Donald Rumsfeld was the Secretary of Defense in the George W. Bush Administration at the time of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. As Secretary of Defense, Rumsfeld was responsible for overseeing the Department of Defense and the military's response to the 9/11 attacks.
In the immediate aftermath of the attacks, Rumsfeld was involved in key decisions regarding the military response, including the deployment of U.S. military forces to Afghanistan to pursue the terrorists responsible for the 9/11 attacks. He also played a role in the development and implementation of the broader War on Terror and the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
While Rumsfeld's role in the response to the 9/11 attacks and the War on Terror has been widely debated and criticized, it is clear that he was a central figure in the U.S. government's response to the 9/11 attacks and the broader War on Terror.
