Why don't you do some research on what our combat veterans were telling Rummy before the war? When Turkey rejected our troops, the Pentagon virtually begged Rumsfeld to bring in the troops by air(albeit slowly). He was told he could still have a lighter northern front which would force Hussein to allocate resources to his north.

Why didn't Rummy agree?

You tell me. WHY DO YOU THINK RUMMY WAS SMARTER THAN OUR CAREER MILITARY OFFICERS?
