900 Evacuees Revisit Fallujah Briefly; City "Not Fit For Animals"
Dec 24, 2004
Source: Agencies

There was anger, frustration and resentment among Iraqis who returned to Fallujah on Friday only to discover their homes in rubble and their livelihoods ruined following a U.S. offensive.

"I saw the city and al-Andalus destroyed," said Ali Mahmood, 35, referring to the district of the city he returned to briefly on Thursday but now plans to leave after seeing the destruction.

"My house is completely destroyed. There is nothing left for me to stay for," the teacher said, adding that he would rather live in the tented camp outside Falluja that has been his family's home for the past two months.

Conservative estimates say several hundred buildings were partly or completely destroyed by the U.S. assault, which began on Nov. 8 and involved bombardment by U.S. planes, tanks and artillery.
