Thread: Us to invade iraq

  1. #1
    Found an article in a Swedish newspaper, refering to an article in the New York Times. Aparantly its an all out invasion planned with assaults from air, sea and land. Some 10 000 troops. Gonna look for more news.

    For you Swedes and other Nordic people...

    Thats nice, except they probably have three different plans to do the same thing. Hell the German General Staff had about 20 different plans for invading every single country in Europe, no matter what their relationship might be, just to be prepared, because thats what good soldiers do.

    "If you want peace, prepare yourself for war", or how it was.
    I wonder what US is going to do when they have taken control of Iraq..
    Some people say that US wants to eliminate Saddam Hussein..
    It has been said about Saddam, that "He may be crazy, but at least he is predictable."

    In U.S. Special Operations we follow this rule of thumb for mission planning.

    Primary
    Secondary
    Contingency
    Emergency

    Sorry fellas, can't give you any info on a possible invasion on Iraq.

    Thats OK, I cant imagine you have that much to give out anyway. If you did, I doubt you would have time idling on the OFP forums ;P

    Ever heard of a SCIF? It's like a top secret internet for the DoD. I spend alot of time at the forums while I'm at my civilian job because I have lots of idle time. I know plenty of stuff that there is no way in hell that I would tell you. So there.

    Um. If all the E4&#39;s know about the invasions plans then the US is fucked. No, really&#33;

    Anyway, during Bush&#39;s visit in Germany a couple of months back, he said that USA has no immidiate plans to invade Iraq.

    AFIK the EU has said no (including UK) to an invasion. USA can&#39;t pull it off by themselves. With the latest ICC fun & games, I doubt that EU&#39;s sentiment will change. So in the end it might not be a question of USA not wanting to invade Iraq but the question of USA not being capable of invading Iraq.

    Top secret + internet sounds like a bad combination..
