WTF Is It Now?!?

'The appearance of a guerrilla movement'
Remember all those happy, grateful, flower-throwing Iraqis the misadministration promised us?

Attacks on American troops are growing in frequency and sophistication across central Iraq, a crescent of discontent and hostility where many Iraqis remain opposed to the U.S. occupation of their country.

Almost every day, well-organized groups of assailants using assault rifles, rocket-propelled grenades and mortars are ambushing U.S. Army convoys, patrols, checkpoints, garrisons and public offices used by troops to interact with the civilian population.

In response, U.S. forces are trying to crush resistance through house-to-house searches, arms seizures and deadly force, in some cases with fatal consequences for innocent bystanders. The persistence and evolution of tactics is giving the violence the appearance of a guerrilla movement.

"These are military-type attacks," said Capt. John Ives, of the 3rd Infantry Division's 2nd Brigade in Fallujah. "It could get worse before it gets better. It's a matter that some people want us dead. We're just going to have to take them out." - Another lie from the misadministration.
