Franks is displaying far more loyalty to Rumsfeld then Rumsfeld did to Franks. Rumsfeld also undercut Frank's authority as a commander. One way Rumsfeld did this was by having SOCOM report directly to Rumsfeld ....a clear violation of the Principle of War called "Unity of Command".

Your are changing the subject and moving the goal posts. It was Franks' plan, not Rumsfeld's. He was given all the resources he requested. You claim to have read Frank's book. Do you believe Franks' own words?

I am adding additional reasons why Rumsfeld needs to go and there are MANY more reasons.

Yes I believe Frank's words .... "the discussions" with the JCS about his plan AND the need for 250,000 troops to occupy Iraq. Yes Franks approved the final plan, it's too bad Rumsfeld did not approve the FIRST plan.
