Rumsfeld: His Rise, Fall, and Catastrophic Legacy
Andrew Cockburn
A thread on #Rumsfeld's "unknown unknowns speech," which is widely misunderstood. (I write about it in my forthcoming book, Spies, Lies, & Algorithms). Rumsfeld was mocked. Critics had a field day. Some even set it his remarks to music. But Rumsfeld was onto something important. https://t.co/YTuotBa695
