Falluja 2 AL Qa'im - WHEN DOES IT FREAKIN' END
http://www.dahrjamailiraq.com/hard_news/archives/hard_news/000244.php#more

It's becoming harder and harder to stomach the phrase "Support the Troops" unless you're talking about bringing them home.

If you aren't - you're complicent murder.

Abu Ahmed, a resident of Al-Qa'im, told IPS on telephone that ”all the fighters here are Iraqis from this area.”

He said continuing violations by U.S. soldiers had provoked people into confronting the occupying forces. He said troops had been raiding homes, sending women into the streets without their hijabs and entering areas where women sleep.

”The fighters are just local people who refuse to be treated like dogs,” he said. ”Nobody wants the Americans here.”

1. "sending women into the streets without their hijabs"
Oh grow up, other than that comment I'm one who believes that iraq will not turn to civil war because they are fighting the americans and those who work for them not each other.
