Keir Starmer wants Britain to be both an "AI superpower" and a "clean energy superpower". He can't have it both ways, says Ben Pile. AI is hugely energy intensive and inconsistent with the path Net Zero is leading us down.

Dump World Bank bonds!

category international | anti-capitalism | opinion/analysis author Saturday March 19, 2005 19:22author by stop world bank Report this post to the editors

Paul Wolfowitz is a war criminal-why is he going to head the World Bank?

The World Bank is funded by the sale of bonds-the wolrd must dis-invest from the World Bank with a war criminal at the helm!

You would probably count Robert McNamara as a war criminal too (Vietnam) and he headed the World Bank ....

So why shouldn't Wolfowitz be given a crack at the whip ?

Is it because he's Jewish you don't like him ?
Are you anti-semitic ?

He's been put forward as a candidate. I hope Bono gets it myself - then you'll have another moan and call for a boycott of U2 records because he lives in Killiney...

Yes he's still only a candidate, but if he suceeds, the alienation of the US the world will be complete. A Zionist war criminal as head of the World Bank?

Would anyone agree to Saddam being given this post?

Bush wants him to suceed to punish mostly the Europeans, and to and expand the US/Israeli/British empire

Imagine putting that neo-con, zionist lunatic in charge of anything. If he was in charge of collecting the trollies in the carpark of Dunnes hed still start absolute murder, the headcase.

Since assuming power in the US hes helped wreck Iraq and slaughter 100s of 1000s. And now hell be in charge of the World Bank ??Jesus this is unbelievable.

The upside is this ideoloigcally driven headbanger will probably ensure half the world goes bananas and rises up against the mad policies hell no doubt persue. Iraq will never be the same, and neither will the world be when this guy has finished.

He even looks like the spawn of Beelzebub. Theres definitely something well creepy and sinister about him.

If theres one boyo guaranteed to start an all out armed rebellion somewhere against himself, its himself.

Jaysus thats mad.

during his time at the pentagon they LOST over 50 aircraft ... not shot down,,, just GONE... nobody can say where they went.... not the type of guy you want running a bank then eh?

"not the type of guy you want running a bank"

On the contrary, based on that track record his career prospects with AIB, BoI, National Irish or any other financial institution like that would be quite healthy ..... just as long as he kept away from surfing the porn sites during office hours ...
