3rd day into Operation Sidewinder
Iraq is not a quagmire: Rumsfeld
"Our goal is to get the terrorists out of Afghanistan, get the Saddam Hussein regime out of Iraq; if you want to call that a quagmire, do it. I don't."
Rumsfeld's remarks came as U.S. forces entered their third day of a major campaign named "Operation Sidewinder" to quell Iraqi resistance.
