Jerusalem----April 2.....The American Jewish Congress today congratulated Paul Wolfowitz on his election as the president of the World Bank. “

In Israel, The Jerusalem Post had selected Paul Wolfowitz as its Man of the Year for 2002. The Post stated: "On September 15, 2001, at a meeting in Camp David, Wolfowitz advised President George W. Bush to skip Kabul and train American guns on Baghdad. In March 2003, he got his wish.

"When President Bush says, "America will not permit the world's most dangerous regimes to threaten us with the world's most destructive weapons" -- that's Wolfowitz talking. When the president calls for "a new Arab charter that champions internal reform, greater political participation, economic openness and free trade" -- that's Wolfowitz's talking, too..."

I highly doubt it, the war in Iraq has harmed Israel more than it has helped it.

When Bush says something - it's Bush talking, not Wolfowitz or anyone else.
That's leadership and resolve, things a liberal apparently can't understand.
And I understand your confusion in why we would want to try and stabilize the Middle East with a democratic type of government - after all, the Middle East is soooo far away - it couldn't possible be a threat to the United States.

Keeping Israel funded to tune of Billions each year does nothing for average Americans ..Israels whole existence is to act has a destabilizing force in the middle east this justifies spikes at the pump...that all Americans are all to well aware of.

You are deluded and possibly dangerous, but Democrats are usually pretty good about debating rather than action so I guess we're OK.
Probably took one too many whuppings from your cop cousin... waaah that's why ya hate him so.

No, neocons felt that destroying the most powerful Arab country would benefit Israel.
