1965 Handel en Wandel (autobiography)

„Company executives from the major Dutch multinationals residing in London (mainly Shell, Unilever, and Philips)
discussed the important economic and social issues that would face the Netherlands after the end [of] the war. In fact,
meetings of these industrialists, organised by Unilever's chairman, Paul Rijkens, were partly a continuation of the
prewar Contact Committee of Dutch large multinationals. They were convinced that close contacts with Great Britain
and the United States would be essential for the future economic prosperity of the Netherlands.“ Sluyterman,
Varieties of Capitalism and Business History

„From the Dutch viewpoint, the punitive sanctions against Germany ... such as decartelization and the dismantling of
German industry, were dangerous.

There was minor dissent from this position from, for example, the Study Group for Reconstruction Problems
(Studiegroep voor Reconstructieproblemen). Founded in July 1941 by Paul Rijkens, President of Unilever, to assist
the London-based Dutch government-in-exile, the study group included J.B. Aug. Kessler of Royal-Dutch Shell and a
number of the ministers of the government-in-exile. It recommended that the Netherlands should reorient its trade
after the war to Great Britain.“ Sherner/White, Paying for Hitler's War: The Consequences of Nazi Economic

David Aaron USA diplomat CFR 77


1977- ongoing Member, CFR
He entered the U.S. foreign service in 1962, where he served as a political and economic officer in Guayaquil,
Ecuador. In 1964 he was assigned to the NATO desk at the Department of State. He subsequently served as a political
officer to NATO where he worked on the Nuclear Planning Group and on the Non Proliferation Treaty. He then joined
the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency where he served as a member of the U.S. Delegation to the Strategic
Arms Limitation Talks (SALT), during which Aaron was a key negotiator of an agreement with the Soviet Union to
reduce the risk of nuclear weapon accidents. He was then recruited to serve on Henry Kissinger's National Security
Council staff during the Nixon administration, from 1972 to 1974. During that time, Aaron drafted NSSM 242 on
Nuclear Strategy, which came to be known as the Schlessenger Doctrine.
In 1974, on the recommendation of Zbigniew Brzezinski, Aaron became Senator Walter Mondale's legislative
assistant. The following year, Aaron was task force leader of the Senate's Select Committee on Intelligence. He was
the principal architect of the Committee's recommendations. Aaron would later follow Mondale to the Jimmy Carter
Presidential campaign.
In 1977, Aaron was asked by Zbigniew Brzezinski, who had been appointed the National Security Advisor, to
become Deputy National Security Advisor in the administration of Jimmy Carter. Aaron was one of several
former Kissinger aides appointed by Jimmy Carter to foreign policy and defense positions.
During his time at the White House, Aaron made a name for himself in foreign policy circles and was recognised as a
rising star in the Democratic Party.
Shortly after Carter's inauguration, Aaron attended the Bilderberg Conference, in which he undertook lengthy
private discussions with German Chancellor Helmut Schmidt.
Aaron was also seen as a tough and sometimes controversial figure. The U.S. Ambassador in Paris complained that he
was going behind his back in secret dealings with French President Giscard d'Estaing's office.
When Reagan became President in 1981, Aaron moved into the private sector, becoming Vice President for Mergers
and Acquisitions at Oppenheimer and Co. and Vice Chairman of Oppenheimer International. Aaron left Oppenheimer
in 1985, to write and lecture, but went on to serve on the board of directors of Oppenheimer's Quest for Value Dual
Purpose Fund. Over the next several years he published three novels (State Scarlet; Agent of Influence and Crossing
By Night) which were translated into ten languages.

In 1993 he became United States Permanent Representative to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and
Development (OECD) in Paris, and in 1996 was assigned the additional job of White House Special Envoy for
Cryptography. At the OECD he successfully negotiated the Convention to Prohibit Bribery in International Business
Transactions. As Special Envoy for Cryptography, Aaron pushed for a global standard that would require computer
users with high grade encryption to submit keys to their codes for scrambling data to an independent authority, which
would hold them in escrow and make them available to law enforcement only under a court order. At the time, he
argued that unbreakable codes in the hands of terrorists would threaten every country's security. However, he was
attacked by advocates of privacy rights, who said that the compromise could easily be misused by Governments and
corporations. In 1997 he was appointed Under Secretary of Commerce for International Trade, where ironically he
negotiated privacy rules with the European Union on the handling of personal data.
After Clinton's second term in office, Aaron became senior international advisor at Dorsey & Whitney. He left Dorsey
& Whitney in 2003 to join the RAND Corporation as a senior fellow.
He is a member of the American Ditchley Foundation, the Atlantic Council, the Council on Foreign Relations, the
International League of Human Rights, theNational Democratic Institute, and thePacific Council on International
Policy.

1941- Assistant Secretary of State, helped with a lot of War policies
Brought back as assistant secretary of state in 1941, Acheson implemented much of United States economic policy
aiding Great Britain and harming the Axis Powers. Acheson implemented the Lend-Lease policy that helped re-arm
Great Britain and the American/British/Dutch oil embargo that cut off 95 percent of Japanese oil supplies and
escalated the crisis with Japan in 1941. Roosevelt froze all Japanese assets merely to disconcert them. He did not
intend the flow of oil to Japan to cease. The president then departed Washington for Newfoundland to meet with
Churchill. While he was gone Acheson used those frozen assets to deny Japan oil. Upon the president's return, he
decided it would appear weak and appeasing to reverse the de facto oil embargo.
1945- Undersecretary of State
1946-1948 Acheson helped design the Marshall Plan and was a key player in the development
of the Truman Doctrine and creation of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
1948-1971 Member, CFR
1949-1953 Secretary of State
Acheson's most famous decision was convincing President Truman to intervene in the Korean War in June 1950.
During the Cuban Missile Crisis, President John F. Kennedy called upon Acheson for advice, bringing him into
the executive committee (ExComm), a strategic advisory group.
Acheson's law offices were strategically located a few blocks from the White House and he accomplished much out
of office. He became an unofficial advisor to the Kennedy and Johnson administrations. During the Cuban Missile
Crisis, for example, he was dispatched by Kennedy to France to brief French President Charles de Gaulle and gain his
support for the United States blockade. Acheson so strongly opposed the final decision merely to blockade that he
resigned from the Executive Committee. During the 1960s, he was a leading member of a bipartisan group of
establishment elders known as The Wise Men, who initially supported the Vietnam War, but then turned against it

