Insurgents turn bolder in Iraq

[Barrett808]

BAGHDAD -- The U.S. military has quietly acknowledged that insurgents -- despite the growth of Iraqi security forces -- have grown bolder in their attacks.

U.S. officers said fighters aligned with Al Qaida and Saddam Hussein have been attacking military bases in the Sunni Triangle. They said the fighters plant bombs near the entrance of major bases and in one case entered a base and conducted a suicide strike.

"They are bold and getting bolder," U.S. Maj. Mike Jason, adviser to the Iraq Army's 1st Battalion, said.

Jason has been serving on a military transition team at Camp Taji, north of Baghdad and near the Tigris River. The camp has become the target of numerous improvised explosive devices attacks, some of them planted by unemployed Iraqis paid the equivalent of a few U.S. dollars.
