The wolf at the World Bank

There seems to be something of a revolt on foot at the World Bank against its Bush-appointed president, Paul Wolfowitz...

Now, having sown the wind, Wolfowitz has reaped the whirlwind. The controversy over how his girlfriend landed a good job and huge salary increases has brought to the surface long-submerged but deep-seated resentment from almost every quarter.

Perhaps I'm too naive and should be more realistic and stop questioning authority, but maybe there is something wrong with appointing someone whose last major 'project' has led to the death of around 650,000 Iraqis?
