You are dreaming aren't you?? And if they don't, it makes no difference. We are not going to leave, nor take military losses, if they ambush unarmed civilian convoys. All they accomplish is to give us propaganda to use against them. It is often portrayed , falsely imo , that such tactics are cowardly. Guerilla warfare isn't cowardly. targeting civilians is cowardly. The reason the Iraqis and Afghan insurgencies will fail is because unlike successful insurgencies, they spend more time fighting their own people than the occupiers. The insurgencies aren't strong enough to dominate tens of millions of people, and they won't get strong enough with those kinds of tactics. Sowing fear can work, it did for the Viet Cong, but if it's not coupled with serious blows against the occupying force, it doesn't exactly give the impression among the populace that the insurgents are going to be the eventual victors and thus the people better make sure they are on the right side. As of yet, neither the Iraqi, nor the Afghan resistance, has even inflicted one serious military setback. We used to claim that we never lost a battle against the Viet Cong, but that's false. and many of our victories were very, very costly, and for no discernable objective. Without a victory to hang their hats on, they'll never be able to recruit in large enough numbers to drive us out.
