I may be stating the obvious, but it does look like all the planning for Iraqi Freedom has been entirely short-term. Reminds me of the German Army not having winter uniforms in mid-winter when they were just outside Moscow in WWII.

Incidently, on the side show you will see angry Iraqis angrily protesting FOR the US presence.
