	Ramadi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ramadi is considered to be the southwest point of Iraq's Sunni Triangle.
		The spring of 2004 was particularly bloody in Ramadi.
		In early June 2006, the decision was made to intensify offensive operations in Ramadi and to deploy the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 1st Infantry Division (2-1st BCT) from Germany; however, the deployment was later than scheduled, with the 2-28th BCT returning to Pennsylvania before the replacing units could arrive.

	Ramadiyah / Ar Ramadi
		Ramadi was established for political reasons, but proved vital as a stop-over on the caravan routes between Baghdad and the cities of the Levant.
		The arabisation of towns in northern Iraq involved the forced removal of non-Arabs - Turkmens and Kurds - to the three (predominantly Kurdish) northern muhafazahs (provinces) of Arbil (Irbil), Dahuk (Dohuk), and As Sulaymaniyah (Suleimaniyah), which remain outside Baghdad's control; or to the south, often to the city of Ar Ramadi (al-Ramadi).
		Ramadi is one of several Sunni-majority towns along the Euphrates River west of Baghdad that was a stronghold of support for Saddam Hussein.

	Marines Repel Assault
		RAMADI, Iraq - U.S. troops repelled an attack Monday by Sunni Arab insurgents who used suicide car bombs, rocket-propelled grenades and automatic weapons in a coordinated assault against this city's main government building and two U.S. observation posts.
		The fighting in Ramadi, the capital of Anbar province, provided fresh evidence that the insurgency is thriving in Sunni Arab-dominated areas despite last month's decline in U.S. deaths.
		The attack in Ramadi was the biggest since April 8, when insurgents besieged the Government Center until U.S. jets blasted several buildings used by gunmen to fire on the Marines.
