Wolfowitz, one of the architects of the U.S.-led invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein (news - web sites), told a news conference in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul that Washington would, however, welcome outside help.


"I think all foreigners should stop interfering in the internal affairs of Iraq," said Wolfowitz, who is touring the country to meet U.S. troops and Iraqi officials.


"Those who want to come and help are welcome," he said. "Those who come to interfere and destroy are not."

1. so Americans are now native Iraqis?

How is what we're doing not considered interfering?

4. Iraq is the 51st state of the Union

Wolfowitz is beyond belief, second only to Rumsfeld when it comes to hubris.

5. What a hoot ....

... kinda like a departure from reality for Wolfowitz. In the hands of an expect 'interviewer' Wolfowitz would spill his uncontrolled, unedited and unscripted inner most thoughts. Obviously he's in Iraq to get some 'ground truth' about the sticky deal he got US in. He must be getting pressure for an exit strategy.

6. hey mr. wolfowitz-

"I think all foreigners should stop interfering in the internal affairs of Iraq," said Wolfowitz, who is touring the country to meet U.S. troops and Iraqi officials.





"Those who want to come and help are welcome," he said. "Those who come to interfere and destroy are not."





"I think our success will have a positive influence not just on Iraq but on the whole region," he said. "Some people are afraid of that influence and they are targeting us."

7. When did Iraq become a US territory or state?

These criminals are just amazing!

Do they even LISTEN to what they themselves are saying?

Do they UNDERSTAND on iota of what they themselves are saying?

I want out of this bizarro universe!
