In an interview with Charlie Rose, Paul Wolfowitz lists three reasons why he thinks much of Africa is on track and moving forward. First is the recognition of the importance of sound economic policy. Jobs created by the private sector are also helping the continent. And the third and most important reason why parts of Africa are finally moving forward according to Wolfowitz — Peace!
Wolfowitz: “Peace is the most important blessing. It is so much better than oil. Oil is more often a curse. Peace is unmitigated good.”







Did Wolfy give a big wink while saying that?
What an asshole.
He is a pathological liar.
I saw his lips move, and you know what that means.
Or maybe he finally grew up.
Peace is the way forward for him…forward toward people not fighting against everything he stands for. “I’m for people not fighting against me” just doesn’t have the same ring to it that “I’m for peace” has.
He should have said “Oil, we don’t need no stinking oil.”
Wolfy for piece, of the action!!
Wolfowitz to iraq: You give us your Oil, we’ll give you some Peace. It’s a great deal. Only a shmuck would pass up this deal! Whaaat, don’t wait, if you don’t take it now, we’ll be offering the same deal to Iran! Whaaaat, don’t give me that look, Iraq, I’m your pal: China is not going to give you a better deal than me … C’mon, it’s a blessing, and a limited time offer: you’d be a real shmuck for refusing it …. Peace is so much better than oil …
Wolfowitz may have a point there. If a country does not have oil, the US will not feel compelled to assist it “achieve a better democracy” and if the US ignores it, peace and prosperity are possible.
Did Charley Rose say, “But if you think peace is the most important blessing…much better than oil, why did you architect the Iraq War?” This is exactly what we’ve been saying about the media! Did he ask this question? Or just let him spout lie? Why was he even being interviewed by Charlie Rose? For damage control for the World Bank corruption?
Well said my friends.
Wolfy, Lich mine tuchus . . .
What a jerk. Give him a gun and send him to Iraq without the body armor, military escort and helicopters. Then he’ll get a taste of the hell he has created for everyone in Iraq, American and Iraqi.
And why is THIS guy on TV? “Conservative” commentator Michael Reagan, promoting the war and death:

Why are these guys on TV? WHO is scheduling Wolfowicz and Reagan to be on TV?
Why aren’t Bernie Sanders and John Conyers or some “progressive” commentators on TV?

AND THEY’RE LINING UP TO BE ON DEMOCRACY NOW!!!!!!!!!