--> irgendetwas muss passiert sein im Sommer 2013!! sicher Selbstmord des Finanzchefs Pierre Wauthier aber
eventuell mehr dahinter?

Am 7. Dezember 2011 entging Ackermann einem Briefbomben-Anschlag, zu dem sich die italienische Anarchisten-
Gruppe Federazione Anarchica Informale bekannte.

Im Herbst 2011 hatte sich Ackermann überraschend von seiner Kandidatur für den Verwaltungsrat der Deutschen
Bank distanziert. Seine Aufgabe als Noch-Konzernchef sei zu intensiv, lautete die wenig überzeugende Begründung.
Was viel eher den Ausschlag gegeben haben dürfte, waren Ermittlungen der Staatsanwaltschaft im Fall Leo Kirch, die
damals einen ersten Höhepunkt erreichten. Aus heutiger Warte passen die beiden Ereignisse jedenfalls nahtlos
zusammen. Heute [April 2015] muss Ackermann mit vier Ex-Kollegen der Deutschen Bank vor dem Richter
antraben. Ihnen wird Falschaussage rund um den Konkurs des Medienimperiums vorgeworfen.

2014: Wenig später schied Ackermann erst aus dem Verwaltungsrat von Siemens und dem Ölkonzern Shell aus, dann
trat er beim Weltwirtschaftsforum WEF von Klaus Schwab zurück. Die prestigeträchtigen Ämter bei wichtigen
börsenkotierten Konzernen oder renommierten Institutionen war er los. Mandate bei der schwedischen
Milliardärsfamilie Wallenberg ab 2012 und dem russischen Oligarchen Viktor Vekselberg ab 2014 brachten zwar
Geld, aber kaum Image.

1953 wurde Agnelli Vizepräsident von FIAT und übernahm 1966 die Leitung der FIAT-Gruppe, sein Bruder Umberto
wurde 1968 Leiter der internationalen Geschäfte des Fiat-Konzerns. Unter Agnelli wurde FIAT zu einem der großen
Automobilhersteller Europas und zum wichtigsten Industrieunternehmen Italiens. Er diversifizierte den Konzern auch
in Bereiche außerhalb der Automobilindustrie, zum Beispiel in die Militärindustrie, und FIAT produzierte zudem
Lokomotiven, Werkzeugmaschienen, elektronische Geräte und war in der Stahlproduktion aktiv.

FIAT hatte stets eine besondere Beziehung zum Staat und Einfluss auf das politische und wirtschaftliche Leben
Italiens. Kritiker warfen Agnelli jedoch vor, dass seine Aktivitäten hauptsächlich den Interessen seiner Familie
dienten, trotz der etwaigen Nachteile, die sie für sein Land hätten haben können.
Er war ein Symbol des Kapitalismus und wurde von vielen als „der wahre König Italiens“ betrachtet.

1973-1977 Ambassador to Tanzania
1977-1981 United Nations Commissioner for Namibia,
working to secure the independence of Namibia from the Republic of South Africa
Following the death of a later UN Commissioner for Namibia, Bernt Carlsson, on Pan Am Flight 103 on 21 December
1988 – on the eve of the signing of the Tripartite Accord at UN Headquarters – Ahtisaari was sent to Namibia in April
1989 as the UN Special Representative to head the United Nations Transition Assistance Group (UNTAG).
After the independence elections of 1989, Ahtisaari was appointed an honorary Namibian citizen.
1987-1991 UN undersecretary general for administration and management
causing mixed feelings inside the organisation during an internal investigation of massive fraud. When Ahtisaari
revealed in 1990 that he had secretly lengthened the grace period allowing UN officials to return misappropriated
taxpayer money from the original three months to three years, the investigators were furious. The 340 officials found
guilty of fraud were able to return money even after their crime had been proven. The harshest punishment was the
firing of twenty corrupt officials.
1994-2000 President of Finland
His term as president began with a schism within the Centre Party government led by prime minister Esko Aho, who
did not approve of Ahtisaari's being actively involved in foreign policy.
President Ahtisaari supported Finland's entry into the European Union, and in a 1994 referendum, 57 percent of
Finnish voters were in favour of EU membership.
During Ahtisaari's term as president, Boris Yeltsin and Bill Clinton met in Helsinki. He also negotiated alongside
Viktor Chernomyrdin with Slobodan Milošević to end the fighting in the Yugoslav province of Kosovo in 1999.
Ahtisaari has stressed how important it is for Finland to join NATO.
Founder, Crisis Management Initiative (CMI)
11.2005 Special Envoy for the Kosovo status process which was to determine whether
Kosovo, having been administered by the United Nations since 1999, should become independent or remain a
province of Serbia. In early 2006, Ahtisaari opened the UN Office of the Special Envoy for Kosovo (UNOSEK) in
Vienna, Austria, from where he conducted the Kosovo status negotiations. In July 2007, however, when the EU,
Russia and the United States agreed to find a new format for the talks, Ahtisaari announced that he regarded his
mission as over. After a period of uncertainty and mounting tension, Kosovo unilaterally declared its independence
from Serbia in February 2008.
2000-2009 Chairman of the Interpeace Governing Council
2008 Nobel Peace Prize
According to the memoir of the former secretary of the Norwegian Nobel Committee, Geir Lundestad, former
Foreign Minister and UN ambassador Keijo Korhonen, who was strongly against awarding the 2008 Nobel Peace
Prize to Ahtisaari, wrote a letter to the committee which negatively portrayed Ahtisaari as a person and his merits in
international conflict zones. [would be interesting this letter]

