Traditional American military strategy has always targeted the leadership first, followed by satellites.
For instance, Revolutionary snipers shot British officers off their horses before targeting artillery- to cut the head off the body so to speak. In WWII we defeated Germany before dealing with Japan.
It makes sense to destroy the most powerful cabal before dealing with the smaller subgroups. It divides them, cuts off their leadership, and eliminates the possibility of reinforcements.
