IRAQ: FALLUJAH RESISTANCE

AP: U.S. warplanes strike Fallujah; 9 U.S. troops killed

American warplanes pounded Fallujah with missiles Sunday as insurgents fought running battles with coalition forces in the volatile western Iraqi city. The U.S. military said two soldiers and seven Marines died in separate incidents.
Several detained leaders of Saddam Hussein's regime began refusing meals in apparent protest against their upcoming trials, U.S. military officials and a lawyer said. Former Iraqi strongman Saddam Hussein was not among them.
