1. Jeeeeezus.

We are pulling out....no..we're bombing......we are pulling out....no..we are bombing.

[belladonna]

13. Watch, this is WHY we're pulling out

So that we can drop a MOAB or two and make the sheeple and freepers gasp in awe. :mad:

[damnraddem]

15. Get it straight!

Every time they announce that they're pulling out ... they start dropping bombs.

Why doesn't Dubya believe in condoms?
Because he always thinks we can pull out, and everything will be OK.

2. heavy gunfire, explosions and aircraft overhead

FALLUJA, Iraq (Reuters) - U.S. Marines agreed to ease their grip on Falluja on Thursday, striking a deal to entrust security to former Iraqi army officers in hope of ending a month-long siege which has cost hundreds of lives.

But new explosions as U.S. jets pounded three areas in the volatile city and sketchy details from U.S. officers and local police made it unclear whether the battle with an estimated 2,000 Sunni Muslim insurgents was indeed coming to an end.

3. Uh huh. I just posted that I didn't believe anything the US military

publishes. Crap like this is the reason why.

Pulling out of Fallujah my arse.

Freakin' LIARS!!!

,...*sigh* mass murders,...

[damnraddem]

16. They pull out because ...

they don't want to be standing under all those bombs as they come down.

No, that's reserved for the 300,000 residents of Fallujah.

5. Wow that was quick.

They got those Generals up and running on piloting our bombers in a hurry. Oh wait, they were supposed to talk to the insurgents...the right insurgents (not the Syrians).

[Webster Green]

6. So much flip-floppin....its hard to keep up...

Idiots!

[doxieone]

7. F-18 planes dropped two bombs (just said on CNN)...

This was about 2 hours ago he said.

8. This is just out of control

[KoKo]

9. MSNBC's Gen. Korb says reason bombings continue is that we

negotiated a ceasefire with the Fallujans but not with the Insurgents. So, we are bombing the Insurgents in retaliation for their firing on us.

:eyes:

10. A cease fire with the people who aren't armed

and a continued war with the people who have guns. That doesn't sound like much of an overall cease fire to me.

[Ripley]

12. Like the bombs know the difference.

Or are all the insurgents standing in the middle of the streets with bullseyes painted on their chests?

[BeHereNow]

11. and furthermore...

we need to distract public attention away from
the charade of Bush and Cheney "testifying"
before the 911 commission.

14. How many chiefs?

He said this would happen on Friday, but US defence officials in Washington denied knowledge of a any deal.
...
And officials at the Pentagon insist that discussions are continuing - and that US marines have not begun disengaging from the area.
