I must say I find it the least bit ironic that Wolfowitz is heading up the plan to rebuild a mosly Muslim nation.

Ironic is not the word that the Middle East is going to use. It will be a four letter word that begins with F and ends with K.
No-one could fault Paul Wolfowitz's ability to perform the job - he has certainly proven himself to be a capable. But his credentials in the Middle East (especially his links with Israel and his support for the occupation and its methodology) probably make him one of the most detested figures in the Middle Eastern world. This choice will only confirm the charge being levied in some of the more extreme middle-eastern media that the Iraq invasion was part of a quote "US-Zionist Plot".
Surely the US could have found a less contraversial figure...
