Iraq Insurgency Likely to Stay Strong Into 2007, Pentagon Says


May 30 (Bloomberg) -- Sunni and Shiite insurgents will remain strong and capable of attacking U.S. and Iraqi forces until at least next year and some hardliners have joined forces with al-Qaeda, the U.S. Defense Department reported today.

``The Sunni Arab insurgents have effective and collaborative leadership, resiliency and links with the Sunni Arab political leadership,'' the report states. Al-Qaeda ``remains intent on instigating civil war.''

The U.S. Senate last November approved a resolution, spearheaded by Armed Services Committee Chairman John Warner, a Virginia Republican, calling on the administration to make 2006 a year of significant political and military transition in Iraq.

Today's report was issued in response to lawmakers' demand, incorporated in this year's defense spending legislation, that the Pentagon tell Congress each quarter about progress in Iraq.

Other assessments have suggested the progress toward President George W. Bush's goals in Iraq has faltered. The Pentagon's inspector general for Iraq reconstruction reported May 1 that the U.S. effort to rebuild the country is running out of time and money as the year-end deadline approaches for handing most of the work off to the Iraqis.

At least 46 people died today in three separate bomb blasts in Iraq, according to the Associated Press. Separately, the U.S. military will send a 3,500-member armored brigade to Iraq's Anbar province to try to provide security for Sunni leaders who have been attacked since they began to work with the U.S. in November, a Pentagon spokesman said today.

`Political Vacuum'

Sectarian violence increased in recent months because of the ``political vacuum'' resulting from the delay in naming a government following the December parliamentary elections, the report said.

The insurgents' ``strength will likely remain steady throughout 2006 but their appeal and motivation for continued violent action will begin to wane in early 2007,'' it said. At the same time it warns that some of those groups are aligning with al-Qaeda and other foreign fighters.

The report also says that public opinion and the fact that most of the attacks are concentrated in four provinces, including Baghdad and Anbar, suggest the risk of full-scale civil war is low.

`Difficult Times'

Bush said today he remains confident in the future of democracy in Iraq and said the U.S. is committed to seeing the new government there succeed.

``Although there's been some very difficult times for the Iraqi people, I am impressed by the courage of the leadership, impressed by the determination of the people,'' Bush said at the White House as Iraq's new ambassador, Samir Sumaidaie, formally presented his credentials.

Iraqi security forces have the lead in planning and executing operations in 30,000 square miles of Iraq -- an increase of 20,000 square miles from earlier this year, the Pentagon report said.

As of mid-May, 117,900 Ministry of Defense personnel have been trained and equipped -- or about 86 percent of the authorized force level, the report said. Another 145,500 Ministry of Interior police and border forces have been trained and equipped -- or about 77 percent of their authorized number.

``They are increasingly putting an Iraqi face on the counter- insurgency operations and are performing well,'' Lieutenant General Gene Renurt, strategic plans director for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters at the Pentagon.

what did cheney say about a year ago, something about the insurgency was in it's final throes or some horse shit like that?

on some level i know wars are necessary but when you decide on a whim to attack a country you should at least not be so arrogant as to think there would be no casaulties or that the war would be inexpensive - even pay for itself - or that god has somehow hand picked you to lead a country to attack another country

bring em on indeed

Yes, that about sums it up.

Here you have a lying bastard who was the former CEO of the corporation which has profitted the most from this war (with the possible exception of weapons manufacturers)

He still owns a sizeable amount of stock in said corporation, the value of which has increased considerably due to the endless no bid contracts of TAX PAYER MONEY which the BCE awards to said corporation.

The fucking filthy pig shoots a man in the face and isn't even questioned by the police about it.

So basically YES, everything he does IS wrong, and he makes a profit from most of it.

WHY?

Can you honestly answer that question, without resorting to bullshit neocon rhetoric that you heard on FAUX News or hate radio?

Can you explain how Chimpy's destruction of Iraq has made America safer. Or his liberation of heroin poppy fields and oil pipelines from the Taliban.

Where the fuck is Osama Bin Laden, if you believe the BCE's horseshit story?

Where is he?

For all the tapped phone lines, pirated e mails and phony arrests resulting in cab drivers being held at Gitmo, they can't find one fucking 6'5" Arab son of a bitch???

AND YOU STILL BUY THIS CRAP???

Why the fuck do you assume that I get all my information from FOX? As far as immigration goes I have been for putting troops on the border for at least fifteen years. Maybe you don't see it from the basement you live in but ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION HAS FUCKED UP CALIFORNIA!

As far as Iraq or Afghanistan go, I sleep much better at night knowing Bush is in the whitehouse as opposed to some PUSSEY ASSED DEMOCRAT AMERICAN APOLOGIST:gun:

As far as obl goes he will be caught or killed at some point. As far as the shitbags at Gitmo if you love them so much go there and give them all a big hug and kiss.:matrix:

BZZZZT - sorry, I said you must answer without repeating BCE/ whore media rhetoric. That answer is incorrect.

How can that be when Chimpy is "really not that concerned about him" (April 2002)

To enter into an intelligent dialogue with a sheep like yourself is an impossibility. An intelligent dialogue requires two intelligent people. Unfortunately, the wool seeping into your brain has obviously diminished what little intelligence you may have had. Taking into account that you voted for Dubya twice, you probably didn't lose too much.....
