What is truely astounding is the number of people wounded that are surviving. There are hundereds of wounded soldiers from this Fullujah Campaign and only 25 deaths.
Another encouraging thing from the battle of Fallujah is that our troops are now authorized to assault any mosque from which enemy troops are firing. And we are doing so on a regular basis.

Here Guerilla’s Paradise, among other places. Here’s an excerpt:
Another risky part of the American tactics – although in this scenario the risk is cultural and political – is the military’s willingness to fire on mosques if insurgents fire from them first. No matter the justification of such tactics under international law, images or reports of U.S. soldiers firing on mosques does not play well in Iraq, the Muslim world at large or in many non-Muslim countries around the world, where anti-war feeling is high.
That’s a price the commanders are prepared to pay if it means allowing their soldiers to defend themselves fully.
At one stage on Friday morning, insurgents fired at Apache 14 from a mosque. Under the military’s rules of engagement, American soldiers are permitted to fire on any of Fallujah’s 77 mosques if insurgents shoot from them first.
“They brought this ---- to themselves,” Rainey said in the afternoon, visibly upset by casualties his battalion had just sustained. “Every mosque we found weapons inside. They’re the ones who don’t respect Islam, not us.”
I cannot believe what I am hearing, you sad vvankers.
I would like to see your yellow f*ckin ass in Fallujah.
People are dying… It is not a f*cking game !!!
You are obvoiously just a stupid little boy who knows, or could never comprehend the horrors of war. Go get a life asshole !!!
Perhaps you could point out where anyone said this war was a game? Or perhaps not.