Sir Terence Airey UK military / SS [55 II] [56?] [66?]


[listed in Retinger's list but without information when he attended]
listed on provisional list 56 in OWA archive without indication that he did not attend in the end
definitely attended 55 II according to documents in OWA archive:
[according to letter Focke to OWA 27 september 1955 after th 55 II conference he stayed longer in the hotel with
Retinger and Pomian among others]
according to minutes SC meeting ca. 1964 in OWA archive he was member SC then. Website lists him as former SC
member. However, he does not appear on any official list of participants.

In 1941, he was serving under General Sir William Platt in Abyssinia, after which he returned to General
Headquarters in Cairo: there he was appointed Director of Special Operations and later Director of Military
Intelligence.
In June 1944, Airey was promoted Major General and was later appointed Assistant Chief of Staff to General Harold
Alexander.In this capacity, he flew to Switzerland with Lyman Lemnitzer, both disguised as Irish business men, to
meet Allen Dulles. Airey's cover was as a Mr MacNeilly who claimed to be on a business trip to buy a German
dachshund called Fritzel.
The three met the SS General Karl Wolff, with Airey trying to negotiate a meeting between Wolff and General
Alexander to discuss the surrender of German forces in Italy. Airey did not succeed in arranging the meeting, and
when the Soviets found out about the meeting, the United States and UK were accused of going behind their allies'
backs. Wolff was later protected by Dulles and Lemnitzer, much to the disdain of Airey. The Karl Wolff affair would
later become known as Operation Sunrise, but at the time was codenamed Operation Fritzel because of a dog that
Airey was using as cover.
In 1947, he was appointed Commander and Military Governor of the Anglo-American Zone, Trieste, which was later
handed over to the Italians and Yugoslavs. The position was originally temporary, but Airey continued in it until 1951.
He helped restore stability to the war-battered area, particularly in the harbour and in re-opening trade routes. Before
Airey arrived, the area had been under the power of a Communist 'shadow government' which assassinated its
political opponents. He is said to have been dearly missed by the people of Trieste.
After his service at Trieste, Airey was appointed Assistant Chief of Staff, Intelligence, to General Dwight Eisenhower
at Supreme Allied Headquarters.
His last military appointment was as Commander of British Forces in Hong Kong from February 1952 to 1954. He
retired from military service in 1954, although he served as Colonel of the Durham Light Infantry until 1956.
In August 1956, he was appointed delegate-general of the European Foundation of Culture, which sought to revive
the idea of Europe as a single cultural community.

***
„Of the Allied commanders in Africa and Italy ... the future Earl Alexander of Tunis may have had the keenest sense
of intelligence. (...)

Alexander saw Ultra and other sources of intelligence through the eyes of a specialist. (...)

Alexander thus never lost sight of this unique weapon. He was never content with the daily briefings. Two or three
times a day he would wander into the warroom to make sure of not losing track of latest developments.“ -218

Terence Airey was his G-2

„Without Terence Airey, Alexander might have done less well. Kenneth Strong, Eisenhower's G-2, speaks of Airey
with high regard and would have him share with his commander credit for consistent and adroit use of intelligence.
He is especially said to have had the good intelligence officer's gift of healthy skepticism. He was also a friendly chap
who got on harmoniously with the chiefs of the other staff sections and the G-2s of the two armies.“ 218

Robert Bernard Anderson (June 4, 1910 – August 14, 1989) was an American administrator and businessman and
one of President Eisenhower's closest confidants.
Eisenhower was particularly impressed by Anderson's abilities, believing him to be more than capable of being
president himself, and he named him as one of his leading choices to be his running mate in 1956, should to be Vice-
President Richard Nixon have accepted Eisenhower's recommendation that he leave the vice-presidency in order to
serve as Secretary of Defense. However, Nixon opted to remain on the ticket with Ike. As 1960 approached,
Eisenhower acknowledged that Nixon no doubt had the Republican presidential nomination sewn up, but he privately
pressed Anderson to enter the primaries and challenge Nixon, but Anderson declined. Once Nixon was nominated,
Eisenhower suggested that he select Anderson as his running mate, but Nixon chose Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. instead.

