by Patrick J. Buchanan – September 12, 1997

The IMF and World Bank are replacing direct foreign aid
as the back door for the global burglars who are
looting America for the benefit of foreign, and even
hostile, regimes…Little noticed this summer, China, the
greatest persecutor of Christians on Earth, emerged
as “No. 1 Son” of the World Bank, as it raked in $3
billion in loans…to a Beijing regime that uses its hard
currency to buy Russian missiles to target American
warships…China is making its own $120 million loan to
Panama…to buy influence and pay for strategic
facilities at both ends of a Panama Canal that passes
from U.S. control in two years…
