I said at the time of the Fallujah massacre that after starting to lay siege to the city, I couldn't believe we pulled back and were giving the enemy 2 weeks to regroup, resupply and reconnoiter. That was a really stoopid move on our part, IMHO.
Agreed on that! Funny thing is that all the publicity was about how the poor civilians were under siege, but no one knew that Camp Falluja wasn't getting resupplied then either. Lots of people there. Food, water and diesel ran periously low.
But we let them re arm and resupply. Go figure.
