U.S. officials in Baghdad fear that a fuel crisis, which has left Iraqi homes cold and dark and drivers waiting days for petrol, may inflame unrest before the election. "If the current situation does not improve quickly, public confidence in the government may deteriorate significantly,"
One of the main goals of the insurgents, foreign fighters, terrorists, people loyal to Sadam or Arab causes (or whatever we call them this week) is to disrupt life in Iraq and cause the people to lose faith in the U.S. Forces and the future government in Iraq. Due to their size oil and fuel lines are hard to protect and are easy targets that create maximum disruptions. The elections are fast approaching. Tactics like these will continue to dominate the news.
