Bush and Co. ignored warnings of roadside bombs
The recent Pentagon Inspector General report that postulated before the war that roadside bombs (i.e.d.'s) would be a tactic used by an insurgency. The bureaucrats that ignored this intelligence are guilty of negligence for the thousands of soldiers who have been killed or wounded for inadequate protection from i.e.d.'s. Rumsfeld tried to run this war on the cheap without adequate preparation. Lack of proper body armor and a paucity of up-armored vehicles have been well documented since the beginning of the war. What did they figure? That a wounded soldier was less expensive than a MRAP (mine resistant vehicle)? The thousands of wounded soldiers and the families of the dead should sue the American government for negligence.
