You li'l debil you... keepin' quiet 'n makin' believe you weren't around.. I got sucked in and tried to sub for you... I'm not even gonna take a look and see how lousy a job I did compared to yours --- Thanks for coming in ...
I looked at your summary a bit and saw only one thing that Franks made really clear : third to the last paragraph regarding the "reserves" ... He was specifically referring to the 4th Infantry Division and about whether Turkey keeping them out was a problem. Franks stated it was very important for them to have remained off shore of Turkey for precisely as long as they were there, and challenged the reporters to speculate for themselves as to why that was true.
So many people are saying "we don't have enough forces around Baghdad, etc"... he was really hammering home that we have enough, and that with the plan we have followed there are plenty of forces in the north given the huge leverage we obtain with our air power.
