I remember seeing the last few days several scenarios for the 'Fallujia' problem. Some whimsical, some not.

1) Surround the city. Tell everyone that those not involved in the desecration of the 4 Americans will be allowed to leave thru the one checkpoint. Vet everyone that leaves (check against videos of the killings). After that flow subsides, tell everyone that is left that the city will be swept until the responsible are pointed out or identified and captured, jailed, and 'brought to justice'.

2) Install a remote driving control in a 2004 Black Surburban with Massachusetts or Maryland plates. Black out all the windows. Install as much ammonium phosphate, diesel, nails, nuts and bolts and one remote detonator as the vehicle will carry. Drive thru the center of town until the mob attacks the vehicle, like last time. Wait until as many as possible are around. Send them all to Allah.

We're really good at improving on an idea that works.... show the Iraqis what a real Improvised Explosive Device can do.

Repeat as necessary.

3) Surround the city. Send the Iraqi police force into the city to find the perps. Take devastating multiple RPG attacks on the defensive positions while the Iraqi Police are hiding in a mosque. Lose 30 coalition lives a day until the American populace says "Enough".



I think plan 1) is what is running. I think plan 3) is what is going to happen. I wish plan 2) was what was being done.
