For that matter there may not have been any fighting if the force had been large enough.
You make two very good points Sir T. Many lives on both sides have been lost in Fallujah and the rest of the area. I failed to even mention any U.S. military deaths in my previous post, which I now think was a regretable oversight on my part.
