SNOW: What I’m saying is that anybody who tries to say, “I knew exactly what was going to happen” at the beginning of a war on the ground, they’re wrong. It’s simply impossible.
Lots of people knew, from Gen. Shinseki to the Army War College to the National Intelligence Council.
Snow also tells a new whopper about Teh Surge:
SNOW: No, we are paying. It is – the other thing that’s happened is that there – the theory behind the surge was that you had to work first to convert enemies into friends, which certainly happened in Anbar province.
The Anbar Awakening started months before Teh Surge was even announced.
