BAGHDAD, Iraq - U.S. jets struck Fallujah with five air raids in 12 hours, softening up the insurgent stronghold for an expected major assault. Guerrillas responded with a rocket attack Friday, killing a U.S. soldier and wounding seven others, the U.S. military said.

Iraq (news - web sites)'s interim prime minister, Ayad Allawi, warned that the "window is closing" for a peaceful settlement to avert an offensive on Fallujah, west of Baghdad. U.S. troops sealed off roads into the city overnight.

U.S. commanders said a combined U.S.-Iraqi force would carry out the attack on what is considered the insurgents' strongest bastion. Prime Minister Ayad Allawi must give the green light for the operation — part of a campaign to uproot insurgents ahead of vital elections planned for late January.

The deadly rocket attack came a day after two American Marines were killed and four others were wounded Thursday in fighting west of Baghdad.

6. the use of the term "softening up"

makes me :puke:

These people that take their orders will be suffereing PTSD by the droves and will go to their graves knowing that their souls are rotten to the core.

I am sorry that I am saying an ugly truth to those out there that have loved ones "following orders", but just be prepared for the monstrous effects of what this will do to those that come "home" to Amerika the land of the BFEE.

7. Fallujagrad

Fallujagrad

The “Real Iraqi Resistance” has already left Fallujagrad..

The only ones remaining are a few die hards that want to kill as many amerikans as possible
before they die. They have set thousands of mines and booby traps.

The war in Iraq-Nam is only starting.

It will be the WARSAW GHETTO part 2

As General Jurgen Stroop of the Marines levels the city. And exterminates the remaining
inhabitants

together with Jews that had been removed from one of the bunkers; apparently on May 8, 1943

He has another thing coming.

Yea, right.
We knew exactly what Bush was going to do if he was re-elected.
So, sit back and enjoy the ride!
