Another high-ranking military official has called for the resignation of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. In an interview with CNN, Maj. Gen. John Batiste, who commanded the 1st Infantry Division in Iraq said: “I believe we need a fresh start in the Pentagon.” Batiste’s comments come just days after former Lt. Gen. Gregory Newbold published an essay saying Rumsfeld should be replaced. In all, four former senior military officers have called for Rumsfeld’s resignation during the last month.
