Are these guys in the same place?
From CNN's coverage on Falluja:
There has been less organized resistance than expected so far, said Lt. Col. Pete Newell with Task Force 22 of the 1st Infantry Division.From The New York Times's coverage on Falluja:
Hundreds or thousands of insurgents met the American attack, sometimes contesting every inch of the advance and sometimes melting back into the darkened houses of the city they have held for more than six months.From The Washington Post:
Significant fighting was reported overnight in the southern sections of the city with heavier exchanges in an industrial area along the main highway leading to Baghdad.From The Washington Times:
Witnesses said fierce battles with rockets, tank shells and automatic fire continued, and that militants claimed to have inflicted heavy casualties on U.S. and Iraqi forces.So, we here at The Malcontent don't know what Lt. Col. Newell was expecting, but we are agog at his ability to think positively.