After leaving office, he was active in business, investment and banking affairs, and, during the 1960s, carried out
diplomatic missions on behalf of President Lyndon B. Johnson.
1977 bought The Observer from David Astor [BB 57 I, 59]
Anderson turned Arco into the United States' sixth-largest oil company by the time he left in 1986 to pursue other
interests. He was by then the largest individual landowner in the United States, with ranches and other holdings in
Texas and New Mexico amounting to some 2,000 square miles (5,200 km2) and a personal fortune estimated at $200
million.
Anderson's career ended in personal suffering and disgrace. He was hospitalized several times for alcoholism. He
illegally operated the Commercial Exchange Bank of Anguilla, British West Indies, which had an unlicensed New
York branch office. The bank lost $4.4 million and several investors lost their life savings in the mid 1980s. The bank
also laundered large amounts of cash for drug traffickers. In 1987, Anderson pled guilty to criminal violations of the
banking laws and to tax evasion, and was sentenced to prison.

to succeed the chief executive and chairman, Walter B. Wriston, who had transformed Citicorp into one of the world’s
largest and most innovative banks.
In the months after the American Embassy in Tehran was seized in November 1979, he was part of a team of bank
executives that monitored the situation in Iran. Citicorp was one of many banks embroiled in litigation with the
Iranian government over its outstanding debts.
Mr. Angermueller helped create a secret plan to use Iran’s frozen bank deposits in European banks to pay off the

Indian Intelligence, suspecting that links between the Axis and the Faqir had existed for some time, first received
concrete evidence in June 1941 after the arrest. of Mohammad Aslam, the interpreter at the Italian Legation in Kabul,
when he visited his relatives near Quetta. Aslam claimed in his statement that several members of the Italian
Legation had visited the Faqir between 1939 and 1941 and supplied him with money and weapons, including
machine-guns and a wireless transmitting and receiving set. He also supplied the British with the names of the
Afghan officials and army officers co II collaborating with the Italians and with the Faqir, which were then used to
bring more pressure to bear upon the Kabul government. This was also confirmed in an other way by Quaroni, the
Italian Minister at Kabul. According to him the Faqir was visited during the war by the secretary of the Italian
Legation, Enrico Anzilotti, who did so during June 1941. Anzi lotti, who set out on 12 June, was away unnoticed for
22 days, covering the distance partly by lorry but almost on foot. As he was wearing Pashtoon dress the Afghan
police failed to apprehend him, which greatly upset them, for they offered, 150,000 Afghani for his capture. Anzilotti
spent three days at Gorwekht and returned safely to Kabul. He reported that the Faqir was in principle ready to start
action against the British on the Frontier, but required money, weapons and ammunition, (According to Quraoni, the
holy man from Waziristan had a quite definite idea about his requirements which lie made known to the Axis
Legations through his intermediaries in a form-n somewhat resembling a price list: 25,000 paid every other month to
keep the pot boiling and to double the sum if tribal activities should be extended to other areas; in the event of
general rising on the Frontier the price would have to be tripled, not counting supplies of weapons and ammunition
which the Faqir also required urgently). He stipulated the terms of cash payments and wished to have a wireless
transmitter with a trained operator. The Germans, too, wanted to establish a direct link with lpi. A few weeks after
Anzilotti's return they sent to Gorwekht two of their agents with a small group of hired tribesmen. They never reached
their destination, falling into a trap set tip by the Afghan government.

„A major figure in this transformation of the Congress from 1950 to 1955 was Raymond Aron. Aron had taken over
after the departure of Koestler as one of the prominent personalities on the CCF Executive Committee, and it was
Aron more than anyone who moulded Polanyi's original ideas for the conference. Grémion notes how the Aron-
Polanyi axis began to displace that of de Rougemont-Silone as the major intellectual influence in the workings of the
Congress in the mid-1950s, thus marking a further transition away from the key personnel of the CCF's foundation.

aristocrat?
in resistance to the Greek military dictatorship between 1967 and 1974, she took part in clandestine armed struggle,
including the smuggling of weapons and explosives
Maria was a schoolgirl on holiday when she met Count Folke Bernadotte on the island of Rhodes. It was 1948, and
the Count – a UN mediator in Palestine – was to be murdered by Zionist gunmen only a few weeks later.
In April 1967, a clique of right-wing officers and politicians overthrew democracy in Greece. Censorship, mass
arrests and torture followed.
She became a familiar figure at the United Nations as she lobbied tirelessly against recognition or acceptance of the
Greek dictatorship. In 1969, the evidence of torture produced by Maria through victims she had smuggled out of
Greece secured the expulsion of Greece from the Council of Europe.

AIOMM de geallieerden steunde. Zo bekwam hij dankzij een radiotoespraak gericht aan officieren en kapiteins van
de Franse koopvaardij, dat een groot aantal van hen naar Londen koers zette. Tevens rekruteerde hij onder meer
marconisten onder de AIOMM-leden en werkte hij samen met de Londense antenne van de Amerikaanse afdeling
arbeidsproblemen van de Office for Strategic Studies (OSS) die onder leiding stond van onder andere Arthur
Goldberg. In 1942 stelde Becu zijn vakbondsnetwerk in Nazi-Duitsland en West-Europa ter beschikking van de OSS
en ronselde hij onder meer op het congres van de Internationale Transportarbeiders Federatie (ITF) te Londen in mei
1942 vakbondafgevaardigden om een verbindingsnetwerk uit te bouwen voor de OSS. In de laatste oorlogsjaren ten
slotte bouwde een radio-contraspionagenetwerk uit dat een belangrijke bijdrage leverde in de strijd tegen de Duitse
U-boten. Daarnaast was hij secretaris van de Groep Emile Vandervelde (de Belgische socialistische parlementsleden
in ballingschap) en was hij tezamen met Dore Smets en Jef Rens een van de oprichters van het Belgisch Syndicaal
Centrum.

brother Francis was son-in-law of Thomas Sivewright Catto, Governor Bank of England
about Father: In 1940, as the Second World War unfolded and France fell, Archibald Ramsay (a Scottish Unionist
MP) was interned under Defence Regulation 18b as a security risk and potential traitor. Ramsay was a man who
professed extreme right wing opinions, was pro-German and also avowedly anti-Semitic. In 1941, it was revealed that
he had compiled a book (the "Red Book") of members of his "Right Club", which as the name suggests included
people who he deemed to hold the "right" views and to be "right" wing. Despite pressure to reveal the names to the
House of Commons, the then Home Secretary (Herbert Morrison) refused to do so, on the grounds that it was
impossible to know if all the 235 names in the book were really members. The list of names was not made public
until 1989. Bennett's name was among them. Although it is possible that his name was included by Ramsay without
his permission (to encourage others), it seems more probable that Bennett was indeed a member.

