Al-Qaida in Iraq has pledged to take back the volatile western city of Fallujah, declaring that it has united local armed factions into a cohesive force to fight the US and Iraqi troops who now control its streets.

In Fallujah, police said they were taking the al-Qaida warning seriously. It followed the recent killings of several religious and tribal leaders whom insurgents had accused of collaborating with US forces and the Iraqi Government.

The printed statement posted around Fallujah vowed that “your brothers in the al-Qaida organisation” would restore the city to the “glory and dignity” it enjoyed before the US offensive.

Capt. Rasheed Hamid, of Fallujah police, said armed groups had made similar threats in the past but this one carried “dangerous significance” because of the recent murders.

Misdirection???

We should just move all the women, kids and old folks out of Fallujah. With no skirts and diapers to hide behind, the courageous Jihadis would have no firing positions and thus could not attack....anyone!

You left out the most important part

Resident Maisam Monthir, 32, said: “I don’t care because there are now more than 5000 American and Iraqi soldiers. I consider the al-Qaida threat to be nonsense. Fallujah cannot be a captive again in their hands as it used to be.”

Hey Al Qaida! We got your volatile city of Fallujah.

[I see my hands]

Tell them: Cool, you can have it. Then when they go there kill them.

[SandRat]

They can't take back what no longer exists.

[AmeriBrit]

What is it about Fallujah that makes them so intent on taking it back? Is there perhaps something Saddam had buried they want to get their hands on?

[A CA Guy]

Remove the people of Fallujah and leave it open for the terrorist after you leave some drums of very radioactive material.

Should be a win win IMO.

It is near - or on- some WMD sites. One's a chemical facility / nerve gas site.

Satellite pix show that three chemical facilities in Iraq - Fullujah I, II and III - wrecked in the 1991 Gulf War are back in business.

From reading and listening to the Left Media you would never know that we took Fallujah. Yes we attacked but right away the Left Media pushed stories that the Terrorists were back.

We only hear about success when the Terrorists slip up and inform us about it, otherwise you would think we are the ones losing everywhere.

You'll get Fallujah back when Hell freezes over, al Qaeda.

Perhaps even more important to them is this:

Fallujah's Al Muthanna plant produced HMX and RDX explosives

Dear AQ,

They want a do over?

There's no do overs in war. We won, you lost.

restore the city to the “glory and dignity” it enjoyed before the US offensive.

Ah yes, the "glory and dignity" of life under Al Qaida's boot, complete with burqa'd women, torture houses, and beheadings for the non-compliant.
