Ralph Peters makes a good point. We wasted our element of surprise to hit antennas on the roofs of empty buildings. Now the terrorist leaders will never bunch up again. We wasted the strike.
We’re putting lives at risk for a few antennas.
“We wasted our element of surprise.”
What element of surprise? When there are 5 other regional nations involved in the operation there will not be an element of surprise.
The same was true with GWI and GWII.
The first day’s strikes are more intended to destroy resources and facilities. Drones, ELINT and ISR will re-acquire the personnel in coming weeks for the aircraft and drones to strike.
