Donald Rumsfeld is either a liar or a fucking idiot - possibly
both. He had the tools to make sure this shit didn't happen - even
with just the US military - if he hadn't been a damn fool idiot
about initial deployment strengths, and had had a goddamn plan for
post-war (not firing hundreds of thousands of trained Iraqi
combatants immediately after accepting their surrender would have
been a start, you damn jackass).
"Nobody could have predicted"? Hell, I was figuring out ways to try
and minimize chances of uprising, and I'm a damn amateur at this
shit. But it doesn't take much more than an amateur to realize that
Rumsfeld has never figured out that Logistics is the heart of
warfighting, peacebuilding, or, really, anything - not weapons, not
technology, not fighting skills, not even morale.
Can someone be tried for treason for incompetence and negligence so
gross that it does, in fact, provide aid and succor to the
enemy?
Goddamn lying fool.
