I'm assuming everyone here is going to read this because finally the Bush Admin has released some sort of plan, rather than the "they hate us for our freedom" non-sense.
But still, you'd think the "National Strategy for Victory in Iraq" would have more numbers and facts in it and stated goals, such as at what level do we deem the Iraqi economy successful? What is being done to ensure a democratic gov't is instated? Basically, the Bush Admin is assuming democracy will be embraced. I doubt they've even taken the scenario seriously that the Iraqi people would prefer a theocracy.
And what was that I saw at the end of the plan, the word "insurgent". Rummy would not be too pleased after his diatribe yesterday, but in all likelihood he'll never read the Strategy for Victory.
