I wonder what the anti allied brigade will make of this quote:
"I think all foreigners should stop interfering in the internal
affairs of Iraq."
- U.S. Deputy Defence Secretary, Paul Wolfowitz

This statement was not made to the "anti allied brigade", though presented out of context as it is, it could be read that way. But let's put his words in context... (Bold mine.)
Quote:In comments aimed at neighbours hoping to influence events in Iraq and suspected foreign fighters who may have come to the country to attack American troops, Wolfowitz told a news conference in this northern Iraqi city that the toppling of Hussein would benefit the whole region.
"I think all foreigners should stop interfering in the internal affairs of Iraq," Wolfowitz said on Monday.
He was touring the country to meet American 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. Some people are afraid of that influence and they are targeting us."
