BBC: Rumsfeld resignation calls grow

BBC NEWS | Americas | Rumsfeld resignation calls grow: "Pressure is growing on US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, with more retired generals calling for him to resign over the Iraq war.

The White House has said it is happy with the way Mr Rumsfeld is handling his job and the situation in Iraq.

But the backing comes as the number of retired generals calling for him to be replaced has risen to six.

It is being described as a rebellion led by those who know Mr Rumsfeld's handling of the war from the inside."

While it is not appropriate (by military standards) for current officials to call for his resignation, I think the number of retired officers doing so is telling.
