OK -- Since YOU seem to be privy to "THE PLAN" -- educate us as to Just

I never said I was privy to any plan. I merely pointed out that the notion
that an army of 150,000 would have no plan for occupying captured territory
is ludicrous on its face, notwithstanding what you read in The Guardian.
The fact that a plan is not working is not prima facie evidence that no plan
exists.
