Combine this attitutude by soliders with the following statements by Rumsfeld and things dont look good.

4/20/2004
WASHINGTON – Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said Tuesday he was skeptical that negotiations in the besieged Iraqi city of Fallujah would lead to the detention of those responsible for the killing and mutilation of four American contractors three weeks ago. ...when asked whether the United States would strike a deal that did not include taking the killers into custody, he replied, "One would think not."

So the US is gearing up for a battle in Fallujah with soliders who are now competing to get in kills? Many civilians left Fallujah, but they are comming back:

FALLUJAH, Iraq, April 20 -- Refugees from this shell-shocked city began trickling home Tuesday, encouraged by news of a political agreement that could end the two-week conflict between U.S. Marines and Iraqi guerrillas and eager to learn what had become of their neighbors and homes.
...
Because many Iraqis have large extended families, officials allowed each family to bring in two vehicles and 25 people. They were let in on a first-come, first-serve basis, and by evening, police said, at least 1,250 residents had re-entered the city.

If fighting starts, US solidiers will probably be competing for kills on easy targets as civilians come back into the city.
