LA Times reports that Bremer requested that Bush and Rumsfeld triple the number of U.S. troops in Iraq. He states there were never enough American troops in Iraq to stabilize the situation.
No one replied to his request.
This certainly clarifies the responsibility for the incompetence with which the Iraq War has been managed directly on Bush and Rumsfeld. The Iraq War has been managed with all the incompetcnce on display when FEMA failed the Gulf Coast and New Orlesns, and it came right out of the White House.
