Powell is the reason we had the second Gulf war. Schwarzkopf wanted to keep going on to Baghdad and put an end to Sadam once and for all.

Powell was an ungrate full man who was more a political than a warrior like Schwarzkopf.

Powell also lost Turkey as the northern front in the second Gulf war, forcing us to delay for weeks and allowing Saddam to escape capture for months.
