You have not provided ANY evidence that Rumsfeld supports the article, as you claimed. The only statement that comes close, is the false statement from the Telegraph: "The public admissions by Donald Rumsfeld, the US Secretary of State for Defence, and US Navy Rear Admiral John Stufflebeem that they were surprised by the toughness of the Taliban gives a glimpse of how badly things could have gone wrong."
Stufflebeem expressed "surprise"; Rumsfeld did not. And Stufflebeem clarified his widely-quoted statement on October 30, according to my notes at the time during his live press conference: "Stufflebeem explained he was simply looking at the Taliban's situation from an American perspective: He knows the inevitability of their defeat, and was surprised that they did not yet realize that inevitability. But they will eventually."
You have yet to back up your claim that Rumsfeld supports the Seymour Hersh article. As I said, you are full of crap.
I must say that I find Stufflebeem's first comment to sound as if it has a grain of truth in it - his second comment on the same topic sounds as if he has been both taken out to the wood shed and re-programmed with the appropropiate spin.
