Grr

I'm not surprised -- rather, disgusted:

Iraq planning 'delusional' (BBC -- why isn't the American press digging into this?)

With such unrealistic assumptions in military planning used for justifying the war, why didn't Congress -- who authorized the use of force in Iraq, and is responsible for oversight of the funds used for its execution -- question these plans?

Oh, that's right -- the balance of power shifted only in January 2007.

Let's hope that Congress actually flexes its oversight authority and deeply investigates all aspects of the war, from the faulty intelligence to the despicable underfunding of the troops.