Rich, truculent and litigious, Sir Frederic Bennett, who has died aged 83, was a striking example of a hereditary
political changeling. Although he served for 36 years as a Conservative MP, in April 1997 he announced that it was
"time for a change" and that he would be voting for New Labour since they were "no longer Marxist socialists".

as the cold war intensified Bennett Jr concluded that "the enemies of your enemies are your friends", and aligned
himself with all, and any, of Moscow's enemies. He backed all Muslim states, no matter how reactionary or
authoritarian, even defending Turkey's 1974 invasion of Cyprus.

Bennett was born into an intensely political and well-off family, and never ceased to trade on his father's connections.

it provided him with a core of lucrative directorships, which, ranging from the blue chip to the dodgy (BCCI),
supported a lifestyle that included a Rolls-Royce and four homes, one of them in the Cayman Islands.

He was very ambivalent about the Commonwealth. In 1979-80, he was an imperial-nostalgic, fiercely resisting
Nicholas Ridley's attempt to end the Falklands impasse by a leaseback scheme with Argentina. In 1982, he co-led
resistance, mostly by racists, to William Whitelaw's attempt to give women equality in bringing in spouses from the
Commonwealth.
By far Bennett's most promising advance was his appointment, in 1956, as PPS to Reginald Maudling at the Ministry
of Supply.

He rubbed people up the wrong way; his fussy mannerisms prevented him from commanding a political audience.

Am 21. Februar 1970 explodierte neun Minuten nach dem Start an Bord von Swissair-Flug 330 (Zürich–Tel Aviv-
Lod) eine in einem Gepäckstück verstaute Bombe im Laderaum. Die Besatzung wollte die Maschine nach Zürich
zurückfliegen, jedoch verlor sie aufgrund des Rauches im Cockpit die Orientierung, und die Convair CV-990 (HB-
ICD) stürzte bei Würenlingen ab. Von den 47 Passagieren und Besatzungsmitgliedern überlebte niemand. Die
Verantwortung für den Anschlag übernahm die Volksfront zur Befreiung Palästinas PFLP.
Am 6. September 1970 war die Swissair Opfer einer mehrfachen Entführungsaktion der PFLP. In einer koordinierten
Aktion wurden fast gleichzeitig eine DC-8 (HB-IDD) der Swissair sowie eine Boeing 707 der TWA und eine Vickers
VC-10 der BOAC entführt und zur Landung im «Gaza Airport», 60 km nordöstlich von Amman inmitten der Wüste

Pierre Bérégovoy FRA politician 92


He was among the Socialist politicians who advised President Mitterrand to leave the European Monetary Systemin
order to continue Socialist economic policy. But in March 1983, Mitterrand listened to his Prime Minister Pierre
Mauroy and ratified the change of economic policy.
Bérégovoy became Minister of the Economy and Finance, from 1984 to the 1986 Socialist electoral defeat.
4.1992-3.1993 Prime Minister
After the 1992 regional elections, which were a disaster for the PS, he was finally appointed Prime Minister. He
promised to fight unemployment, economic decline and corruption. During his inaugural speech in the French
National Assembly, he claimed he knew the names of politicians from the right-wing opposition implicated in
corruption scandals, causing a great hue and cry. Bérégovoy forced Bernard Tapie, his Minister of Urban Affairs, to
resign in May 1992 after his indictment by the French justice.
He resigned after the Socialist electoral collapse of the March 1993 legislative election.
Pierre Bérégovoy committed suicide on 1 May 1993. Friends of Bérégovoy claimed that he had been depressed ever
since he lost the March legislative elections in which his Socialist Party won only 67 out of 577 parliamentary seats.
Bérégovoy was also being investigated concerning a one-million-franc interest-free loan he received from
businessman and close friend, Roger-Patrice Pelat. Pelat died of a heart attack on 7 March 1989, less than one month
after being found guilty in the Péchiney-Triangle affair.

1922 bis 1924 studierte er in Köln, wo er Mitglied des Corps Hansea Köln wurde.
1925–1928 folgte eine Tätigkeit in den USA und in Kanada (u.a. in den Ford-Werken in Detroit).
1928 bereits war er Prokurist in der Firma des Vaters, die sich mit Stahlerzeugnissen befasste. 1940 wurde er
Alleininhaber der Firma, 1942 Mitglied des Beirats der Gauwirtschaftskammer, 1943 stellvertretender Leiter der
Wirtschaftsgruppe Eisen-, Stahl- und Blechwarenindustrie und Mitglied des Präsidiums der Wirtschaftsgruppe
Metallwaren. Vom 16. April 1945 bis 7. August 1945 wurde er zum ersten ehrenamtlichen Bürgermeister der Stadt

1949-1971 President, German Industry Association (BDI)
Später war er Mitglied des Präsidiums der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Auswärtige Politik
Als BDI-Präsident äußerte er im Herbst 1969 anlässlich der „wilden“ Septemberstreiks in der Stahlindustrie des
Ruhrgebiets, man hätte „ruhig schießen sollen, dann herrscht wenigstens Ordnung“
27. August 1901 in Altena; † 3. Februar 1979 in Köln

