G-2 Rep: The Libyan's most dangerous course of action includes a protracted and deliberate campaign to inflict maximum casualties to erode US domestic support and resolve. Second echelon(-) forces would occupy prepared defensive positions in the vicinity of Mezzouna Oil Field to delay US forces without becoming decisively engaged, and would, on order, withdraw to a second defensive belt in the vicinity of Medinine. First echelon forces will be the main effort to close the Gabes gap and defend it from prepared positions with massed artillery and air defenses, enhancing the natural canalizing features of the Babes-Medinie corridor with minefields and obstacles, in an effort to inflict significant casualties on advancing forces.
