Early today, U.S. troops surrounded the area of Fallouja General Hospital, just outside the city on the western bank of the Euphrates River. Iraqi forces swept into the facility, blasting open doors and handcuffing patients, who were pulled into the halls in a search for gunmen. [handcuffing patients while searching for gunmen - yeah that makes sense] At the hospital, four foreigners, including two Moroccans and two unidentified people, were captured, the U.S. military said. [Damn - that capture ratio could have gone way up if we just captured more patients. Why didn't we capture all the patients?] One main goal for taking the hospital first was likely to control information. The facility was the main source of Iraqi death tolls during the first U.S. siege of Fallouja in April, and U.S. commanders accused doctors there of exaggerating numbers, fueling public outrage that eventually forced the Marines to pull back from the city at that time. [Those reporting death tolls will be shot on sight]
