[Blunderov] I've never heard of this fellow before, but according to the article @ http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Front_Page/FE21Aa02.html he was/is a militant Zionist, understandable perhaps, in view of the fact that both his parents were killed in the Holocaust.
Less understandable (to me at any rate) is how it was that, given his political background, he came to be in charge of so many important decisions; not all of which seem to have worked out that well.
Best Regards
<excerpt> Pentagon's Feith in the eye of another storm By Jim Lobe
WASHINGTON - Although it will take weeks, if not months, to sort out precisely who was responsible for what increasingly appears to have been the systemic abuse by US soldiers of Iraqi detainees, it should be no surprise if Under Secretary of Defense for Policy Douglas Feith is found to have played an important role.
Feith, who according to Bob Woodward's new book Plan of Attack was described by the military commander who led last year's invasion, General Tommie Franks, as "the f****ng stupidest guy on the face of the Earth", has been at the center of virtually everything else that has gone wrong in Iraq, so there is no reason to think he was very far from this one. </excerpt>
