Ahh. So that's what the story meant about Rummy scrapping the plans they'd had 'in the drawer' for 10 years. I'm sure Rummy and Gen. Franks realized that any plans that old were not appropriate for the kind of war we'd be facing in Afghanistan and Iraq. The very real possibility of suicide bombers and IEDs made the prosecution of this war like nothing our military had faced before. There had always been isolated attacks on military units and installations before, but nothing quite so organized. And it was clear from the beginning that the attacks, after the initial war, were being coordinated using fighters from outside the country; it was NOT a classic insurgency.
These whining generals seemed desirous of fighting the LAST war, not the next one, and got their knickers in a twist when plans didn't go their way.
