US MARINES in Fallujah are destroying a vast network of tunnels and underground bunkers used by rebels.

Warplanes have dropped four 2000lb bombs on the tunnels in a bid to kill remaining insurgents.

The blasts set off 45 minutes of explosions as underground munitions dumps were ignited.

Soldiers yesterday discovered a warren of bunkers linked by tunnels. The network had even been stocked with medical supplies.

I think I will get my son to see if he can order the entire series. He has several old TV series... Kids in the Hall, Monty Python, etc.

You just knew that they'd taken a thing or two out of the viet cong playbook when it was reported that the insurgents were popping back up in the north of the city after it had already been swept by the marines.

It was widely reported that Baghdad has an extensive tunnel network. It should be no surprise that other major cities do as well.

I'm sure that this was taken into consideration when Operation Phantom Fury was being planned.

Look at it this way, at least they are buried and won't be stinking up the streets causing disease.
