Tratfor: Strategic Planning Information - Strategic-Planning

In previous years - specifically in the year of 1994,  the Ethiopian government specifically  requested other “Chrisitian”  communities to “interfere”  miliarily in the Ogaden  , and attempt to completely wipe out the mujahadeen.  So America and Eritrea became more than directly involved in the battle and conflict.   This stage saw American jets take off from the Indian Ocean  bombing the Mujahadeen positions for hours and hours at a time while Eritrean soldiers were firing their fixed cannons and tanks at the domicile and strategic targets and various locations of the Mujahideen.    It was quoted in the field ” that we planned to use the militia and militia war strategies and to avoid large scale confrontations and battles with the enemy particularily  as the Eithiopean forces along with their American and Israeli allies had stages a broad attack on the mujahadeen both through land and sea in 1994.”    There appeared to be large scales and amounts of American experts who were training the Eithiopean army in all aspects.
