The ousting of Wolfowitz from the World Bank took a bizarre U-turn with Wolfowitz challenging the bank's directors to vote him out, knowing that the United States would oppose the move. Previously, Wolfowitz had been doing everything in his power to prevent such a vote. In effect, bank officials said, he is using the fear among some European leaders at the bank of a possible rupture with the Bush administration.
