I think this one was strictly a "mind" campaign.

LOL.
Nothing like precision bombing to change even the most resistant of minds.

Probably just a training run. Guaranteed there are no Iraqi mortar guys hanging around long enough for an airplane to get there--notice that the target is described as a "position". Unlikely that we will need air support in Iraq, not sufficiently responsive or precise in small unit warfare, particularly with a lot of civvies around. But you never know and, so it is important to rehearse the comms and coordination & terminal procedures every now and then.
