jdobbin Posted April 13, 2007 Report Posted April 13, 2007 http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=206...OIeh7I&refer=us I am still not exactly sure what happened here but it certainly looks wrong. Shaha Riza, the woman romantically involved with World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz, said she has been ``victimized'' for accepting a deal to transfer out of the bank.``I would like to reiterate that I did not wish to leave the bank and did not, and do not expect any special considerations,'' Riza, 52, wrote in a letter to board members that was among 101 pages of documents released today. World Bank directors found that Wolfowitz personally dictated the details of Riza's temporary assignment to the State Department along with an unusually large raise that has angered employees and sparked calls for his resignation. The directors today said they would make a speedy decision on his future. Quote

Figleaf Posted April 14, 2007 Report Posted April 14, 2007 Wolfowitz... Wolfowitz ... where do I know that name from? Oh, wait, wasn't he part of the cabal that led the U.S. into illegal war in Iraq, on false premises and totally for nothing, at a cost of thousands of US military lives (and counting)? And now he's buying nookie with World Bank funds? That's great. Quote