„Ich verstehe nicht, wie die Industrie sich durch einen solchen Mann so lange vertreten lassen kann“, sagte in den
fünfziger Jahren einmal in kleiner Runde ein benachbartes Arbeitgebervorstandsmitglied, dem die Bergschen Tiraden
und Verbalinjurien gegen den „Meister der Marktwirtschaft“, Ludwig Erhard, in den Präsidialsitzungen des BDI und
bei anderer Gelegenheit fast körperliche Pein bereitet haben.
Das Motiv des Grolls war damals das Bemühen des Bundeswirtschaftsministers, die marktwirtschaftliche Ordnung
durch ein weitreichendes Kartellgesetz abzusichern. In dem offiziellen Jubiläumsmaterial des BDI steht unter dem
Jahr 1952: „Briefwechsel zwischen Ludwig Erhard und Fritz Berg über die Gestaltung des Wettbewerbsrechts. Der
BDI-Präsident betonte im Oktober 1952 die Notwendigkeit unternehmerischer Zusammenarbeit und fordert ihre
rechtliche Absicherung.“
(...)

Trotz aller Originalität und Freimütigkeit gewannen Berg und mit ihm seine Organisation nie ein rechtes Verhältnis
zur Öffentlichkeit. Die größte Pleite erlebte der BDI-Präsident bei einer Pressekonferenz, die er zu Beginn der
sechziger Jahre im Rahmen der Aufwertungsdebatte im Bonner Presseclub abhielt. Bei dieser Gelegenheit fiel der
Satz, er brauche nur in das Palais Schaumburg zu gehen, dann sei ein ihm nicht genehmes Vorhaben „vom Tisch“.
Auch der BDI erschrak ob dieser Offenheit und ließ den Präsidenten fortan nicht mehr in die freie Pressearena laufen.

(...)

So dachte Berg überhaupt: Wirtschaft, das ist in erster Linie Industrie. Industrie, das ist vor allem der BDI.

erfolgte Äußerungen zur Frage des Mitbestimmungsrechts. Der Zuhörerkreis von mehr als 4000 Unternehmern aus
ganz Deutschland, die zu dieser Kundgebung zusammengekommen waren, nahm die konstruktiven europäischen
Gedanken des Präsidenten geradezu mit begeisterter Zustimmung auf. Wir wollen daraus kurz registrieren:
Die Wirtschaft der Nationalstaaten darf als überholt gelten; an ihre Stelle hat die europäische, die abendländische
Wirtschaft zu treten? die Industrie ist bereit, hierfür große Opfer zu bringen. Das bedeutet aber auch den Wegfall aller
diskriminierenden Fertigungsverbote und der Eigentumsbeeinträchtigungen bei Eisen, Kohle, Chemie usw. Freiheit
der Forschung und Rückgabe der beschlagnahmten Warenzeichen und Patente und des Auslandseigentums gehören
ebenfalls hierher. Wir stehen positiv zu des Initialzündung des Schumanplans. Es ist nicht mehr entscheidend, wo in
Europa produziert wird – entscheidend ist nur noch, daß möglichst viel, in bester Qualität und zu niedrigsten Kosten
produziert wird.

In the Clinton Administration, Berger served eight years on the National Security Council staff:
1993 – 1997 deputy national security advisor (under Anthony Lake, whom Berger had
recommended for the role)
1997-2001 Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs (successor of Lake)
Berger was a central figure in formulating the foreign policy of the Clinton Administration, and played an integral
role advancing the administration's self-described objectives of advancing "democracy, shared prosperity, and peace."

In 1999, Berger was criticized for failing to promptly inform President Clinton of his knowledge that the People's
Republic of China had managed to acquire the designs of a number of U.S. nuclear warheads. Berger was originally
briefed of the espionage by the Department of Energy (DOE) in April 1996, but did not inform the president until July
1997

After leaving the Clinton Administration, Berger became chairman of Stonebridge International, an international
advisory firm he co-founded in 2001 which focused on aiding companies in their expansion into emerging markets
such as Brazil, China,India, and Russia. Stonebridge International merged in 2009 with The Albright Group, a similar
firm founded by former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, to form Albright Stonebridge Group.
In 2000, Berger was presented with an honorary degree from Tel Aviv University in Israel.

On July 19, 2004, it was revealed that the U.S. Department of Justice was investigating Berger for unauthorized
removal of classified documents in October 2003 from a National Archives reading room prior to testifying before the
9/11 Commission. The documents were five classified copies of a single report commissioned from Richard Clarke
covering internal assessments of the Clinton Administration's handling of the unsuccessful 2000 millennium attack
plots.
In April 2005, Berger pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of unauthorized removal and retention of classified
material from the National Archives in Washington
On May 17, 2007, Berger relinquished his license to practice law as a result of the Justice Department investigation
By giving up his license, Berger avoided cross-examination by the Bar Counsel regarding details of his thefts

In November 2015, Berger was awarded the Grand Cordon of the Order of the Rising Sun by the Japanese
government for his contributions to promotion of a strong and friendly relationship between the United States and
Japan, particularly as National Security Advisor to Clinton.
On December 1, 2015, World Food Program USA announced that it has given its inaugural Global Humanitarian

J. W. Beyen NED industry/politician 60


VP/president at BIS in the 1930s 57 I and 58 invited unable to attend
Johan Willem (Wim) Beyen (2 May 1897 in Utrecht – 29 April 1976 in 's-Gravenhage)

He served as Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands 1952–1956. Beyen played an important role in the
creation of the European Economic Community, and is regarded as one of the founding fathers of the European
Union.

