Iraq's resistance fighters pt. 2: Weapons - 24 Dec 07

Al Jazeera has been given a bleak insight into the potential for a resurgence of violence in Iraq.

Figures from the United States suggest the daily cycle of violence has dropped by around 60 per cent.

But pictures obtained by Al Jazeera show that the Islamic Front for Resistance in Iraq or Jami is obtaining newer and better weapons.

And former Iraqi army officers who lost their jobs after the invasion are training young recruits to fight US troops.

Our Iraq Correspondent, Hoda Abdel Hamid, has the second of our exclusive reports.

[generaldeejee]

@gladifly do you know why this ratio is so unbalanced? Do the insurgents not fare well in combat due to their use of AK's and body armor or are they badly trained

[gladifly]

@mrcheeky112 not really for every single american/british they kill we kill 20 of them thats actually a fact aswell. plus almost all the deaths of our troops have been because of IEDs you see these terrorist scum aren't man another to face our troops face to face.

@grimblebrumble17889 actually, according to people that know what the fuck theyre talking about, the earth will increase in population by 1.7 billion over the next 14 years and 97% of that growth will be in india, pakistan, iran, north and west africa and somewhat china. china has come nearly as far as they are going to go, very soon they will realize their resources are not as abundant as they believe. oil reserves went from a 4.5% annual decline to 9% just this year. the west holds the future.

[grimblebrumble17889]

@mrkeywork Wont last forever son. Nowt does. Another 50 years and the entire western world will be running scared from the Chinese. Say what you want but a red dawn is on the horizon and were all going to toe their line.

@Rangerleadtheway44 American funded terrorism against the British government and Palestinian civilians made Israel. Zionist massacres of Arab villages and terrorist attacks on British military, Police and civilian services along with US political intereferance is what made Israel.
