It only takes one lizard person in an unassuming office at the Pentagon to make this happen. No one person really knows how many people the military has where.
On a related note, my infantry unit was in Iraq prepping for a long night of raids while we watched CNN announce the last combat troops had left Iraq.
I read Norman Schwarzkopf's autobiography as a kid, and he goes into detail about the importance of media integration for Desert Storm. Nothing the media said was true. Even perfect victories were misreported with losses because they had made the Iraqi army sound badass during the build up. They didn't think the American people would believe arab Hitler could be crushed flawlessly.
