Phil Carter's comments on Max Boot's review of General Tommy Franks' new book are well worth reading. They contain a number of important insights about planning the war again Iraq (or the failure to plan it). Carter also rightly critiques both Boot and Franks for not seeing things or not making points that they really should acknowledge, if one's goal is to explain why particular decisions were made and other decisions were not.
