"God damn, well, I declare! Have you seen the like?
Their walls are built of cannonballs;
their motto is 'Don't Tread On Me'!"
--grateful dead.

In 1776, gangs of raggedy-assed guerrilla resistance fighters took on the largest, best-equipped, best-trained Imperial Army on the planet, and dished them out a harder licking than they ever expected...and you know the rest.

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's looking once again like King George's goons are going to get a worse whuppin' than they ever expected. Seems as if even as they crow about how much of Falluja they "control", 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's boys are left "squeezing Jello" in Falluja.

And it's to them, the Iraqi resistance, the "Minutemen" of Falluja, I dedicate this cartoon. Viva la Falluja!
