He's the Decider, did'nt you know

World Bank, May 30 IPS Global Economy Director Sarah Anderson explores Robert Zoellick's hardball tactics, which ought to have made President Bush pick someone else to most likely become the next World Bank president in this Foreign Policy In Focus commentary. Also in Common Dreams, AlterNet and TomPaine.com.
May 19 "...Reason #6: He made the difficult concept of corruption real to ordinary people." - IPS Director John Cavanagh serves up the Top 10 Reasons Why Paul Wolfowitz Was a Great World Bank President in AlterNet.

Sarah Anderson asks: "Is a tone-deaf, name-calling, steely opportunist a good choice to lead the World Bank? The Bank's official mission, after all, is to fight global poverty, not promote US corporate interests. And after the Wolfowitz uproar, one might have expected the Bush administration to pick a more genteel and broad-minded successor to lead this global institution."
