U.S. Attacked Iraqi Defenses Starting in 2002
By MICHAEL R. GORDON


AS VEGAS, July 19 � American air war commanders carried out a comprehensive plan to disrupt Iraq's military command and control system before the Iraq war, according to an internal briefing on the conflict by the senior allied air war commander.

Called Southern Focus, the plan called for attacks on the network of fiber-optic cable that Saddam Hussein's government used to transmit military communications, as well as airstrikes on key command centers, radars and other key military assets.

The strikes, which were conducted from mid-2002 into the first few months of 2003, were justified publicly at the time as a reaction to Iraqi violations of a no-flight zone that the United States and Britain established in southern Iraq. But Lt. Gen. T. Michael Moseley, the chief allied war commander said that the attacks also laid the foundations for the military campaign against the Baghdad government.

Seeker, are you licensed? What gives you the idea that Moku might have a mental illness?
The content is the first part of an article. I assume it is placed for inspection and review for the members here. Let us not cast judgement on fellow members unless they have displayed enough odd actions to where any layman can see the truth. *casts watchful eye toward the Colonel, hand hovering close to the thorazine injector!*
