Bomb in Fallujah Kills 10 U.S. Marines, Wounds 11

Our young men and women are dying so that Iraqis can hold their 'parliamentary elections'? Why are our Marines walking the streets of Fallujah? Are you telling me that after 32 months we have been unable to train what amounts to a simple, regular police force that would patrol their own city streets? If you're not calling for our soldiers and Marines to come home from this debacle, if you think our men and women deserve to die because the Iraqis aren't willing to stand up for their own freedom.... you're a shameless idiot...
Ten U.S. Marines were killed and 11 others were wounded yesterday by a roadside bomb in Fallujah, about 40 miles west of Baghdad, a U.S. Army spokesman said. The Marines were on foot patrol when the bomb went off, according to Private First Class Michael Cost, who spoke in a telephone interview from Baghdad. Iraqi soldiers and U.S. forces are conducting operations aimed at thwarting efforts to disrupt Iraq's Dec. 15 parliamentary elections, according to e-mailed U.S. military statements.
