"...and that the enemy can choose to open new theaters of operation that are unexpected (such as Saudi Arabia or Pakistan)..."
Questions the Bush Administration needs to consider... What if the next assasination attempt on Musharraf succeeds and there is a fundamentalist coup? A coup in Saudi Arabia? North Korea moves south? China invades Taiwan? A domestic terrorist act requiring us to secure an attacked area, or better secure the borders, or detain enemy nationals?
Do we have the troops, supplies, and transport?
The first two are real issues; the second two are not.
If the DPRK heads south, the problem will be "how do we keep the ROKs from storming up to the Yalu and scaring the crap outta the ChiComs?"
If the ChiComs try to invade Taiwan, hwow are they going to do it? Get Louis Farrakhan to organize the Million man Swim? (How long can even hardened ChiCom troops endure Farrakhan's numerological rantings about the significance of the number 19?)
