The perfectly cynical cherry on top is the fact that the reason Wolfie's old bosses, Chimperor Bush and Darth Cheney, sent troops into Afghanistan in the first place is that the Taliban were hiding Al-Qaida, and they had to do something after having been caught asleep at the switch on 9/11/01.

He also said 9-11 was a wake up call for military interventionism. Wolfowitz and Rumsfeld were two of the signers of the Statement of Principles for the now defunct Project for the New American Century and the primary promoters of invading Iraq. Wolfowitz is a chickenhawk who thinks the U.S. should have a huge military presence permanently stationed around the world so we can quickly engage in preemptive wars.
