Donald Rumsfeld goes on to the unknown unknowns

From Jamie McIntyre:
The title comes from his famous description during a 2002 Pentagon briefing, in which Rumsfeld opined on the shortcomings of intelligence regarding Iraq’s alleged weapons of mass destruction.
“There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns — the ones we don't know we don't know,” he said.
Rumsfeld died today at age 88. Read more here: https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/defense-national-security/donald-rumsfeld-youngest-and-oldest-us-defense-secretary-dies-at-88?utm_source=browser_push&utm_medium=onesignal&utm_campaign=push_notifications
