FALLUJAH, Iraq - U.S. troops battled Iraqi guerrillas Tuesday on the edges of Fallujah, which hundreds of Marines and Iraqi troops have surrounded in a major operation to pacify one of Iraq (news - web sites)'s most violent cities. The military reported four Marines killed in the area.


Why do I feel like the last year has been a long pause in the war and now its starting up again? Not only did Rumsfeld not prepare for dealing with a post Iraq war but it seems the claims that there were not enough troops on the ground were right. It also seems the Iraqi army has had the last year to regroup and rearm............and they probably know where there are caches of arms we have not found.
