The limits of technology

Mar 29th 2003

From The Economist Global Agenda

Will Baghdad be the backdrop for the mother of all battles?

COALITION forces have advanced through southern Iraq at an impressive rate, to within 50 miles (80km) of Baghdad. To sustain the pace of this advance, American and British troops have intentionally bypassed what have become known as “pockets of resistance”. The speed of the push north has been such that allied supply lines have, in some areas, become vulnerable. On March 29th, American officers on the road to Baghdad told reporters that a pause of several days had been ordered, though their commanders denied this. Whether it happens sooner or later, though, it looks likely that the battle to take Baghdad—the central confrontation of Operation Iraqi Freedom—will prove much more costly than any engagement in the war so far.

Taking on the Republican Guard divisions arrayed around Baghdad, a city of 5m people, would be easier were American infantry units advancing on the city from the north, as would have been the case had Turkey been more co-operative. Turkish airspace has now been opened to coalition aircraft, and 1,000 American paratroopers have been dropped into northern Iraq, with more to follow. Coming up from the south are infantry, airborne divisions and marines. Facing them are three of Saddam Hussein’s six Republican Guard divisions. American aircraft have begun to pound these, forcing some Iraqi troops to retreat into the city. The more of them that take up new positions in Baghdad, the greater the prospect of large-scale urban warfare.

Troops Take Control of Highway in Push North

By William Branigin

Washington Post Staff Writer

Monday, March 31, 2003

NEAR KARBALA, Iraq, March 30 -- Preceded by punishing airstrikes, Army troops spearheading the U.S. invasion of Iraq pushed north to within several miles of Karbala today, fighting running battles with Iraqi soldiers and militiamen along a key road and calling in artillery barrages to counter mortar attacks.

By day\'s end, the 3rd Infantry Division\'s 2nd Brigade had taken control of a stretch of Highway 9 about 14 miles west of the town of Hilla and 20 miles southwest of the ruins of Babylon. The area is about six miles from the Euphrates River, beyond which lie the southern approaches to Baghdad guarded by the Medina Division of President Saddam Hussein\'s elite Republican Guard.
