紐約時報花了相當大的篇幅,回顧蔣宋美齡的一生非常值得注意的事,整篇文章,從開始到結尾都不斷強調一件事,就是蔣宋美齡A了美國的錢,也清楚提及美國人對蔣宋美齡幻滅的過程。台灣的統派媒體和政客只顧吹噓蔣宋美齡如何受到美國人愛戴,而隱藏美國人後來極端厭惡蔣宋美齡的事實,真是夠了。
節錄部份段落:
The governing Nationalists received considerable American aid, but American officials in China warned of vast amounts of graft among Nationalists. More than $3 billion was appropriated to China during the war, and most of it was transmitted through T. V. Soong, who as China’s foreign minister was based in Washington. It later became apparent that the Soong family suffered vicious infighting over the purloined funds.其他在中國的美國官員也對國民政府偷雞摸狗的腐敗行徑發出警告。美國在戰時,支援中國超過三十億美元,但是,大多數都是宋子文經手,宋是中國駐在華府的財政首長。後來事實顯示,宋家為了分贓這些A來的援助金,搞得家庭很不愉快。
In her frustration, she publicly likened American politics to "clodhopping boorishness." Coming after years of generous American support, that irritated Truman.挫折之下,她公開的將美國政治比喻成「無恥的粗鄙無文」。美國多年來對蔣家這樣大方的支持,竟然換得這樣的評價,這激怒了杜魯門。
"They’re thieves, every damn one of them," Truman said later, referring to Nationalist leaders. "They stole $750 million out of the billions that we sent to Chiang. They stole it, and it’s invested in real estate down in São Paolo and some right here in New York."「他們是賊,她們每一個人都是賊。」杜魯門指的是國民政府的領導人,「他們從我們送給蔣政府的上十億美金裡,偷取了將近七億五千萬美金。他們偷了這筆錢,而且將這筆錢投資在巴西的聖保羅,以及就在這裡,紐約的房地產。」
倘若老蔣有帶來黃金,大概75%以上都進了孔宋家族口袋,宋美齡晚年至少長住美國雙橡園30年以上,只差護照不是美國籍,否則就是100%美國人了,其支出花費均由台灣全體人民稅收買單。
They’re thieves, every damn one of them!
