BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Guerrillas targeted by one of the fiercest U.S. bombardments of Baghdad since the fall of Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) are defiant men in track suits who patiently hide in garbage before firing rocket-propelled grenades at patrols.



Iraqis who have watched the insurgents operate said they would just keep playing a cat and mouse game with American forces even after feeling the heat of Operation Iron Grip. snip

Residents do not expect the U.S. military firepower to deter insurgents from hiding in its dirt lots before ambushing American soldiers at nightfall.


"These guerrillas won't stop. They are not afraid. They carry out suicide attacks, why should they be worried about the Americans?" said Ahmed al-Mughrabi, a former soldier.
