I don't think it is so very new, it is the usual guerillia style warfare, and it is always the problem with this style of fighting that the "real" military is not trained for that. They need their enemy to be a "real" opponent, to be available.
what makes the situation in iraq special are the numerous religious groups and the different mentality

Science has been charged with undermining morality, but the charge is unjust. A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties and needs; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death
