Summary, etc. Commentary on the disconnect between the kind of capablities based war the US (and to a lesser extent other Western governments) would like to fight and the reality of relatively low tech insurgencies. Asks why flawed theory continues to be accepted in the face of actual experience. Recommends the study of recent conflicts and the learning of real lessons rather than those wished for; also recommends that capabilities-based approaches to force development be abandoned. Author is a U.S. Army Colonel.
