The Knight Ridder news agency is reporting at least 200 Iraqi troops have already gone AWOL instead of taking part in the US-led invasion of Fallujah. Meanwhile the U.S.-appointed Iraqi Prime Minister Iyad Allawi yesterday flew to a US military base near Fallujah to rally Iraqi soldiers. He told them, “Your job is to arrest the killers but if you kill them, then so be it.”
