"I think the Iraqi leadership is coming apart..."
Thursday, March 20, 2003

NPR reporter embedded with US troops: "I think the Iraqi leadership is coming apart...I think last night's mission was a success."

His analysis is based on troop movements and postures on the front line right now. He says that things are not going as planned, and that in the last hour there has been a major turning point in the war.

Is it over? Or is he misinterpreting the situation?

A general in the studio is interpreting that the posture may be a psychological operation against Iraqi leadership - a minor show of force to encourage them to believe that there is still hope to end conflict before it "starts" by surrendering.
