There are no journalists in Falluja. But Jo Wilding got in to take wounded civilians out. We received her gripping, detailed account four hours ago and you can read it here: http://www.opendemocracy.net/debates/article-2-95-1843.jsp:

"And the satellite news says the cease-fire is holding and George Bush says to the troops on Easter Sunday that, 'I know what we’re doing in Iraq is right.' Shooting unarmed men in the back outside their family home is right? Shooting grandmothers with white flags is right? Shooting at women and children who are fleeing their homes is right? Firing at ambulances is right?

Well George, I know too now. I know what it looks like when you brutalise people so much that they have nothing left to lose. (...) I know what it looks like when tracer bullets are passing your head, even though you are in an ambulance. I know what it looks like when a man’s chest is no longer inside him and what it smells like, and I know what it looks like when his wife and children pour out of his house.

It’s a crime and it’s a disgrace to us all."
