I think you are referring to the Iraqis who are know behind our front lines and fighting. How long do you think they can maintain fighting without a good line of communication and with follow up units holding the land they are on?

If they have weapons, they can live off the land, and inflict disproportionate casualties for a long time. That is the nature of asymetric guerrilla warfare.
