They'd find an argument either way. If he left it to Tommy Franks, he didn't take it seriously enough. If he directed the warplan development himself, he would be portrayed as having no faith in his subordinates, or he'd be lambasted for playing "squad leader in the sky" from Washington.

This is what the war is all about for some -- politics.


You're off to paranoia land again. The sources I quoted were the BBC and the Washington Post, quoting senior military personnel. None of which are your typical left wing publication I believe.
