DEFENSE SECRETARY RUMSFELD AND GENERAL MYERS HEAD FOR PRESS BRIEFING, 2003-04-03 (photo)

U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld (R), Navy Capt. T. L. McCreary (C) and Air Force General, Richard B. Myers (L), Chairman of the Joints Chiefs of Staff, head to the Pentagon briefing room to address the media, April 3, 2003. A grim Rumsfeld rejected on Thursday any effort by other countries to broker an end to the Iraq war by allowing President Saddam Hussein to leave the country. "There's not a chance that there is going to be a deal. It doesn't matter who proposes it, there will not be one," Rumsfeld told reporters at the Pentagon as U.S. troops pressed against southern Baghdad two weeks into an invasion to overthrow Saddam.
