Former head of reconstruction in Iraq, Gen. Jay Garner tells Rumsfeld in a private meeting that the U.S. has made "three tragic decisions" and that disbanding the army was the worst of the three. Garner assures Rumsfeld that there is "still time to rectify" the situation. Rumsfeld responds, "I don't think there is anything we can do, because we are where we are." Garner meets with Bush later that day and says nothing of these tragic errors.
