Paul Wolfowitz is infamous for having been one of the main architects of the Iraq aggression. He is now president of the World Bank. One of his predecessors at the Bank was Robert McNamara, one a main architects of another disastrous US war. I wonder why it's believed that guys who conceive and execute hideously destructive wars that cost thousands of lives and incalculable damage have business running an organization whose main job is make things BETTER for less developed countries.
The Iraq debacle is a bad idea, poorly executed. One of the reasons it was poorly executed is because of the administration's style: listen to whatever panders to your preconceived notions and ignore the rest.
Sadly, it looks like Wolfowitz has brought that same style of mismanagement to the World Bank.
