Firefight in Fallujah - US soldiers run for their lives -Fallujah Rejoices (MERGED)

Election is over, get ready for Fallujah II. The withdrawkl from Fallujah was the result of political pressure during an election year, not military defeat.

Women and children have largely evacuated Fallujah, and nightly strikes have been softening up the insurgents. British troops are in an blocking position, and starting to patrol. Allawi will give a 24 hour warning, and in no more than 72 hours from now, the fight will be on....

Three UK soldiers killed in Iraq](BBC NEWS | UK | Suicide attack kills UK soldiers)

British troops were controversially redeployed to Camp Dogwood
Three British troops have been killed in Iraq, the Armed Forces Minister Adam Ingram has confirmed.
The deaths, as well as a number of other casualties, happened in the area patrolled by the Black Watch, but no more details have yet been released.

The 850-strong force have been attacked repeatedly since arriving at Camp Dogwood on Friday.

The troops were controversially redeployed to the base, 20 miles from Baghdad, following a US request.

Critics suggested the redeployment dragged Britain deeper into the turmoil of post-war Iraq and was part of political manoeuvring by the American government during their campaign for re-election.

Under attack

Since British Black Watch troops arrived in the area they have come under attack.

One mortar exploded at the Camp Dogwood complex early on Tuesday evening. Five other “impacts” which did not explode were also reported.

On Tuesday, Defence Secretary Geoff Hoon said he was “confident” Black Watch would be back in their base in southern Iraq within 30 days.

The battle group were sent to patrol new territory along the eastern bank of the River Euphrates in terrain that was not previously in their area of operations.

They expanded their operations in an attempt to stop rebels reaching Falluja.

On Thursday, troops were building a pontoon bridge across the river.

The group redeployed comprised three companies of armoured infantry from the 1st Battalion The Black Watch, with some 500 men and 50 Warrior armoured fighting vehicles.

They are supported by a reconnaissance unit from the largely-Welsh Queen’s Dragoon Guards, with around 100 men and 12 Scimitar armoured vehicles, and a 50-strong Royal Marine light infantry unit from 40 Commando.

The Black Watch, which traditionally recruits from Perthshire, Angus and Fife, is based in Warminster, Wiltshire.

This morning the British TV showed injured children and women in Falujjah hospital, one child aorund 7 years of age had one leg blown off. Welcome to Bush's second term.

Women and children for the most part have evacuated to camps outside the city. Funny how there is NEVER a report of a fighter being killed in Fallujah. Very odd eh?

You're right, the American propoganda machine needs to get its act together. Like you said, election is over, back to play time.

Sun Tzu says in the Art of War

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

:kaboom: :2guns: :rocket:

ARAB MEDIA DEPART FALLUJAH; INTIMIDATION CITED

BAGHDAD, IRAQ – Quds Arab-language news wire service in recent days has reported that four Arab-language media outlets have been forced from the city of Fallujah by Anti-Iraqi Forces.

According to Quds, Al-Arabiya, Middle East Broadcasting Company, Lebanese Broadcasting Company and Al-Iraqiyah television were forced from Fallujah by Anti-Iraqi Forces because they were accused of providing biased coverage to Coalition forces by refusing to air insurgent stock footage of alleged civilian casualties. In discussions with Coalition officials, reporters from both Al Arabiya and MBC acknowledged threats to correspondents and indicated that some correspondents had withdrawn from Fallujah for their own safety and were reporting via phone from outside the city.

Yep the Bush Admin is known for its flawless intelligence and accurate reporting :hehe:

Well, check it out with the "arab Media", they never lie!

As a man, you are a COMPLETE idiot if you do not evacuate your family. At this point they are simply propaganda fodder.

"As the battle looms, Fallujah already resembles a ghost town, according to residents who have fled the city and other eyewitnesses. About 80 percent of Fallujah’s estimated 250,000 residents already have fled, they say, moving in with relatives in Baghdad and elsewhere in Iraq.

“There are no families,” said a Fallujah-based Iraqi journalist who reports for Western and Arab media. "There are hooded men walking around the streets. They’ve set some checkpoints around the streets.‘’

Let me emphasize on this :

Can you give me a very logic answer on why a sniper would ever shoot on INNOCENT ppl (Civilians) besides he had one job to do, scare the **** out of them and make them leave their home town!
Getting me?!

My two logical $s
Snipers are usually hidden, thus an ordinary citizen cannot tell whether they are US snipers or Iraqi insurgents (not iraqi insurgent snipers) stray bullets.
