RUMSFELD, CORPORATE MASTER OF WAR & LIES, LIES, LIES:
The man who says nothing and everything all at the same time...

From the man who brought you Aspartame without FDA approval, and the Corporatization of our Military force.

Of all the Traitors to be in cahoots with the likes of Bush, Cheney, Libby, Rove, and a host of others, this is the person most likely to create a service industry of american mercenaries with no allegiance to either our country or the Constitution. He's a big advocate of the "Tooth to Tail" corporatization of our military, but at the same time, those patriotic americasn who join the US Military will be killed at a reduced rate of pay, while others hired by the likes of Halliburton and Bechtel (which he has corporate ties to) will make 10 to 100 times more than the troops for virtually the same jobs.

Our troops may become "McTroops", a subset of minimum wage "workers", and dispensable cannon fodder as part of Rumsfeld's bold new plan to reinvent the forces that fight for and guard our country.

Rumsfeld was one of he very few in the Bush administration riddled with ChickenHawks to actually serve in the military.

It's been said that the day the buildings were struck on 9/11 that Rumsfeld immediately called for the invasion of Iraq, ready to take full advantage of the emotional grief and to try and groom it, inflame it, mold it into a Revenge mode with the help of a very pliable Media, many of which are also weapons manufacturers.

He had no qualms about doing business, as did Cheney as far back as the 80's and during this period the Senior Bush administration was funnelling money into Saddam's coffers under the guise of "agricultural" loans.

Of course he knew there were Weapons of Mass Destruction on Iraq soil - he was one of the group of corporations selling them to Saddam, they all had the reciepts.

Rumsfeld answered to no one when it came to the proganda wars needed to create the impression in the American psyche that there was a clear and present danger of vast proportions.

He created a personal Intelligence Unit, who answered to him, cherry picking from other Intel to create various scenarios that fit the plan for the invasion of Iraq. Not to mention that he was a charter member of the PNAC (Project for a New American Century), along with Cheney, Libby, Bush and many of their underlings. He and Cheney had signed a letter to President Clinton demanding that he attack Iraq, which Mr Clinton wisely ignored, instead creating wealth for our nation.

Rumsfeld wanted war with Iraq in the worst way, but as the man in charge of such a huge undertaking refused to listen to Generals and field commanders who pleaded with him to not go into Iraq, either in the first place, or without enough troops.

Like Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld inhabits some dreamworld, or had been intentionally misleading as many people as possible since taking the job of leading us into war.

His answers to press questions are always peppered with hubris, arrogance and border on the insane.

As he saw it, part of his job is to streamline the military, which involved handing over services usually provided by the military to corporate sources, like Halliburton. In the end, as with any corporation, and especially with Cheney's old company the bottom line became the most important issue and not the troops needs. Hence, the troops have been ill equipped to deal with any kind of war, with no personal armor, or armor for their Humvee's, as well as even lack of food and water, or ammunition has cost many lives. Lives which should have never been taken in that part of the world in the first place, as this "war" is nothing but a death machine allowing defense contractors, politicians, and media to get rich.

Part of Rumsfeld's "steamlining" of the military included either forcing career officers to retire, or making conditions so unbearable that many retired in disgust. In the end Rumsfeld may well have created a personal and private corporate Army and Air Force, Marines, etc who are not beholden to this country at all, but to the almighty corporate dollar instead.

This is dangerous in the extreme, and is not something the Constitution calls for. A military under some sort of Supreme Rule can and will eventually be used against it's own citizens, at which time it will signal the end of Democracy itself.

It appears that Rumsfeld would like nothing more that to see that happen, and since he made an Oath upon being sworn into office to uphold the Constitution, to protect American Citizens from "enemies both within and without" the country he had entered into Traitorous territory.

On top of it all he also has made statements that outraged Veterans of ALL wars, saying that many of them were as much as useless despite their patriotism and service to their country.

Along with Bush and the GOP in lockstep he has assisted in every way to remove benefits for Veterans on a large scale, from closing bases, to withholding medical help sorely needed.

Rumsfeld thinks nothing of closing down bases and VA hospitals that will be needed for the next crop of lives destroyed by war and needing the support of our country.

While Agent Orange plagued the last generation of men in Vietnam, the effects of depleted Uranium vaporizing and blowing all over Iraq, on the health of the Iraq populace and the troops has not been measured yet. Nor have the super infectious diseases being brought back to our country from that distant war torn country.

But Rumsfeld doesn't care.

He appears to be a heartless, cold blooded death merchant, even laughing as innocents are killed and refusing to abide by any treaties or even the Geneva Convention, which was created to protect civilians and troops alike from torture and other mistreatments no matter what the war or who fights it.

Rumsfeld, along with Bush and Cheney have created a mentality and promoted it through the media that shows utter disregard for basic humane treatment of anyone, and act as tho torture is perfectly ligitimate, to starve, beat, threaten with dogs, degrade, insult religious beliefs are some kind of game and even fun.

When they address these issues it's usually some kind of jovial atmosphere, and of course if caught, they simply move down the chain of command and inflict some underling of the lowest order with a Kangaroo Court charade.

It would be easy to prove that the Bush Administration and especially Rumsfeld have committed war crimes, but since this administration has spent billions and billions of dollars on the military Industrial complex our country has more invested in our military that the gross national product of even larger countries, and is more that all the military budgets of the entire world combined.

Knowing this, they have no fear of being held liable for their actions.

But there is hope, and the Scooter Libby case shows that there still are laws and persons that will use them to defend all of us from the actions of what appear to be insane individuals like Rumsfeld and others in the Bush administration.

They CAN be held accountable, and this is what must be passed from Citizen to Citizen - evidence can be collected from many sources, including not only those near to these madmen and traitors, but through dilligent research.

The people can change the actions of these brutes.

Takebackthemedia.com working with hundreds of online activists forced CNN to add 700 words they'd removed from a Hans Blix report on their website regarding Weapons of Mass Destruction. It only took one afternoon to show CNN that the Majority of Americans want the Whole Truth and nothing but the truth, and that we were Watching and paying attention.

Rumsfeld is now claiming that the Abu Gharib photos just released by Australian media are just the same old tired photos of TORTURE we'd seen before.

When the UN called for the immediate shut down of the Guantanamo Torture Camp the Bush administration sent our their head liar, Scott McClellan to create the impression that Rights Groups hadn't even visited the prison camp, and therefore had no basis to demand it's closure.

Asked the same sort of questions, Rumsfeld slipped and mentioned that the Rights groups had demanded to speak to the prisoners and then using the standard sealed off "circular argument" so critical to the way the Bush administration does business, when asked WHY he didn't allow the Right's groups to speak to the prisoners, Rumsfeld responded with,

"These prisoners have been trained to lie so it would have been of little use to have them interviewed by these so called Right's organizations..."

The same man who once described the location of the Weapons of Mass Destruction as being right where we thought they were, "east, west, north and south of Tikrit..." had spoken again.

Rumsfeld is just as guilty as Libby.

They all are.

This war did not happen in a vaccum, it was a cold, clinical exercise in media and citizen manipulation by some of the best minds in the country, and some of the worst.

The worst are the people like Rumsfeld, who clearly do not have the growth and health of our nation in mind. They are here to get rich.

People like Scooter Libby are here to gain power and wealth as well, and hopefully he is the pawn that needs to be removed from the game to make it possible to legally gain a clear path to the "King", "Knights", and "Rooks" so that a checkmate will stop their madness once and for all.
