Oct 13th, 2014 - 01:55 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Why would another financing option for countries “undercut” anything? Firstly, I thought these despicable Anglos were for capitalism, in which case they should welcome another competitor in the marketplace.
Second, notice how the cupid Anglos are not concerned about the Asian nations, but about THEIR “banks” being undercut. I think that should be more than enough proof about how much they really care about Asia.
IMF, World Bank, etc, etc, etc are USA imperialist tools that Argentina has rejected and more and more are rejecting. More evidence of the justified, well-due decline of that evil country.
Is ARGENTINA also going to reject the “ Imperialist tool” of China?

Oct 13th, 2014 - 10:58 pm - Link - Report abuse 0'despicable Anglos”............first of all, you big-footed pseudo dick-tionary, Anglo means English.....not American....
Second, why is everyone who doesn't agree with your narrow views, have to be despicable ?? But you're right, I think Argentina should embrace China's 'tool'.....after all , only God knows how many Cristinita has already embraced while performing her duties ...
Firstly, Anglo is English, and American, and South African, and Jamaican, and Irish, and Scottish, and Belizean, etc. In Argentina it is.
Oct 14th, 2014 - 02:49 am - Link - Report abuse 0Second, I take the view of the Anglos: anyone who doesn't agree with their worldview, is a cvnt, etc.
3 Aackk !!!
Oct 14th, 2014 - 05:06 am - Link - Report abuse 0Jack,
You made jest of the wonderful Kristanita!!!
Ooo, now you shall incur the wrath of Nostrils.., LOL !!!
I think that really hit home with him - his beloved, Cristina, 'on her knees', not to world leaders, but to their Officeboys - visualise that, Nostrils!!
Those big boys in the American Reserves are getting worried.The Rothschilds and company are hitting the panick button.They don´t take to kindly to this Chinese taking their money from them...just look what happened to Kennedy when he introduced Executive Order 11110........

Oct 14th, 2014 - 03:16 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Well if you can't tell the difference between Anglos and all those others, it's your problem......But I suppose you DO have the right to live in blissful ignorance.
Take whatever view you want...it isn't going to change the facts.......and, the islands in the South Atlantic will carry on being the Falklands....
“Washington also sees the bank as a political tool for China”
Oct 14th, 2014 - 08:55 pm - Link - Report abuse 0NO!!! Really???
Who would have thought that the Chinese would try to “buy” influence in the region by getting it's neighbours to sign up to / contribute to a banjk that it controls?
Come on people!!! open your eyes!!
“But if Washington persuades South Korea and Australia to abstain, it would all but ensure membership in the bank would be limited to smaller countries, depriving it of the prestige and respectability the Chinese seek.”
Oct 16th, 2014 - 07:42 am - Link - Report abuse 0Interesting that it might be Australia that gives it prestige and respectability.
I think Australia will sign up because it is better to be in on the ground floor of institutions to shape them than outside looking in.
Interesting that the announcement will probably be made by China at the APEC meeting in China. APEC was started by Australia back in the late 80s.
Outward looking obviously works for Australia.
