Yesterday, listening to NPR while driving home from work, I heard an "independent journalist" from Baghdad accusing the U.S. military of committing "genocide" in Fallujah. I call it war, not genocide, but that raises the legitimate question, why exactly are we in Fallujah? Consider this, hot off the Associated Press "wire:"
"NEAR FALLUJAH, Iraq - Iraqi troops have found "hostage slaughterhouses" in Fallujah where foreign captives were held and killed, the commander of Iraqi forces in the city said Wednesday.
"Troops found CDs and records of people taken captive in houses in the northern part of Fallujah, Maj. Gen. Abdul Qader Mohammed Jassem Mohan told reporters."
The story goes on to say that the records they found did not indicate the whereabouts of hostages in captivity which are believed to be still alive. On the other hand, they aren't finished with Fallujah yet.
Like I said, I call it war.
