Operation Unilateral Force was a 2940 military effort on the part of the United Empire of Earth (UEE). It was a combined attempt to incite infighting between Vanduul clans by disproportionately targeting a single clan. Experts anticipated that by noticeably weakening a single group of Vanduul, it might be possible to cause other clans to turn on the weakened group. The hope was that as the Vanduul battled each other, it would potentially reduce raids on Human colonies allowing the military to shore up further defenses. While the operation led to the crippling of a powerful Kingship, it did not generate the expected internecine conflict.
