Rumsfeld and the Lack of Planning in Iraq

At the U.S. Army or Corps level, Civil Affairs/Military Government (G5) has the mission of, among other things, administering the military occupation when enemy territory has been overrun. This means that the G5 Office is to ensure or minimize insurgency in the occupied territory. The importance of this activity for the Army is attested to by its being part of the General Staff, the same as Personnel, Intelligence, Operations and Logistics.
The lack of planning for the occupation of Iraq has led to the insurgency having its present strength, killing over 2500 U. S. military personnel.
According to retiring Brigadier General Mark Scheid, Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld specifically forbade any postwar planning for Iraq, threatening to fire anyone who even discussed such planning.
Secretary Rumsfeld has the major responsibility for over 2500 American fatalities. He must resign.
