One would think that the Iraqi Sunnis would be bending over backwards to make nice with the US. If not the US, who will protect them from the Shia majority? Attack the US, drive us out of Iraq, and the Sunnis are in very big trouble if there is no strong civil government dedicated to freedom and democracy in place when we leave.

Attacking the US at this time is simply not a very smart tactic.

Interesting idea.. But I think we have some other options to play before we go to such an extent..

However, I do believe that anyone entering or leaving Fallujah should be required to have CPA or Iraqi identification.

We can badge over 20 thousand people working at the Pentagon everyday controlling their access and knowing their entry/exit activities.

Don't know why we can't do the same in Fallujah.
