Ledeen's War Cabinet

Michael Ledeen gives his wishlist for a new "War Cabinet" in the National Review. His picks:

State: Zell Miller
Defence: Jim Woolsey
NSC: John Bolton or Paul Wolfowitz

For Ledeen, this is the beginning of necessary housecleaning that will replace many of the top tiers of the national security apparatus:

The president must have the advice of people who will not shirk from the unpleasant tasks before us, and who are capable of leading their agencies to maximum performance.

Unfortunately this probably means a wholesale housecleaning. If it were up to me, I would urge the president to replace the secretaries of state and defense, the national-security adviser, and the heads of the FBI and the DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency). All are exceptionally gifted and patriotic people. All have worked very hard. But all have failed, for different reasons and to different degrees. There is a very narrow window of time to make wholesale changes, and I hope the president will seize his moment.

Ledeen's choices are interesting, although I think the only one with a real possibility is Wolfowitz for National Security Advisor.
