Uh, that is incorrect-- Franks was Central Commander of the Iraq war-- he reported to Rumsfield and to President Bush. But, Franks planned and ran the war with their complete confidence and support.

You just don't associate him with Iraq because he's not a TV guy. Read his book.

Nope, thought he was done after Afghanistan, and never went to Iraq.

Still, I do not believe the man ought to be held accountable for the Abu Ghraib mess.

Think I'm going to read "Unfit For Command" first.
