Perle resigns Defense Policy Board WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Richard Perle, a strong conservative "hawk" on Iraq, has resigned as chairman of the Defense Policy Board, an independent group that advises the defense secretary on policy matters. Critics had said Perle had a conflict of interest when he took a position representing the telecommunications firm Global Crossing, which lobbies the Pentagon. But Perle, a former assistant secretary of defense, will keep a seat on the board. He was appointed to the chairmanship by Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld.
