Appreciate the distinctions. BIG QUESTION: Why did the U.S. Army's War College publish it under its imprimatur? Why did they publish it at all? Even with all the disclaimers about whose opinions the report represents, the confusion is inevitable. Do you think the War College is trying to have it both ways? Maybe they agree with some or all of the opinions expressed in the report but, if things get too hot, want the option to point to the disclaimers? Just a thought.

From what I gathered on Brit Hume's show, almost everybody that is at that "college" at one time or another pens some kind of "study."

Rumsfeld characterized it as an "op-ed" piece.

If you get a chance, watch Brit Hume's rerun.