After 1924, Beyen had several positions in the business sector: secretary of the board of Philips, head of the Dutch
branch of the central bank of the Dutch East Indies, director of one of the predecessors of the AMRO Bank, vice
president and from 1937 president of the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, and director of Unilever.
During World War II, he was, in addition to his position at Unilever, financial advisor to the Dutch government in
exile in London. In 1944, he played an important role during the Bretton Woods conference where the foundations
were laid for the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. From 1946, he was the Dutch representative in
the board of the World Bank and from 1948 also in that of the IMF.

In 1952 Wim Beyen, who did not belong to a political party, was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs in the Second
Drees cabinet.
(...)
Beyen realized that European integration in the political field would be impossible in the near future. He was
convinced that had to be begun with economic cooperation, and developed a plan that called for a European common
market, combined with the idea of a political community. He was in favour of horizontal integration instead of
continuing with a sector by sector integration along the lines of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC).[1]
On 4 April 1955 he sent a memorandum to his BeNeLux colleagues Paul-Henri Spaak (Belgium) and Joseph Bech
(Luxembourg) in which he proposed his idea of a customs union. In a meeting of the three Foreign Ministers of the
BeNeLux in The Hague on 23 April 1955 they drafted a joint memorandum to present to their colleagues of the
ECSC. They finalized the memorandum (the BeNeLux memorandum) on 18 May 1955 and presented it to the
governments of France, Germany and Italy on 20 May 1955. They proposed to discuss in a conference of the six
participating countries of the ECSC the way towards a general integration of the European economy.
This conference, the Messina Conference, was held from 1 to 3 June 1955. Beyen headed the Dutch delegation. The
final resolution of the conference largely reflected Beyen's point of view. It formed the basis for further work to
relaunch European integration and would lead to the Treaties of Rome in 1957 and the formation of the European
Economic Community and Euratom in 1958.

Bezos's maternal grandfather was Lawrence Preston Gise, was a regional director of the U.S. Atomic Energy
Commission (AEC) in Albuquerque. Before joining the AEC, Gise had worked for the Defense Advanced Research
Projects Agency (DARPA), the research and development arm of the Department of Defense that was created in 1958
as the first response by the US government to the Russian launching of Sputnik I, the first artificial Earth satellite in
1957
After graduating from Princeton, Bezos worked on Wall Street in the computer science field. He then worked on

of a family that dominated local media in Louisville for several decades in the 20th century.

Bingham attended Harvard University, then went into the family businesses
In World War II, Bingham served as an officer in the United States Navy, and was twice awarded the Bronze Star.

"Passion and Prejudice: A Family Memoir," by Sallie Bingham, said that the family reputation for public service and
liberality was a myth, and that its history was actually a lurid tale of incest, suicide, fortune-hunting men, cheated
women, even a murder. The family denounced it as "maliciously skewed."

In an article titled Journalism and the CIA: The Mighty Wurlitzer, published on the Public Information Research (PIR
- http://www.pir.org/ ) website NameBase NewsLine, No. 17, April-June 1997 we learn:
"The final months of 1977 produced three significant pieces of journalism on the CIA and the media, just before the
issue was abandoned altogether. The first, by Joe Trento and Dave Roman, reported the connections between Copley
Press and the CIA. Owner James S. Copley cooperated with the CIA for three decades. A subsidiary, Copley News
Service, was used as a CIA front in Latin America, while reporters at the Copley-owned San Diego Union and
Evening News were instructed to spy on antiwar protesters for the FBI. No less than 23 news service employees were
simultaneously working for the CIA. James Copley, who died in 1973, was also a leading figure behind the CIA-
funded Inter-American Press Association.28
The next article was by Carl Bernstein of Watergate fame. In a long piece in Rolling Stone, he came up with the
figure of 400 American journalists over the past 25 years, based primarily on interviews with Church committee
staffers. This figure included stringers and freelancers who had an understanding that they were expected to help the
CIA, as well as a small number of full-time CIA employees using journalism as a cover. It did not include foreigners,
nor did it include numerous Americans who traded favors with the CIA in the normal give-and-take between a
journalist and his sources. In addition to some of the names already mentioned above, Bernstein supplied details on
Stewart and Joseph Alsop, Henry Luce, Barry Bingham Sr. of the Louisville Courier-Journal, Hal Hendrix of the
Miami News, columnist C.L. Sulzberger, Richard Salant of CBS, and Philip Graham and John Hayes of the
Washington Post.

(...)

Conspicuously absent from the CIA and the media articles are links to the Council on Foreign Relations. How many
of the journalists, owners, executives and editors that the reporters concentrated on were also members of the Council
on Foreign Relations. Are Joe Trento, Dave Roman, Carl Bernstein and the New York Times reporters near-sighted,
poorly informed investigative journalists, or , CFR insiders or CIA operatives participating in keeping CFR
sponsorship of covert operations a secret? Why haven't they connected "The Special Group" (aka the 40-committee,
aka the operations coordinating board, aka the psychological strategy board) to the Council on Foreign Relations?

