#1 The Pentagon also acknowledged yesterday that the price of taking Fallujah was higher than previously reported, as the death toll for Americans in the city was raised from 51 to 71

Don't ya love the way they try to make it sound like a cover-up or conspiracy? No doubt this is because some of them are first wounded, taken to a hospital and sadly, don't make it.

MSM reporters: Ignorant or on the other side. Take your pick.

#2 Fighting continues in the ruined city, as insurgents who stayed behind or have slipped back into Fallujah are attacking U.S. troops trying to rebuild the city.

Not a problem. When insurgents are found, kill them.

#3 2b,

Don't you also love the way the reporting whips from "This is going to be the next Stalingrad!" to "What? Why so many casualties? You didn't tell us people were going to get killed!"

#5 The attack on Fallujah was done with great planning, speed, and execution. Now the mop-up will take time. Take a look at the sat images and see the sheer quantity of buildings. But just another job for the systematic US Marines and Army troop. Hats of to you and the tremendous job you have done eliminating this rat's nest.

#6 Some suicide bombers who battled U.S. troops in Fallujah were doped up on heroin and speed

Sorta gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "blow your mind," don't it?

#8 You sure 2b? I thought his head flew out of the car then was blown to bits by a landmine.
