Intelligence flaws In Iraq
According to Washington Post article, learned among others that:
Commanders reported that younger officers and soldiers were unprepared for their assignments, "did not understand the targeting process" and possessed "very little to no analytical skills." That some key intelligence machinery has been misused in Iraq. Network that was supposed to link intelligence teams and convey time-sensitive information among them..worked so poorly that it was "nonexistent.". Intelligence problem has also been hampered by problems with interpreters. Also interpreters were wasted on errands such as being sent with troops "to buy chicken and soft drinks,"

Whew! that's a lot of problems and flaws!
