Here's an interesting read.
True, it dates to the fall of Baghdad, when the US forces went from an offensive to an occupational mode. But that's what makes it co compelling.
Since the fall of Baghdad, the overwhelming majority of civilian casualties have resulted, not from US action, but the activities of the terrorist/homicide bombers who are intentionally targeting Iraqis.
The goal of the "opposition" seems to be to incite the peaceful Iraqis to rise up against the newly elected government. The means they have chosen to accomplish this is to terrorize the populace by indiscriminately killing or maiming as many as they can.
Their tactics resemble those of the IRA which, with an estimated force of between 200 and 400 active agents, was, for many years, able to tie up tens of thousands of British troops in Ireland
