Its like the factor of three. When you were a teenager, you "claimed" to have slept with approximately three times the women you actually slept with, hehe....
Except their factor is more like 1000. They kill one US soldier and it's "the Mujahadeen have killed an entire Battalion of infidels!"

Sure, air power would help, however dropping a 2000 pound bomb will sure eliminate the surrounding "insurgents", so will also wipe out the surrounded US column".
Speaking by telephone to al-Jazeera satellite TV, Abu Sa�d ath-Thallami said that the Resistance had set 30 US vehicles ablaze and captured two others in the al-Jawlan neighborhood, where two tanks had been encircled and abandoned by their crews amidst a great many other wrecked tanks. The young men of the Resistance, he said, have seized those two tanks.
Resistance destroys 30 US tanks and captures two intact. American invaders expelled from areas they earlier took over
Resistance shoots down six US helicopters in and around al-Fallujah on Thursday.
Meanwhile, Iraqi Resistance forces in the al-Jaghifi neighborhood wiped out a US column. The Resistance first allowed the US troops to enter the neighborhood and then fell on them, wiping them out to the last man.
The correspondent reported that the US was dropping heat bombs that reduce the amount of oxygen in the air.
