US planes pound Fallujah

US planes carried out multiple raids overnight against what the military termed hideouts of Iraq's most wanted man Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, medics reported at least five killed and 16 wounded, and efforts to mediate a truce between the government and rebels collapsed.

"In total, the raids have resulted in five people dead and 16 wounded," Saleh Khamis al-Issawi said from the hospital.

The US military said the aircraft hit a "safe" house in the north central part of the city belonging to a high-level Zarqawi associate.

3. What happens when these guys eventually get their hands on some

Surface to air missiles and use them on the "liberators"? My guess is they will do a hands off policy like they are doing with Osama
