Iraqi attacks 'will get worse'

London - Attacks against United States-led coalition forces in Iraq are likely to intensify in the coming months as troops struggle to guard ammunition dumps scattered across the country, a counter-terrorism expert told a parliamentary committee here on Tuesday.
Jonathan Stevenson, a senior fellow at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, said such attacks appeared to be better organised and more centrally controlled.
"There appears to be more centralised command and control of the insurgency," Stevenson told the House of Commons foreign affairs select committee, which is examining Britain's role in the global war on terrorism.
He said the coalition in Iraq found it "impossible to guard all the ammunition dumps which have proved to be sources of weapons".
