Since two of Muthar's brothers and four of his cousins - all members in a family trucking cooperative - were tortured and murdered in the resistance stronghold three weeks ago, he's changed his mind about how the US handled Fallujah.

A MENSA candidate.

These people have to resort to terrorism since they can't win a free election.

"It makes me very uncomfortable to say this, but if the American's weren't around [to attack] we would be fighting among ourselves...

Nuff said.

Tom Daschle is VERY deep in his sadness now.

Fallujah is emerging as a symbol of the disparate nature of the overall insurgency inside Iraq. Many Shiites, like the Muthars, have stopped supporting it.

Fallujah emerged as that symbol quite a while ago. The fact that Shi'a supported it shows (once again, for slow learners) that Moslems can't be trusted with a burned out match.

Fallujah has become a haven for the country's tiny cohort of foreign fighters

Let them gather, and then let fall the night of the Long Knives. Leave no stone standing upon another.

Iraqi rebels dividing, losing support Fallujah is now emerging as a symbol of the splintering Iraqi resistance. The mutilation of six Shiites widens the divide.

Democrats and other traitors will blame President Bush for this. It is his fault the Iraqi terrorists are losing support.

Give the Devil enough rope, and he will hang himself. There may be hope for the Middle East after all.

How close is CSM to calling them "Freedom Fighters" ?

Yes, that the pullout being a military stroke of genius was never in doubt ... but there is still a long way to go before any conclusions can be reached as to the final outcome. I spent time over there ... these people are more complicated than what some here are suggesting. I realize that we are reading the comments of one, and based upon what my buddies have been emailing me there is no doubt that these are the sentiments of many over there - but you do not understand how unimportant all of that really is in the overall scheme of things.

Imagine putting a snake, a mongoose, a hawk and a bed of fireants all in a room together and telling them to get along. The snake wants to eat the mongoose but he knows the mongoose is too quick ... so he sides with the hawk because he knows the hawk can kill the mongoose ... but the hawk wants to kill the snake too once the mongoose it out of the way. And the ants know that the hawk is a bird that must fly ... so sooner or later they will have their shot at the hawk ... anyways - it never ends until finally only the ants will be left alive. And everyone knows you cannot get rid of the ants - everytime a chemical comes along that knocks them out the liberals come along and declare the chemical unsafe for use and they have it banned from the market.

The fireants are there to stay in that country ... it's where they were originally from in the first place. Do you know the only way to kill them? There are these flies that breed over in North Africa that light on ants and deposit their larva and those maggots eventually end up eating the heads off of the ants.

In other words - it will take generations of brainwashing over there to make a dent in their hatred for one another, not to mention us. This little thing happening in Falluja ... all it did was pit the snake against the mongoose. We're the hawk and one of them will come to us for help eventually ... but then we'll still have the fireants to content with and that my friends - is a battle we cannot fight with our military. When you see us come to that realization, when you see us finally inlisting the flies to do the dirty work ... then we will truly be winning and truly getting somewhere over there. For now we're jabbing and weaving and that's the right thing to do ... but this little thing you see going on in Falluja is nothing to get excited about. Not yet anyways. Not until we see a lot of this on a weekly or daily basis.
