Marine Corps Times on Monday, calling for Rumsfeld to go
Marine Corps Times on Monday
calling for Rumsfeld to go
Rumsfeld has lost credibility with the uniformed leadership, with the troops, with Congress and with the public at large. His strategy has failed, and his ability to lead is compromised. And although the blame for our failures in Iraq rests with the secretary, it will be the troops who bear its brunt. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id... War supporters reconsider "I think now I probably would have said, 'No, let's consider other strategies for dealing with the thing that concerns us most, which is Saddam (Hussein) supplying weapons of mass destruction to terrorists,"' said Richard Perle, who sat on the Pentagon's Defense Policy Advisory Committee until 2004. Kenneth Adelman, who served on the Defense Policy Board with Perle, said Bush, Defense Rumsfeld and others in the administration "turned out to be among the most incompetent teams in the postwar era. Not only did each of them, individually, have enormous flaws, but together they were deadly, dysfunctional."

Critics of the war in Iraq point to Adelman's predictions regarding weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Adelman said that weapons were likely to be near Tikrit and Baghdad, "because they're the most protected places with the best troops. I have no doubt we're going to find big stores of weapons of mass destruction." [2] He also claimed that the U.S.-led occupation of Iraq would be a cakewalk: "I believe that demolishing Hussein's military power and liberating Iraq would be a cakewalk. This President Bush does not need to amass rinky-dink nations as 'coalition partners' to convince the Washington establishment that we're right." [3][4] Regrets of Iraq Stance In an issue of Vanity Fair that was published in November of 2006, Adelman indicated that he regrets urging military action in Iraq and feels that he overestimated the abilities of the Bush administration leadership. He was quoted of saying "I just presumed that what I considered to be the most competent national security team since Truman was indeed going to be competent." He also added, "They turned out to be among the most incompetent teams in the postwar era. Not only did each of them, individually, have enormous flaws, but together they were deadly, dysfunctional." http://en.wikipedia.org/wik... posted by
