The battle for Fallujah

Wretchard as usual is on top of it.

Chester has some first hand reports of the fighting and the philosophy behind it.

The Obsidian Order has some very nice links. This link from the Greenside has a letter from Dave reporting events.

This is not Kansas and this enemy does not think like that.

If we build a school or clinic, they destroy it. They would rather deny medical care or education for the children of the citizens who live nearby than to have any symbol of the West in general and America specifically among them. It is hard to comprehend. Frankly, we are done trying.
When you figure that we cannot possibly give our opponents what they want, it becomes clear that military action may be the only recourse.
