I too am a bit unfamiliar with earlier history of the Philippines, but still think the solution has modern-day applications. First thing I'd do after sealing off and securing Fallujah, is roll in a D-8 Cat, dig a deep pit, post warnings in the local language of why the pit is there, and then construct a large pig pen right next to it. Let the good citizens of Fallujah know that any breach of peace will be dealt with harshly, and attacks on Coalition forces will result in execution and defiling. Oh, yes, and one last thing: I'd invite Al Jaerza TV crews to come in and film the first execution, and ask them to broadcast it all over the region.
