Anyone with an iota of intelligence and common sense could see that at the time. Anyone with an iota of intelligence or common sense would have had a post invasion plan. The generals themselves said it would take at LEAST 250,000 troops to police Iraq post invasion. Schwarzkopf warned it would be a quagmire. Anyone with a modicum of intelligence could see how it would turn out before the invasion. And were therefore against it. Regards, Ian
