U.S. PLANS ATTACK BETWEEN JULY AND SEPTEMBER 
 

WASHINGTON [MENL] -- The Bush administration is
believed to be planning to launch a three-month
military campaign on Iraq during the summer.

Western diplomats, intelligence officials as well as
congressional sources said the administration has
relayed its intention to launch an attack on the
regime of President Saddam Hussein by August. They
said President George Bush has outlined plans for a
staged offensive that would first seek to assassinate
Saddam and his key cohorts.

The U.S. attack, the diplomats and sources said,
envisions a lightning offensive against Baghdad and
the capture of key Iraqi military installations. They
said the move would seek to kill Saddam or drive him
out of Baghdad to eliminate the prospect of bloody
resistance in the Iraqi capital.

If this doesn't work, the diplomats and sources said,
the United States would launch stage two of the
military campaign. This would involve heavy air
attacks on Iraqi military installations. Stage three
calls for a ground attack.
