...loans and loan-guarantees. Washington had already acceded to the reality that nobody outside its "coalition of the willing" is going to provide funds to be managed directly by U.S. viceroy Paul Bremer, so a separate fund was created under the supervision of the IMF and World Bank to attract grants. But loans, presumably, would be a different matter. Those who loan money to others expect to be repaid, and therefore they need to know that the entity undertaking to repay the loan will be in a position - legally and financially - to do so.

Paisley's able deputy, Peter Robinson, has reshaped the party's image to attract those who aren't religiously fundamentalist but think the dry, precise Trimble can't stand up to the I.R.A.'s tough guys. If Paisley wins, he says he won't operate the Northern Ireland government or even negotiate unless not just the I.R.A. but also its political allies in Sinn...
