China was coming in no matter what MacArhur said or didn't say.
Saddam's initial plan certainly wasn't attrition, it just ended up that way when he was reminded that Arab's can't win wars. Plus several year old US gear is better than brand new Soviet gear. Saddam should have had an easy win, what with the Soviet style purges of the Iranian military before the war and Iran having no important allies, yet they still suck.
I agree with you on Gulf War II, disbanding the Iraqi military was a mistake. We probably should have just handed them the keys and left, reminding them that we don't want to come back in 10 years....make sure we don't. Here is our number if you want to be friends.
