Frontline presents: Rumsfeld’s War
File Under: Politics
In “Rumsfeld’s War,” FRONTLINE and The Washington Post join forces for the first time to investigate Donald Rumsfeld’s contentious battle with the Pentagon bureaucracy to assert civilian control of the military and remake the way America fights.
This report traces Donald Rumsfeld’s career from his time as an adviser to President Nixon to his rise as the oft-seen and well-known face of the George W. Bush administration during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. In interviews with key administration officials, military leaders, and reporters from The Washington Post, the documentary examines how a secretary of defense bent on reform became a secretary of war accused of ignoring the advice of his generals.
