#1 Why weren't they shot on sight?

#2 Larger than Fallujah, Ramadi has been left to fester far too long.

I wish we would just blockade the city, cut the water off and tell them to eat bombs.

#5 They are some brave studmuffins when there's nothing but civvies around, ain't they? Oooweee!

Just as with Fallujah, before, apparently Ramadi is being used as the safe haven, the magnet, to concentrate these Lions of Islam in one area.

Come! Yes, come to Ramadi! Sanctuary and plenty of streets to strut!

Hmmm. What's the MOS for Lion Tamer / Varmint Killer?

#9 One of the 'benefits' of letting the terrorists alone in Ramadi is that they tick off the locals.

It makes the ultimate clean up easier.

Having said that however, Ramadi is a big city and its hard to cordon it off (the fallujah cordon wasn't that effective and many suicide bombs got through)

#11 "And instead of spending money for this conference, they have to give it to us to buy weapons to help our fighting against the Americans"

Conferences are stupid wastes of time, but weapons and force are good. Geez, if only these guys werent Islamists and baby killers, they could fit in pretty well with some other folks I know :)

#12 WTF liberalhawk? Normally I enjoy reading your comments, but I am truly disappointed and offended by your clumsy effort at equivacation. Did you actually mean to equate Rantburgers who want to defeat Islamofacsism and who believe in robust self defense, with those who seek to mass murder and enslave mankind under a religion based on the selfish whims of a egomaniacal madman, and whose most notable contribution in the last several hindred years has been the suicide car bomb? Smiley face or not, I expected higher standards from you.

#14 for the ultimate in tanking plasure back in CONUS, nothing beats Irwin in August.

#15 bad - One of the most fun things I've ever done is firing LAWs (the old M-72s) on the hulk range at Knox. Last one I saw was in Falling Down, heh. BTW, methinks hitting hulks is funner than blowing up sewers, lol!

#16 WTF liberalhawk?

I think the "liberal" part of him overpowered the "hawk" part. Either that, or someone's spoofing his name.

#18 Ar Ramadi (Ramadiyah) info page at Global Security. The maps they offer there, here and here, leave a LOT to be desired. Anyone have a good map / sat image of Ramadi?

#21 This sort of situation is really looking for a transparent robot blimp (make it a tad harder to shoot) with IR or UV laser and a good power source.
(sit way up there and cause unexplainable 2nd and 3rd degree burns on trigger fingers and such... Mess with their minds.)

#22 3dc, check out the work of a dear friend of mine. The basic work was done long ago, it's now just a matter of fine-tuning for this particular need and situation. ;-)
