GEOSTRATEGY-DIRECT INTELLIGENCE BRIEF

Saddam to use suicide pilots against U.S.?

Aircraft with biological weapons could answer American attack

Iraqi President Saddam Hussein believes he has figured out a
way to respond to a U.S. military invasion expected this
summer: suicide attacks by Iraqi pilots with aircraft filled
with chemical and biological weapons.

Western intelligence sources said Saddam has been bolstering
his air force and elite units to carry out suicide missions
against U.S., Kuwaiti and Israeli targets. Saddam has
concluded that Iraq could never defend against an American
onslaught. The best defense is a lethal offense built on
Iraq's arsenal of weapons of mass destruction.

The sources said Western intelligence agencies in both the
Middle East and the West raise the following scenario: Iraqi
missiles tipped with chemical and biological weapons are fired
toward Israel and Kuwait. Iraq has about 50 Al Hussein
missiles with a range of 400 kilometers.

But this is a hit-and-miss prospect. The missiles are old and
the launchers are creaky. U.S. satellites are closely
monitoring Iraq for any appearance of these weapons.

As a result, Saddam is preparing suicide pilots. The sources
said they are being trained on Russian MiG-29 and Su-24
fighter jets to fly below radar level through Jordan and into
Israel or through southern Iraq and into Kuwait.

These missions would identify strategic targets in the Persian
Gulf and Israel. The key Israeli target would be the nuclear
reactor at Dimona.
