Fallujah insurgents besieged by US and Iraqi troops have invited journalists to “embed” with them to report their side of the war.
“All media will be allowed into Fallujah to witness the crusade against Islam and see the real face of America. US media will not be excluded,” said a statement by the Fallujah Mujahideen Shura (council), composed of insurgent leaders, tribal chiefs and Sunni Muslim clerics.
“We will protect and transport them to the location of the events. There will be a special building for the journalists.”
Every journalist who has ever written the line “precision strike on a Zarqawi safe house” should be sent into Fallujah to take the mujahideen up on this offer.
