"Retired Army Maj. Gen Paul Eaton, who was in charge of training the
Iraqi military and police, went so far as to say that “Mr. Rumsfeld and his
immediate team must be replaced or we will see two more years of
extraordinarily bad decision making.”

He also said that postwar planning was “amateurish at best, incompetent a
better descriptor.”"

"Retired Maj. Gen. Batiste related that Rumsfeld at one point
threatened to fire the next military leader who mentioned that the Pentagon
needed a postwar plan in Iraq."


Odd how often incompetent seems to be used wrt the Bush administration.
