Don't you know? It takes months and months, just oodles of months, to put our forces in place. And it is just too bad that, with the "blazing heat of the Iraqi summer" upon us again, we're going to have to postpone the whole thing again. Goshed darned it! I just hate it when that happens.

we have been ready to attack iraq since last september Actually, that isn't what Franks was saying. He was responding to a question concerning the change in tactics from defending Kuwait to invading Iraq:
Franks' comments come after the Bush administration released a report Friday outlining a new aggressive national security policy.
You inadvertantly left that out of your post.
You also left this small point out:
The number of U.S. troops currently training in Kuwait has grown to nearly 10,000. More than double the number that have taken part in past exercises.
Wow, 10,000. Sound like all the pieces were in place.

Note the number of troops in Kuwait in September - 10,000. Pop quiz - how many troops would you rather have assembled for an invasion force - 10,000? Or 300,000? This is a toughie, take all the time you need.
