It matters little with irrational decisionmaking overruling and abusing wargame results.

  That will be part of the game design surely. If push comes to shove the war games will matter a lot.

  "I think they're in the last throes, if you will, of the insurgency." -- Vice President Dick Cheney, 2005-06-20

    Cheney is 1. A thoroughly mendacious character 2. A moron A lot of people ascribe malice to him, but it’s clear as day that he was in over his head with the entire project. Basically 0 of his goals have been achieved 17 years in. So I would say that while the appearance of competent war games was there, it was a charade.

      He was involved in a war of aggression, and his company made a bit of money both for destruction and rebuiling, did it not? And we can't even begin to guess how many "buddies" profited. At any rate, he's not in jail, and I think that is way too much success than is acceptable. He may be a moron, he certainly is a fool, but then what does that say about the ~300 million people in whose name he did his crimes, to live happily and smugly ever after?
