According to sources I have read- and please, feel free to weigh in with others- it could take months or years before the Iraqi police would be able to go in to Falluja (according to an article I just read this morning). Since the US pullout it has become a terrorist haven, and the US is not anxious to go back in for fear of setting off the entire population. Now if you think there is a short term solution, and have read different sources, I would love to read them.

So yes, Falluja could a long term terrorist haven make- and Falluja isn't the only city that presents that sort of problem.
