Wolfowitz and this shameless adminstration
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6575747.stm

The pressure on World Bank chief Paul Wolfowitz has increased after the bank's directors vow to deal "urgently" with the scandal enveloping him.

The bank's board of directors have said they will convene a group to deal with the matter, though no timetable has been set and the outcome is uncertain.

On Thursday, Mr Wolfowitz was told directly by one of his two deputies, Graeme Wheeler from New Zealand, to step down at a session attended by senior staff, according to sources quoted by French news agency AFP.

Senior managers from Latin America and Asia apparently sided with Mr Wheeler, but officials from the bank's Middle East and Africa division backed Mr Wolfowitz' intentions to stay on as president of the World Bank.

1. Solidarity
"the bank's Middle East and Afica division backed Mr. Wolfowitz..." His mistress, Shaha Riza, is a Libyan by birth.
