      The NY Times has a good overview. It’s only one of the things that went wrong but if the other stuff hadn’t gone wrong (such as an intelligence failure) the forces would’ve been there and ready, and even with that intelligence failure, if they had not been needed elsewhere, they would not have been that thinned out.
