Yes, our army is better equipped. In any war, one army one is always better
equipped than another. In our Civil War, the North was better equipped than
the South. In the Boer war the British were better equipped than the Boers
(except for rifles). In our Revolutionary War, the British were better
equipped than the Colonists. Better equipment does not guarantee a victory.
I don't know who Ken Adelman is. I looked him up on Google and what I read
doesn't ring any bells.

surely the US and Iraqi armies were roughly the same size, but the US army
is far better equipped.

You asked who thought it would be easy/suggested no-one said it would be.
Remember Ken Adelman, ? Cakewalk?
