World should divest from World Bank Bonds

We will we soon no longer have to fear the Wolfowitz, but the World Bank is still a majour U.S.-backed wolf at the world's door
The World Bank/IMF and WTO exist for one primary mission-to facilitate the domination of the world by U.S.-style corporate capitalism. Some call it the "New World Order" and have long speculated about who is behind it-but the answer is found in the groups that Paul Wolfowitz, and G.W. Bush, Dick Cheney and others within that regime affiliate with and are backed by-namely U.S. Christian fanatics. The economic policies being foisted on the world by the World Bank/IMF/WTO are one and the same as those of these U.S. religious extremists:

The rest of the world needs to stop financing the half-baked economic ideas of U.S. religious nutters wanting the "Second Coming" and "Rapture" to occure. We need to urge our universities, labour unions, municiple councils and other institutions to divest from World Bank bonds NOW!

Wolfowitz has been replaced at the World Bank
03.07.2007 16:20
World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz has just been replaced by another neo-con, Robert Zoellick.
Here's an article by a former Oxfam staff member (now at the UNDP), which demonstrates that the appointment of Zoellick is yet another disaster for the poor:
Furthermore, he was one of the signatories to the 1998 Project for a New American Century (PNAC) letter which advocated war against Iraq:
(outgoing WB president Wolfowitz was also a signatory)
and he also tried to push GM crops/foods on the EU:
and he was involved with Enron as a shareholder and consultant.
So, he's someone who advocates "free trade" (with associated strings attached), is pro-war and pro-big business.
Therefore definitely NOT the right man for the job and certainly not someone who can rebuild the badly damaged reputation of the World Bank.
What happened to an open, transparent and democratic selection process which emphasises the candidate's merits, rather than political connections, as the criteria for the job?
