Fallujah Iraq and Gaza In late 2004 the US military attacked the insurgents in Fallujah, Iraq. The US military encircled the city, and prevented any male from age 15 to 50 to leave the city. Around 30 to 50 thousand civilians were trapped in the city, while the battle lasted around 6 weeks. Fast forward to 2024. Twenty years later, the US administration pressures Israel not to attack the city of Rafah in South Gaza, before letting all civilians out of the city. What is the difference between Fallujah and Rafah? Are civilian Iraqis less guarded that civilian Gazans? Or, maybe the US administration today uses different standard in urban warfare for Israel than it used for the US military in Iraq? Anyone has an answer?
