BAGHDAD, Iraq - The Iraq insurgency is far larger than the 5,000 guerrillas previously thought to be at its core, U.S. military officials say... The developing intelligence picture of the insurgency contrasts with the commonly stated view in the Bush administration... One hint that the number is larger is the sheer volume of suspected insurgents — 22,000 — who have cycled through U.S.-run prisons... in April alone, U.S. forces killed as many as 4,000 people, the military official said, including Sunni insurgents and Shiite militiamen... Army analysts looked closely for evidence that Iraq's insurgency was adopting extreme Islamist goals, the official said. Analysts learned that ridding Iraq of U.S. troops was the motivator for most insurgents, not the formation of an Islamic state... tinyurl.com And the dreams of OSAMA continue to grow with Iraq having fallen and now in danger of becoming the most dangerous Islamic nest of terror. Whereas Saddam was a caged beast, with inspectors running all over the country just before the invasion. CC
