43. Funny how you ignore where the most car bombs and suicide bombers have hit
If you will note, it is areas in and around Iraqi National Guard locations and Iraqi police stations that have been hit by car bombs and suicide bombers the most. Civilian casualties are the result because they are in urban areas, but the fact that they died outside these places is not lost on Iraqis or anyone on the ground. I can't count how many times I've seen reports of car bombs and suicide bombers going after police stations and Iraqi guardsmen and kill them but also end up killing several civilians nearby.

Besides, you don't even know if it is the bulk of the Iraqi resistance that is doing this or if it is only limited to the religious militants, foreign fighters, and ex-Ba'athists and ex-Fedayeen. These groups are the ones who don't give a flying fuck who gets in the way, but you should be careful not to imply that they represent the entire resistance front given that you don't know its composition to begin with.
