Report this evening from the Financial Times re the unusually familiar melodrama that the international scoundrel Wolfowitz — last seen at the DOD wrecking the planet with his kindred of Cain the Neocons — is now leading a coup d’etat at the serenely sluggish and strangely non-transparent yet unnoticed World Bank. First reports from the backstairs where these sorts of coups get played out — daggers, emails, Walsingham codes — is that Wolfowitz’s sinister scheme involves bringing in political ops from the baldly Republican administration in Washington and letting them vet the senior help that have been selflessly involved with enterprises that appear wildly overbudget and unexplained. Wolfowitz is said to have approved the use of accountants to study the books. Do gentlemen examine other gentlemen’s books??? Veteran World Bank international civil servants are said to be in such disrepair that they are blogging their upset in foreign languages.

Prepare for the worst — see key words: vanished billions, mystery, U.S. Attorney.
