Top American military officials are studying the possibility of invading Iraq from both the north and the south in order to topple its president, Saddam Hussain, Newsweek magazine reported.
The report said that the officials are looking at a study that suggests deploying 50,000 US troops on Iraq's southern border and another 50,000 on its northern border.
The plan calls for sending the two armies towards Baghdad simultaneously, Newsweek said.
"The question is not if the United States is going to hit Iraq, the question is when," the report quoted a senior US envoy in the Middle East as saying.
