#2 There are disputed reports of Marines closing roads into Fallujah. With continued sabotage and terror attacks, apparently based from Fallujah, and with a new govt and a UNSC res, and with the Sadrist insurgency largely burnt out, it seems the time may have arrived to deal with Fallujah.

#3 Let's see if the Fallujah Brigade can hunt down and kill the bad guys now that they've been openly challenged. If they can't, then by the "honor/shame" code that that part of the world claims to live by they will be terminally humiliated and should just slink away. Maybe the Marines will get to clean the place out after all.

#5 Liberalhawk may be right. I just read that the Marine deployment in Iraq is being increased. It sounds like they are getting ready for something.
