US sending Patriot missiles to Pak-Afghan region WASHINGTON DC-The US Defence Department finalized its strategy for an imminent war with Taliban regime and Washington is now transporting huge quantities of Patriotic missiles in that region to protect. An official source told PPA that the decision to dispatch Patriots was made after receiving warning from Taliban that they would use Scud missiles against American interests in the region.It was not clear if any of the Patriot missiles would also be mounted in Pakistan, which has also been threatened with severe retaliation by Taliban if Islamabad supported an American onslaught. An American source which requested anonymity also said that the decision to transport big number of Patriot missiles had already been taken few days earlier. "The consignment was in its way close to Pakistan and all preparations could be finalized by later this week," he added. In the meanwhile Pentagon has also finalized its war strategy and according to a defence source, US will adopt more or less a similar strategy, it adopted 10 years ago during Gulf war. At the first night of attack Americans reportedly plan to launch Tomahawk Cruise missile, and will then send fighter planes for carpet bombardment in difference cities of Afghanistan including capital Kabul. It is believed that these bombardments would continue for 2 to 3 or more weeks to * communication, as well as TalIban headquarter in Khandahar. Some defence observers argue that for their own safety measures, the US should not send its soldiers until a month or more to capture, or kill Bin Laden. Most observers agree that whenever US troop enter the Afghan soil they would put their lives in extreme risk even if most of Afghanistan is destroyed. Observers agree that since Taliban have a long experience to tackle such kind of situation, US should not much optimistic about a successful operation. http://pakobservercom.readyhosting.com/september/19/front/news11.shtml
