To the Editor: I try not to impute malice when mere incompetence can explain the result. Nonetheless, it seems clear that disbanding the Iraqi Army led quickly to an Iraq of armed factions, that is only held together by the American armed presence. Since both Donald Rumsfeld and Robert Gates have endorsed plans for an indefinite U.S. military presence there, I am tempted to see Bremer's actions as a set-up. Then again, one can't discount incompetence.Barry Levine1142 Brown AveLafayette, CA 94549
