Yeah, I know this is a couple days old, but just to make sure you didn't miss it...
Paul Wolfowitz is the single individual most responsible for the Iraq invasion. He convinced Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, et al, that it was a no-brainer. And that we really didn't need to spend much time worrying about post-victory occupation.
Wolfowitz, consequently, is reputed to be the person most despised by the U.S. military command. (You see, the generals really DO care if their soldiers and Marines are killed).
Ultimately, it was too much, and he had to go. But rather than being sent to a prison cell, he landed as President of the World Bank. It's an agency designed to combat world poverty, but in reality is just as rich and lofty and self-important as it sounds.
As such, Wolfie now makes a lot more money than he did in the U.S. government, and has to do important things like he's shown doing here...taking his shoes off to visit a mosque in the Middle East.
Only problem is, Wofie's got holes in his socks.
Matches his logic.
