The U.S. DoD now reports nearly 230 American and Iraqi casaulties. So far 600 rebels and terrorist have been killedby airpower before the offensive.
No current estimates exist on how many have been killed by US and Iraqi ground forces in the first of the fighting. Although I'm quite sure it was a slaughter when it came to mutual combat.
Also two Marine Cobra gunships where hit and forced to crash land inside the hostile city. (Sound familure?) But this time the 4 pilots were quickly and succesfully rescued by US Forces.
The U.S. Marines are now hunting snipers who have retreated from the streets and into the surrounding buildings.
"Our air superiority is incredible," said Sgt. Michael Carmody, 26, of Thompson, Pa., with the 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines in northern Fallujah. "All we can do now is clear through the city and look for survivors. Air power is our best friend."
Airpower has played a critical role and probably has cut the causaulties of US and Iraqi forces in half.
The U.S. forces have also uncovered atrocities committed by the terrorist during their occupation of the city.
Those atrocities include a 'slaughter house' where dozens of victims were held captive and beheaded. Also discovered was a house inwhich 5 victims were found, all shot in the head.
At least one hostage has been freed by US forces when he was dicovered by Marines chained to wall. He claimed to be a taxi driver who had been held and beaten for 10 days.
US commanders believe a recent terrorist offensive in the Kurdish city of Mosul was intended to divert attention away from Fallujah.
A group of terrorist have ransacked the pro-American UKP HQ. Now The Kurds are pissedb who combimed forces with US soldiers and launched a counter-attack against the terrorist in Mosul.
A senior member of the pro-American Patriotic Union of Kurdistan party, said nine police stations were attacked and that "Iraqi police turned some stations over to the terrorists. The internal security forces...are a failure and are ineffective because some of them are cooperating with the terrorists," Ahmed said.

I didn't even notice it was the wrong thread, as I was going through both of them at pretty much the same time.
