reporters, they egg the US soldiers on. "Come into our city and we
will show them what we are made of," they say. "They have tanks and
planes but are cowards, we will fight till there are none of us
left," others say.

military will not allow itself to be humiliated in the manner of last
week's mutilation and hanging of four killed US mercenaries working
for the private security firm Blackwater. They know the US military
will not allow the daily attacks on convoys to go unpunished. A few
hours before the horrific mutilations and lynching, five US soldiers
died when a powerful improvised explosive device ripped their armored
personnel carrier apart.

> And the US military is edging for a fight. On Monday morning, US
forces closed off the Iraq-Amman highway which leads through
Fallujah. Reporters attempting to enter the city have told this
writer that they were told by US officers that the area surrounding
Fallujah - and the city itself - is off-limits to reporters, a
restrictive zone, expected to be closed down for anywhere between two
to 10 days.

laying siege to Fallujah and punishing its citizens by disallowing
shipments of food and water.

> With no independent reports from Fallujah, Iraq analysts warn the
world could be kept in the dark about scores of civilians likely to
be caught in military confrontation between US forces and Iraqi
resistance.

> Coalition authorities have promised a swift and precise response to
last week's mutilations of four contract servicemen who were ambushed
in central Fallujah. However, in media reports filed before the city
was cordoned off, angry Iraqis claimed that it was US policy in the
area that fueled their anger. Among their complaints:

> Mounting of the foot over the neck of Iraqis - an affront in Iraqi
society

> The detaining of Iraqi women and teenage girls
>
> The house searches well into the dead of night, using shock bombs,
threats, and verbal abuse
>
> The returning of detained women, often barely clothed
>
> The killing of civilians by US forces with no assumption of
responsibility or guilt

> Iraq is entering a perilous phase as Iraqis begin to realize that
the freedom they were promised was a thinly-veiled farce aimed at
extorting the country of its mineral and oil wealth. There is open
revolt in the south of Iraq where the young cleric Muqtada Sadr has
declared that negotiating and/or exercising democratic tools like
protests and demonstrations has not worked with the Coalition. His
Mahdi Army has seized several police stations throughout the south of
Iraq. US forces retaliated by seizing a Sadr office in Kirkuk.
