Iraq's insurgency continues at a fierce pace

An insurgent commander who gave his name as Ismail al-Dulame sees things differently. The 47-year-old Iraqi, who met with a Knight Ridder correspondent in a house outside of Fallujah, commands 20 insurgents or, as he called them, "lions."

Wearing a dark blue dishdasha - the traditional Arab tunic - and speaking in a rough voice, al-Dulame said that while insurgents took massive casualties in Fallujah, they are regrouping and continuing to fight.

"We are the ones who choose the time, the field and the style of attacks," he said. When explosions boomed nearby, he said they were insurgent mortar rounds falling on U.S. forces.

"Believe me," al-Dulame said, "the fight is going to continue, and we will do whatever it takes. ... There is no one leader or one group. It is more than that. It is a fire that started in many places, and it is going to form a big fire that will isolate the invaders ... and burn them."
