Check this out: World Bank-UK Policy Paper-Binladen Group....

From the new World Media Watch. Full excerpts and links up now at http://www.zianet.com/insightanalytical


Think about Wolfowitz named for the World Bank. Look at this UK policy paper in story 1. Then look who's getting World Bank money to build airports....the Bin Laden Group. Coincidence???

1//The Independent, UK--AID FOR POOR NATIONS ‘SHOULD BE LINKED TO DEFENCE NEEDS’ (Aid for some of the poorest countries should be linked to their defence and security needs, a Government paper says. … But the report, Fighting Poverty to Build a Safer World, produced by the Department for International Development, was likely to cause alarm in non-governmental aid organisations over concern that aid money could be switched to defence spending by poor countries. … The paper calls for changes in the approach by the World Bank to "respond positively when partner governments request that the security sector is included in a World Bank public expenditure review.")



2//Arab News, Saudi Arabia--BINLADEN GROUP WINS NEW AIRPORT PROJECTS (The Saudi Binladen Group has won the contracts to implement two airport projects in Egypt and Yemen financed by the World Bank, Al-Eqtisadiah business daily reported yesterday. … Egypt’s Minister of International Cooperation Fayza Abul Naga said the World Bank has approved loans worth $335 million to finance the development projects for Cairo and Sharm El-Sheikh airports. Egypt’s Prime Minister Dr. Ahmed Nazif met with World Bank President James Wolfensohn in October last year and held talks about economic cooperation between the two sides.)

Makes me wonder if the World Bank will now be loaning money to poor countries to build air bases which can then be annexed by US aircraft... sort of a "let them pay for our infrastructure" routine....

Also wonder if this is going to happen to predominantly African countries in the future.

for the World Bank back in October. When he's in place, you'll see Britain under Blair (if he's reelected) working hand in glove with Bushco even more, I figure. And Bushco's buddies, the Binladens, are already profiting from the World Bank....and will do even better...

I'm just guessing, but the way things are goin.......

eom
