PeteBoom	BS: USAF dropping leaflets - oh boy:-( (63* d)	RE: BS: USAF dropping leaflets - oh boy:-(	19 Mar 03
To return to the original intent of the thread and a couple of questions posed earlier - to wit, does the dropping of leaflets and other such actions "work" - Sun Tzu recommended precisely this type of actions before war commences. Granted, he's been dead some 2,500 years, but the point remains: A demoralized enemy lacks the will to combat - that is, the motivation to resist or to meet with aggression an armed, military opponent. Does it work? Last report I read (a few minutes ago) said 17 Iraqi solders surrendered Wednesday afternoon/evening, Iraq time. I'd say it works. That is 17 who will not be at their station to resist the invasion, or to be killed in the attack. Cheers - Pete
