HYPOCRISY OF PAUL WOLFOWITZ AT THE WORLD BANK

Here's Paul Wolfowitz, former neo-con-in-chief and chief engine for the war in Iraq, pushing for the World Bank to punish countries by denying World Bank aid where he suspected corruption. This is the very same Paul Wolfowitz who set up his girl friend in the State Department at a salary and benefits higher than that of Condoleeza Rice. This case should set the defining standards for hypocrisy. The American diplomat punishes poor African nations on the verge of starvation with cessation of World Bank aid, but helps his girl friend obtain a cushy deal from the State Department by using his political insider clout.
