Wolfowitz served as Deputy Secretary of Defense from 2001-05. During the immediate aftermath of the [[September 11 attacks]] he, along with his superior [[Donald Rumsfeld]], advocated the expansion of the so-called [[War on Terror]] to include Saddam Hussein's Iraq as a target. In light of opposition to these proposals by other administration officials such as Colin Powell, during the course of 2002 they participated in a series of secret meetings in which they development a military doctrine centered on pre-emptive warfare. This became known as the "Bush Doctrine."[Kampfner, John (2003). ''Blair's wars''. Simon and Schuster. p. 156. ISBN 978-0-7432-4829-7.][https://www.newyorker.com/archive/2003/05/12/030512fa_fact] As part of that development process, they were placed in charge by President Bush of the Office of Special Plans, a special Pentagon office designed specifically to collect and interpret intelligence regarding Iraq without the involvement of the CIA.[Stone, Roger (2016). ''The Bush Crime Family: The Inside Story of an American Dynasty''. Skyhorse. p. 333. ISBN 978-1-5107-2140-1.]
