Cheney flew to Iraq to assure him that we would back him up. I expect their plan was to make it appear that U.S. Forces &quot;joined&quot; the Iraqi Army when they encountered strong resistance. Petraeus is in Washington, so the &quot;joining in&quot; must have been preordained.

That&#8217;s their M.O.. They never think that one of their grand schemes might not work, and what to do if\/when it doesn&#8217;t.
