I think the fallujah thing last year was addressed here, but I can't be bothered to search out the posts.
I totally object to using US action as an excuse for killing -- BARBARICALLY -- civilians who are trying to do the right thing and rebuild the country so it can be handed over to the Iraqis. I know a partner from my firm who is assisting with building a legal system in Iraq, and if you've visited the Oasis, you may have seen them.
Skunk, sorry, but in my mind you dontinue to be a mild terrorist sympathizer, which I cannot abide. While you do post the occassional interesting tidbit of information, I nevertheless take most of your posts with a grain of salt based on your sympathies.
