Former U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld has joined
the Hoover Institution at Stanford University as a visiting fellow
and will serve on a task force focused on issues pertaining to
ideology and terror, the California think tank said on Friday.
Rumsfeld was one of the top Bush administration officials involved
in responding to the September 11 attacks and subsequent wars
in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Democrats critical of the Republican administration and some
former high-ranking military officers charged his leadership of
the Pentagon contributed to a botched occupation of Iraq. He resigned
as secretary of defense in November 2006.
Rumsfeld's experience will assist the Hoover Institution's research
into terrorism, said institute director John Raisian.

"I have asked Don to join the distinguished group of scholars
that will pursue new insights on the direction of thinking that
the United States might consider going forward," said Raisian.
Rumsfeld, a former congressional representative, NATO ambassador
and White House chief of staff for President Gerald Ford, has
served on the conservative Hoover Institution's board of overseers.
