Another huge sign of Bush's incompetence (well, there are too many to list, but here a few more) is his telegraphing passes before a major war, i. e. warning Afghanistan that he was planning to invade before he did, even though the decision to attack was already made (i. e. not an either-or).

Consequently, the Taleban rebels had plenty of time to prepare for the battle.

Bush made the same blunder in Iraq.

Attacking Afghanistan w/insufficient forces was also a screwup.

As a result of these blunders, the Taleban successfully defeated the US and forced it into terms of surrender--the second time the US has conclusively lost a war.
