Prince of Darkness resigns
Richard Perle, an important right-wing ideologue and the man widely believed to have been the architect behind the current war on Iraq, has resigned from his position as chairman of the Defense Policy Board. He will remain a member of the board, which is an important advisory panel for defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld..
Perle has recently been accused of mixing business and politics. While rejecting the accusations, he has argued that the negative attention has made it difficult to do his job.
Perle was a staunch opponent to any arms reduction treaties with the Soviet Union during the Reagan years, giving him the nickname "Prince of Darkness."
