Meanwhile, back at the rest of the planet...

Arafat is getting worse. I'm beginning to find the secrecy of his ailment interesting.

Fallujah is heating up:

I MEF will continue to conduct operations and will not cease until Fallujah is free of foreign terrorists and insurgents.


Short, and to the point. May it be so this time.

The insurgent propaganda efforts aren't going well either:

BAGHDAD, IRAQ – Quds Arab-language news wire service in recent days has reported that four Arab-language media outlets have been forced from the city of Fallujah by Anti-Iraqi Forces.

According to Quds, Al-Arabiya, Middle East Broadcasting Company, Lebanese Broadcasting Company and Al-Iraqiyah television were forced from Fallujah by Anti-Iraqi Forces because they were accused of providing biased coverage to Coalition forces by refusing to air insurgent stock footage of alleged civilian casualties. In discussions with Coalition officials, reporters from both Al Arabiya and MBC acknowledged threats to correspondents and indicated that some correspondents had withdrawn from Fallujah for their own safety and were reporting via phone from outside the city.
