So it is in 2004, when gangs of raggedy-assed guerrilla resistance fighters take on the largest, best-equipped, best-trained Imperial Army on the planet, it&#8217;s looking once again like King George&#8217;s goons are going to get a worse whuppin&#8217; than they ever expected. Seems as if even as they crow about how much of Fallujah they &#8220;control&#8221;, the largest, best-equipped etc. Imperial Army is actually being surrounded, jumped, and sucker-punched every time they turn around by the aforementioned raggedy-assed guerrillas, as the Resistance spreads across Iraq, and King George&#8217;s boys are left &#8220;squeezing Jello&#8221; in Fallujah.
