That’s our Wolfie!
9/11 Commission Report, page 259:
Tenet told us that in his world “the system was blinking red.” By late July (2001,) Tenet said, it could not “get any worse.” Not everyone was convinced. Some asked whether all these threats might just be deception. On June 30, the SEIB contained an article titled “Bin Ladin Threats Are Real.” Yet Hadley told Tenet in July that Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz questioned the reporting. Perhaps Bin Ladin was trying to study U.S. reactions. Tenet replied that he had already addressed the Defense Department’s questions on this point; the reporting was convincing. [Emphasis added]

Shorter Wolfowitz: Don’t confuse me with facts when I’ve already made up my mind.

Anyone seen F 911, where Wolfawiz spits in his hand to wipe in his hair, which is messed up? Dude looks like a troll of some type! Think he does it twice with the help of an aide!

From the PNAC manifesto, signed by Wolfowitz;
“the process of transformation, even if it brings revolutionary change, is likely to be a long one, absent some catastrophic and catalyzing event – like a new Pearl Harbor.”
It was hard work, but they got what they asked for.
