...think it's arrogant for us to walk into a country where we are just beginning to operate and tell that country how to operate."

"It was condescending and a little bit cruel," says Barry McCaffrey, a retired four-star Army general. A month later, Rumsfeld loyalists made it clear that Army Secretary Thomas White, a former Enron executive who vainly tried...
