There are still folks loyal to Baathism in-country who want Saddam back: add
to that the jihadists that came in prewar and those who've slipped in after
over the Syrian and Iranian borders to cause trouble. Anyone notice that
the Kurdish region is quiet, and that after a brief spurt of trouble, the
Shiite areas are settling down, except for the area that Sadr's thugs are
in control of, but he'll be taken down, and then Fallujah will be secured,
one way or another. I'll guess that the reason those in Fallujah are fighting
so hard is that they're protecting someone or multiple someones. Zarquari
or Saddam's ex-right hand Al-Duri would be the best bet. The more of their
followers we send six feet under, the better. These are folks who do not
want any democracy or elections in Iraq, just more rule by terror and fear,
either revived Baathism or a Taliban-style govt. Ain't gonna happen.
