I think Rumsfeld knows exactly how to invade a country: take by far the worlds biggest, most advanced, and most powerful military, use amazingly expensive gadgets to provide fantastic information, and then send in limited numbers of well-trained units to conquer a vastly inferior army.
That wasn't the problem, really. Our invasion of Iraq (and Aghanistan, although there are issues there) were fantastic.
But an invasion force is NOT an occupying force. I think both Afghanistan and Iraq have shown that no Bushie has any fucking clue how to occupy a country or run peacekeeping operations. They just know how to invade.
Which makes them completely fucking useless once the invasion is over and as bad for this country (and its troops) as any terrorist, even if their intent was good.
