Wolfowitz picked for arms control panel

WASHINGTON - Former World Bank chief Paul Wolfowitz will head a high-level advisory panel on arms control and disarmament, the State Department said Thursday.
Recall, this is the guy who assured us that...
- Iraq has no history of ethnic strife
- Iraq can afford to pay for its own reconstruction
- Shinseki's estimate of troop requirements to stabilize post-war Iraq was "way off the mark" (Shinseki suggested "several hundred thousand" troops needed)
He was a strong advocate of going to war with Iraq (... in response to 9/11!!!).
Why am I not feeling warm and fuzzy about Wolfie's return to government, dealing with arms control and disarmament?
Readers with long memories may recall that I've previously addressed this issue in the context of an admittedly farfetched "conspiracy theory" suggesting that W has no intention of leaving office next January!... Bringing Wolfowitz to Dept of State fits in perfectly with this narrative.
