Rumsfeld On 2006 Election: "The Correction For That…Is An Attack"
An ongoing exploration of the documents related to the Pentagon’s "message force multipliers" program has unearthed a clip of former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld suggesting that America, having voted the Democrats back into Congressional power, could benefit from suffering another terrorist attack, and doing so in the presence of the very same military analysts who went on to provide commentary and analysis of the Iraq War.

Link- Hour long Rumsfeld audio of meeting with analysts
just listening to some of that audio now, Rumsfeld mentioned al sadr and how the threat from him is “less military” and more “demonstrations and getting mobs on the street, preventing something from working”
could benefit from suffering another terrorist attack
Reminds me of what Bush said…and with Rummy standing right next to him, no less…

heres the Rumsfeld bit where he says that another attack would “correct” peoples perception that they were safe-
“Rumsnamara.” What a poignant coin of phrase!
