R.P.G. Alley
(New York Times) - Michael R. Gordon American convoys delivering supplies to the troops in Iraq are being attacked more frequently than during the war.

The attacks indicate that allied forces are contending with a cunning adversary, one that has studied the pattern of American military operations and has adjusted its tactics accordingly.
