Washington, DC | Sunday, July 23, 2006 | The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) will file a federal lawsuit tomorrow claiming that Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld failed to fulfill their constitutional and professional obligations and protect US citizens in a crisis or time of war.

In the lawsuit, ADC alleges that the defendants placed US citizens in peril by not taking all possible steps to secure the safety and well being of US citizens in Lebanon. Further, the lawsuit asks the Federal Court to issue an order compelling the Secretary of State and Secretary of Defense to request a ceasefire and to stop any shipments of weapons or any other military support to Israel during the evacuation of all US citizens out of Lebanon.

I agree. The Dept of State and Defense should have taken more active steps in removing Hezballah long before Israel had to go in.

Wait, thats not what they meant?
