It's interesting, yet predictable, to read so many out of alignment assumptions the critics of this war need to go through, in order to post their drumbeat of anti-war postings. Here's ten incorrect assumptions I've noticed.

1. We invaded because WMD were going to ran down on us any day. Bush told us so.
2. It was going to be a smooth cake walk, not costing any lives.
3. We anticipated no problems with the infrastructure of Iraq. Everything including the lights were going to work perfectly.
4. We expected to be finished our work in less than 4 months.
5. We expected it to cost very little.
6. Terrorists would be frightened to such a degree they would never strike again in Iraq.
7. No one was going to get killed. Including innocent photographers.
8. It was all over after the first 20 days.
9. Every Iraqi would sing Kumbia at our presence.
10. Terrorism would disappear the world over because of this action.
