National Geographic - Inside Shock And Awe
Summary:
On March 21* 2003* United States military forces launched an all-out offensive against Saddam Hussein’s forces in Iraq* signaling the beginning of the second War in the Gulf* with an attack strategy known as “Shock and Awe.” Rather than bombing the entire city* this technique was based around a large number of “surgical strikes” which pinpointed specific crucial targets with sharp focus and deep force* in the hope that the precision assault would intimidate the enemy into surrender without the need to level all of Baghdad. National Geographic: Inside Shock and Awe is a documentary which examines the military strategy behind the launch of the war in Iraq* how the Shock and Awe technique had been used in the past* and the high-tech weapons that allowed American forces to destroy important buildings and military facilities while leaving civilian areas untouched.
700 aircraft. 800 cruise missiles. 3*000 precision-guided bombs. One objective: crush the Iraqi regime. The real story behind 48-hours of the most massive precision bombing campaign in history involved more than the explosions that rocked Baghdad. It sought to destroy a regime without killing large numbers of civilians. To accomplish this mission* ‘Shock and Awe’ would rely on an array of revolutionary* high-tech weaponry and an unprecedented strategy.
