FOX: The resistance has so far been moderate.....the terrorists had a thinline on the outskirts of the city.....and seems to be falling back into the city center.

It all seems to be working like a clockwork. Eventually they'll get into a buffalo herd, and you know how easy that was for Buffalo Bill and his boys. I sure hope they give up, at that point.

When they get them pushed into a box in the middle of the city, some more airpower might be called for.

Summary: a Look at terrorists in Fallujah

By The Associated Press

_ WHO ARE THEY?: The bulk of the defenders are believed to be Sunni Muslims from the Fallujah area, but they also include an unknown number of militants from other countries, including followers of Jordan terror mastermind Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. It's unclear whether al-Zarqawi is still in the city; Sunni clerics insist he never was. His followers have been blamed for deadly bombings and the slayings of foreign hostages.

_ HOW MANY?: Commanders estimate about 3,000 insurgents are dug in their positions in Fallujah, 40 miles west of Baghdad. The vast majority of the civilian population of some 300,000 is believed to have fled, the U.S. military said.

_ WHERE ARE THEY?: Insurgent defenses are believed strongest in the Jolan neighborhood, a poor district in the heart of Fallujah. Sunni guerrillas also control other cities north and west of Baghdad. They are distinct from the Shiite Muslim followers of firebrand cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, who launched an uprising throughout southern Iraq (news - web sites) and parts of Baghdad earlier this year.

Jolan district is where most of the slimeballs are located.
