#3 also preventing them from leaving town by car
Hmm, sounds like somebody had an attack of the smarts. I hope they are able to actualy seal off the town. Otherwise the Big Cheezes Holy men Hight value targets might be able to exfil in singletons like in Falluja.

#4 Tales of suffering: "Those fleeing are being forced to walk long distances," said a resident. "The US forces also cut off water supply in near by villages and districts like al-Ayadhiya, al-Mahalabiya and Abi Marya on Saturday."

They call these tales of suffering and they still call themselves Muslims? Whatever happened to loving death as Americans love life?

#6 The inhabitants will need to learn that they will have to make a stand and rat out the terrorists, or they will never be left alone by either side.

#7 Is this a practise run for Fallujah? Sounds like a pretty good siege technique that separates the civilians from the nutters.
