U.S. air force fighter plane A-10 "Warthog" fires shells towards insurgents, as seen from the Combat Outpost Cahill, a small U.S. military camp southeast of Baghdad, November 6, 2007. It's a typical confrontation in the Iraq war -- insurgents with low-tech weaponry emerging from hiding to launch pinprick attacks, and then trying to slip back into the shadows before the U.S. military can hit back with vastly superior firepower.
