re: don't think the UN gets it. An offensive in Fallujah at the moment would not divide Fallujah, it would be designed to eliminate (i.e., kill) all the resistance in Fallujah, leaving a pacified, "shocked and awed" population. Its the scorched earth approach. Unfortunately, its the best option at the moment. Insurgents lose, iterim Iraqi government wins. Sounds a lot like Saddam Hussein's thought process. Reminds me of the Who song "Meet the new boss... same as the old boss". These type of attacks, that kill many civilians, women, old folks, kids, create as many or more insurgents than they kill. Not just in Fallujah, but across the whole country. What if it was your family being "shocked and awed" by a foreign countries "scorched earth" approach? How would you react? John
