”The bank is working with law enforcement officials to determine the validity of the threat,” the bank said in a statement. As a precautionary measure, bank group management has decided to close all World Bank group leased and owned buildings in Washington on Friday,” it added. The financial institution, which provides loans to poor countries to fight poverty, is located about a block from White House and employs about 8,000 in at least seven buildings in downtown Washington. The bank’s sister organization, the International Monetary Fund, said it would be open on Friday but told employees they do not have to come in. | |

#2 Monday is Robert E. Lee's Birthday, it both precedes and overshadows that upstart "Race Baiter" Martin Luther King. (And no the similar date is NO coincidence, it's intended to eliminate and replace Marse Robert's Birthday, ain't working). |
