(Touchdown.) The siege of Fallujah. America on a killing spree:

"...The exposure of this one shooting will be used to obscure the reality that the entire operation in Fallujah constitutes a massive war crime carried out on the orders of the White House, with the active or tacit support of every segment of the American ruling establishment..."

*MARGARET HASSAN*
Leading journalist Robert Fisk asks: Who killed Margaret Hassan?
www.wsws.org/articles/2004/nov2004/fisk-n18.shtml
Coincidence? The surfacing of a videotape that allegedly shows the execution of Margaret Hassan coming as it does fresh on the heels of the video of the execution of a wounded Iraqi resistance fighter by US Marines seems to be part of a pattern of diverting attention away from embarrassing revelations for the occupiers.

Troops move to quell "insurgency" in Mosul (legitgov.org):

(a more appropriate word than "insurgency" is "resistance". Somehow the "R" word vanishes when the US is slaughtering civilians.)
