"Bravo went into Falluja believing the battle would last 96 hours. It lasted five weeks." More CNN crap... I'm not aware of anyone who had the slightest hope that Fallujah would be a 96 hour battle.

I do believe the original plan was a 96 hour incursion. They spent more than that at the cemetery for crying out loud. Of course no plan survives first contact.
