Fallouja, once the hub of the Sunni insurgency, is now deemed safe enough for American fast-food franchises.
In a neighborhood where the U.S. fought two bloody battles against insurgents in 2004, a Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet has opened.
Said to be popular with Iraqis and with Marines who still patrol the streets.
