Well, these remarks could be taken out of context. But if they're not, then the world has just become a more dangerous place.
The world became a more dangerous place because of 9/11. That event convinced Americans to listen to guys like this. If anything the world is safer now, because we're getting smarter about what's going on.

Somebody better listen to Wolfowitz, given that he is Undersecretary of Defense, the second highest civilian offical in the Pentagon.

OH please GePap, Wolfowitz's position isn't one of power. He certainly doesn't represent what Bush, Cheney, or Rumsfeld think. Wolfowitz represnts a rogue element of this administration, and frankly, we're just glad Saddam is gone. REMEMBER 9-11

that means that i can breathe easier for the next two weeks, since i'm posting from skorea right now...
Yep. South Korea is going to have a nuclear-armed North Korea as a neighbor for YEARS to come. I'm sure NK will be just as responsible with their weapons as the US, Russia, France, Britain, India, Pakistan and Israel are.

Cool combo, Sava. Ten thousand artillery pieces combined with nuclear weapons, all pointing in one southerly direction ... my, what has SK ever done to threaten NK? Last time I checked, it was NK armies that ravaged SK ... oh, yes, it's the big-bad United States. If we'd just leave, a united and peaceful Korea could be reborn from the ashes of division!

I thought this was all about liberating the oppressed Iraqi people from a tolitarian regime.
Did you believe it one second ?

NK is not going to pre-emptively nuke SK.
NK is sees SK as a US puppet regime. Perhaps you need to learn about the history of Korea and how they view any foreign powers meddling in their peninsula. They make no distinction between the Mongols, the Japanese of WW2, and the Americans.
In terms of leaving, I didn't comment on that. So don't put words in my mouth. Thanks.
Take a damn chill pill, Sava. Trust me, boy, if I were being "serious" about it, I wouldn't have conveniently included the seemingly obligatory that some folks need to understand the distinction between serious and non-serious posts.

Yeah, many, many years ago! He was going after it since Gulf War I!! That doesn't mean he's always taken seriously. THIS war was more Rumsfeld and Cheney, and you know that.
Uh, then why was he made the number two man in DoD? (and the real policy shot-caller behind the scenes, SecDef's are usually marketing and PR guys in front of Congress and the press)
This war and the whole approach to the ME is Wolfowitz all the way, baby.

Never hear of political appointments to appease other people? It's a nod to his father's team... and appeased the far right at the time (along with Ashcroft).
