FALLUJA "AWAKENING COUNCIL" INFILTRATED BY AL QAEDA IN IRAQ

Only recently President Bush and his public relations mouthpiece, FOX NEWS, were claiming Falluja should be considered a model of how well "the surge" has been working in Iraq.

However, now the Voices of Iraq is reporting the Falluja Awakening Council has been infiltrated by Al Qaeda in still another display of just how tenuous conditions are in Iraq.

As usual, the mainstream media in the United States has fallen silent on the latest developments out of Falluja.
