Guerrillas kill three Iraqis in attack on Falluja
http://www.swissinfo.org/sen/swissinfo.html?siteSect=143&sid=5731752&cKey=1114905938000

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Guerrillas fired at least seven rockets into the city of Falluja on Saturday, killing three Iraqi civilians and wounding another, the U.S. military said.

Two mortar bombs were also fired into Falluja, about 50 km (30 miles) west of Baghdad, but no caused no casualties, the military said in a statement.

Falluja was a guerrilla stronghold until a U.S.-led military offensive last November in which scores of insurgents were killed or captured.

A U.S. soldier was killed by small arms fire in the town of Khaladiyah.

I think of the poor Reservists who have been trapped over there. And, the thousands of innocent Iraqis in their uncertain world.
