<<800 Missiles To Hit Iraq In First 48 Hours By Andrew West, And Agencies 01/26/2003 Sun Herald Page 4 Copyright of John Fairfax Group Pty Ltd THE US intends to shatter Iraq ``physically, emotionally and psychologically'' by raining down on its people as many as 800 cruise missiles in two days. The Pentagon battle plan aims not only to crush Iraqi troops, but also to wipe out power and water supplies in the capital, Baghdad. It is based on a strategy known as `` Shock and Awe '', conceived at the National Defense University in Washington, in which between 300 and 400 cruise missiles would fall on Iraq each day for two consecutive days. It would be more than twice the number of missiles launched during the entire 40 days of the 1991 GulfWar. ``There will not be a safe place in Baghdad,'' a Pentagon official told America's CBS News after a briefing on the plan. ``The sheer size of this has never been seen before, never been contemplated before.'' The plan has emerged just as American diplomats at the United Nations hinted that the US Administration might be willing to give UN weapons inspectors another month to complete their task.>> BTW i do not know what city The Sun Herald represents. this search engine searches virtually every newspaper in the world.
