March 28, 2003, 1448hrs MSK (GMT +3), Moscow - According to the
latest intercepted radio communications, the command of the coalition
group of forces near Karabela requested at least 12 more hours to
get ready to storm the town. This delay is due to the much heavier
losses sustained by the coalition troops during the sand storms then
was originally believed. Just the US 3rd Mechanized Infantry Division
sustained more than 200 disabled combat vehicles of various types.
The 101st Airborne Division reported some 70 helicopters as being
disabled. Additionally, the recently delivered reinforcements require
rest and time to prepare for combat.
The coalition force was clearly insufficient for a such a large-scale
operation. The number of deployed troops was at least 40% short of
the required levels. This is the reason why today, after nine days of
war, the US is forced to resort to emergency redeployment of more
than 100,000 troops from the US territory and from Europe. This, in
essence, is the same number of troops already fighting in Iraq.
The second problem of the coalition is its inability to hold on to
the captured territory. For the first time since the war in Vietnam
the Americans have to deal with a partisan movement and with attacks
against their [the US] lines of communication. Currently the coalition
is rushing to form some sort of territorial defense units for guarding
its supply lines and for maintaining order in the occupied territories.
It should be noted, however, that the way the war is being fought did
create a certain sense of disappointment in most of the troops. Many
are feeling that they've been lied to and are openly talking about
the stupidity of the high command and its gross miscalculations.
"Those star-covered Pentagon idiots promised us a victory march and
flowers on the armor. What we got instead were those damned fanatics
fighting for every dune and the sand squeaking in your ass!" said one
of the wounded recuperating at a hospital in Rammstein. [ Reverse
translation from Russian ]
Among the strong sides of the Iraqi troops are their excellent
knowledge of the terrain, high quality of defensive engineering work,
their ability to conceal their main attack forces and their resilience
and determination in defense. The Iraqis have shown good organization
in their command and communication structures as well as decisive and
and well-planned strategy.
At the same time commanders of the [Iraqi] special operations forces
are making good use of the available troops and weapons to conduct
operations behind the front lines of the enemy. They use concealment,
show cunning and imagination.
