Assumptions? Some assumptions must be made in military planning. When I assume away enemy capabilities, or overassume the capabilities of my own, I am pulling the wool over my own eyes.
Let me assume that a small force is capable of conquering the enemy. I will assume that the HN will be grateful and compliant. I assume that the utilities will be functional, or require only minor repairs to restore. I assume that the enemy forces will surrender and will return to lawful employment upon release. I assume that the post-conflict military operations can be conducted with a minimal military force. I assume that the neighboring countries will control their borders with my target nation and control access. After these vastly over-optimistic assumptions, who is inside who's OODA loop?

Absolutely. Timely and relevant.

He knows only The Cause.
