#3 I had a Communist Plot once. I grew red beets, red cabbage, and red onions.

What should I plant in a Zionist Plot?

#5 Article: Several members said they were angered by the dissolution. "This was a great violation to the members of the brigade by the American forces and the Iraqi interim government," said Maj. Ahmed Abed Abaas. "Dissolving the Fallouja Brigade, they broke the truce agreed upon last April when the Americans besieged Fallouja."

So much for the folks who said we shouldn't have disbanded the Iraqi army. But you're never going to hear the liberal media talk about it. Instead, the focus is going to be on how the Fallujah truce was a mistake, forgetting that it was a test to see whether some of these hardcases were salvageable. Now that we know that they're not willing to work with the new government, they're going to have to be cleared out, one at a time. Fallujah's Baathists have had their chance. They are about to face the fate of Sadr's men.

#6 typical for the LA Dog Trainer (via Patterico):
With the demise of the Fallouja Brigade — agreed to by the interim Iraqi government and the Marines — the Marines are left with no attractive options for rooting out Fallouja’s entrenched insurgency

The "unattractiveness" of the options are as seen only by the Zarqawi terrorists, their enablers (including the LLL Times et al), ex-Saddamites, and miscellaneous riff-raff who've got a taste of tank and artillery coming. Level the place. Make it a lesson.

On the contrary, they DO have an option.
