Two decades after #GeorgeWBush, a #DefenseSecretary nominee is dismissing laws incorporating #GenevaConvention even before he's confirmed.
#Bush at least blurted out a word salad on national TV about #disgraceful conduct. Trump won't even deign to do that.

The #BushAdministration generally and #Rumsfeld’s #DepartmentOfDefense fiercely opposed competence during the #IraqWar. The most competent members of the administration, #ColinPowell (the only cabinet member with actual war experience and to boot a successful war *in Iraq* which even a minimally competent person—though clearly not #Dubya—might recognize as relevant) and #CondoleezzaRice were sidelined and their departments made subservient to the #DOD.
The Bush Administration generally and Paul Wolfowitz specifically was so obsessed with finding a justification to invade Iraq that they demanded repeatedly that the CIA investigate increasingly absurd connections between Iraq and Al Qaeda. #iraqwar #bushadministration #cia #alqaeda #dickcheney #scooterlibby #donaldrumsfeld #unitedstates
@jalefkowit @Holberg Contrast that with, say, #DonaldRumsfeld. The mystery of his rapid accretion of wealth still fascinates me.

No, #DonaldRumsfeld deserves no kind obituaries. A lying mass murderer who set the Middle East on fire, destroying millions of lives. A torturer also, lest we forget. All of it, for nothing more than greed.
#DonaldRumsfeld arderá en el infierno, a fuego lento, por la cantidad de almas que costó su existencia. Y están esperando a Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Aznar, Blair, y alguno más. #payyourbill
The #warCriminal will be remembered as such.
