"Stuff happens"

America is the occupying power of Iraq. It has legal obligations, and one of them is to secure mass graves and not to simply dismiss looting, as Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld did, with his shameful toss-off line: "Stuff happens." People expect more from us. The U.S. military executed its war plan with great efficiency and decency. For that, most Iraqis are grateful, and every American can be proud. But when it comes to securing the peace, either there was no plan, or those executing it simply did not have the manpower or know-how to pull it off.
