Rumsfeld and the DoD are at it again

The Dept of Defense plans to move itself into the intelligence-gathering business. The plans include turning U.S. soldiers into 'boots-on-the-ground' agents. In fact, the DoD is willing to go so far as to instigate battles or even start a war in order to gather intelligence information from the resulting conflict. Is it just me, or does this plan seem just a bit askew?

Read Bob Herbert's commentary related to this plan in the 27 Dec NYTimes.
