite right. The bad guys are still fighting 12th century battles without realizing they've taken on a 21st century foe.
I've always said, you don't invite the man who wears the biggest damned cowboy boots on the planet to an ass-kicking contest...and hope to win.
