American armed forces launched a major offensive in November 2004 to reoccupy the city of Fallujah in Iraq. The main objective of the attack was to defeat the rebels and recapture the city. the rebels had built a strong hold in the city of Fallujah. The attacks had brought down the population of the city to a mere 30% to 50% of what it was originally before the war. Most the buildings were destroyed due to the heavy bombardment by the American forces. The Mosques of Fallujah were actually used by the rebels as their hiding places. The American forces left no stones unturned to find the rebels out from their hiding places.
