Rumsfeld helped rescuers in the Pentagon parking lot on 9/11

[spotbird]

It was the http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/series/witness/4700/facts">strangest thing. There were hundreds, if not thousands young strong people on the scene, more than willing to help and who weren't in charge of the Department of Defense, but with the country under attack the Defense Secretary thought his top priority was to assist the injured.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/metro/daily/sep01/attack.html">Craig Quigley,deputy assistant secretary of defense for public affairs, said at an afternoon news conference that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld was in his office at the time of the crash. Rumsfeld ran to the site and helped with those who were injured, Quigley said, then went to the command center at the interior of the building.

This is the only photo I could find:



There was no way to know whether the the attack was over, or so America was told.

4. What's dumb is 'celebrating' 911

and glorifying IN ANY WAY the people who allowed it to happen. Rummy is a scumbag war criminal, and a worthless excuse for a human being, plain and simple. Welcome to DU.

5. Rumsfeld is a war criminal. He is directly responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths.

Welcome to DU...
