Your impressions don’t count. Adelman is the only one who said “cakewalk” unless you can PROVE otherwise.
I think you need to go back and read pre-war speeches, etc, and you’ll find your “impressions” are based on feelings not facts.
Pity you want people held accountable for your misguided feelings.
Are you the same expert who said Adelman hadn’t served under Rumsfeld for thirty years? I’ve already “proven” Adelman was on Rumsfeld’s Defense Policy Board from 2001-2006. Since you’ve already been corrected today why don’t you see if you can redeem yourself and point out exactly what you’ve proven today? :)
