That is not what I call a top commander. His backgraound is that of a tank commander, and he had no idea how to command troops outside of tank formations. I watched a Frontline report on him and he was supposed to be the clean up and get out commander, and he had no idea how to deal with an insurgency. He was in a position that he shouldn't have been in from the start, and had little experience commanding. The real commanders had already left the battlefield, and he was just supposed to finish a job he had no idea how to finish. He is just blaming everyone for the failure of his career is what I am seeing. I have more on him if anyone is interested.
