More on "desperation" (new speak, 1984). The commander of American forces in Iraq says enemy fighters are getting better at what they're doing. Lieutenant General Ricardo Sanchez tells reporters that his troops are suffering an average of three to six deaths and 40 wounded every week. Sanchez also says American forces are getting attacked 15 to 20 times a day, including with roadside bombs. The commander says the enemy has "evolved," but that U-S forces expected to see such evolution over time. He says insurgents have gotten -- in his words -- "a little bit more lethal, a little more complex, a little more sophisticated." Sanchez says militants and other terrorist elements are pouring in from Syria and northern Iran to join Saddam Hussein loyalists in Iraq. But he notes there are positive signs in Iraq -- including many schools re-opening. He also says Saddam is hiding -- and won't be coming back to power. kfor.com JMO lurqer
