Please detail all of Rummy's missteps for us.
1. Too few "boots on the ground" in the initial stages of OIF. (We went into Iraq with less than 1/6 of the U.S. and coalition troops that invaded Kuwait--a country approximately 1/5th the size of Iraq.
2. Widespread looting and (probable) movement of WMD after Baghdad taken.
3. Iraqi army and paramilitary forces completely dismantled (instead of saving those loyal to the country and weeding out Saddamists, we opted to "rebuild" thus giving optimum time for insurgency to begin).
4. Micromanagement of commanders and disregard of opinion of military people such as Gen. Shenseki, others.
5. Resistence to "surge" which is now employed...
McClellan-like, Rumsfeld was only effective in rebuilding the military; not leading it and IMHO he goes down in history along with Simon Cameron as far as legacy!