Berktay uncovered that the Turkish government purged many of the evidence's and documents regarding the
Armenian Genocide found in the Turkish archives.[6] According to him, the archive cleaning was “most probably
implemented by Muharrem Nuri Birgi, a former Turkish ambassador to London and NATO and Secretary General of
the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”[6] Berktay also claims that “at the time he was combing the archives, Nuri
Birgi met regularly with a mutual friend and at one point, referring to the Armenians, ruefully confessed: ‘We really
slaughtered them.’”[6]

Eugene Black USA [INT] World Bank 57 I


chairman IBRD 58 & 59 invited, unable to attend
Eugene "Gene" Robert Black, Sr. (May 1, 1898 – February 20, 1992) was President of the International Bank for
Reconstruction and Development / World Bank from 1949 to 1963

Upon leaving the Navy after the War, he joined the investment firm of Harris, Forbes, & Co. He worked as a traveling
salesperson for the firm selling bonds and meeting with bankers and investors. He opened the firm's first southern
office in Atlanta and later became a partner in the firm.[1]
In 1933, he was hired by the Chase National Bank to be their vice-president. He went on to become the senior vice-
president of Chase National's investment portfolio.[1]
He became the executive director of the World Bank in 1947. When the Bank's President, John J. McCloy, resigned in
1949, Black, against his will, became the President of the Bank.[1]

From 1962 to 1968, Black was chairman of the Brookings Institution.[3]


President Johnson selected Black in 1966 to be Special Adviser to the President on Southeast Asian Social and
Economic Development. In this position, Black attended the inaugural meeting of the Asian Development Bank in
Tokyo.[4]

source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_R._Black,_Sr.

Through these institutions, and Mr. Black's striking success in introducing World Bank bonds to the leading financial
markets of the world, private and public capital was mobilized on an international basis and channeled into
productive projects in the developing countries for power, transportation, agriculture, communications, industry and
other essential purposes. Mr. Black also made invaluable contributions in leading the World Bank Group to a vital
role as mediator and conciliator in the peaceful settlement of intense international controversies, of which the dispute
over compensation for the nationalization of the Suez Canal and the dispute between India and Pakistan over the
division of the waters of the Indus River System are well-known examples.

When he retired from World Bank activities in January 1963, Mr. Black no doubt assumed that his life would be less
hectic, but it was not to be. As a reflection of the business world's esteem for him, he was elected to the Boards of
some of the nation's most important firms, including The Chase Manhattan Bank, Royal Dutch Shell Company,
International Telephone & Telegraph Company, The New York Times, F. W. Woolworth Company, Cummins Engine
Company, American Express Company, and The Howmet Corporation, of which he was recently named Chairman of
the Board.

coalition began its invasion.
Senior U.S. officials ordered the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to investigate Blix to gather "sufficient
ammunition to undermine" him so that the U.S. could start the invasion of Iraq. The U.S. officials were upset that the

trade: I think we should be concluding new trade treaties rather than pulling out of old ones. I am strong on defense: I
think we need to beef up our military to cope with multiple enemies. And I am very much in favor of America acting

been doing in one form or another since at least 1898."

Lord Boothby UK politician 54


Robert John Graham Boothby, Baron Boothby, KBE (also known as Bob Boothby, 12 February 1900 – 16 July
1986) was a controversial British Conservative politician.

was elected as Member of Parliament (MP) for Aberdeen and Kincardine East in 1924. He held the seat until its
abolition in 1950, when he was elected for its successor constituency of East Aberdeenshire. Re-elected a final time
in 1955, he gave up the seat in 1958 when he was raised to the peerage, triggering a by-election.
He was Parliamentary Private Secretary to Chancellor of the Exchequer Winston Churchill from 1926 to 1929 and
held junior ministerial office as Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food in 1940–41.

Boothby opposed free trade in food stuffs, and claimed that such a policy would invalidate the Agriculture Act 1947
and ruin British farmers.
Boothby advocated the UK's entry into the European Community (now the European Union) and was a British
delegate to the Consultative Assembly of the Council of Europe from 1949 until 1957.

President, Anglo-Israel Association, 1962–75.

This file contains a considerable amount of documentation concerning Boothby’s dealings with Czech financier
Richard Weininger, in 1939-40. Boothby was Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food in 1940-41. A
Parliamentary Select Committee investigated Boothby’s dealings and found him guilty of improper conduct, and
there was also an allegation that he was accepting payments from a pharmaceutical company (connected with the
issue of fortifying bread with vitamins). Boothby resigned from his junior ministerial position but managed to retain
his parliamentary seat. He went on to join the Royal Air Force, remaining as MP.
The file contains transcripts of ‘tapped’ telephone conversations made by Boothby, including calls made to his
mother. This tapping and transcribing of phone calls was carried out by wartime censors without Security Service
involvement. There are also some extraordinary exchanges of notes between Boothby and Major Sinclair written on
restaurant notepaper following an overheard conversation in a London restaurant in March 1939.
Catalogue reference: KV 2/4096
Date range: 9 May 1941–24 August 1951
This file has been digitised.
This file contains further documentation concerning Boothby’s relations with Richard Weininger, including letters
which MI5 had intercepted and transcribed. There is an account of a meeting on 11/05/1943 between Sir Oswald
Mosley and Boothby, during Mosley’s internment. On 26/02/1948 it is noted that Mosley ‘appears to be on
particularly close terms with Boothby’. It is stated that Boothby and Brendan Bracken, Minister of Information,
‘interested themselves’ in Mosley’s application for a British passport in May 1949, with Boothby approaching the
Foreign Office over the issue. BG Atkinson writes that Boothby ‘appears to sympathise with the fascist belief of the
evil of Jewish control through international finance’.
Catalogue reference: KV 2/4097
Date range: 27 October 1951–16 October 1964
This file has been digitised.
Boothby is understood to be supporting the idea of a Western European movement and it said to be ‘helping Mosley
in some way with the Germans’. Reports mention Boothby’s homosexuality. A memo of 10/07/1963 gives details of
Boothby’s first exchanges with the Kray brothers. The file includes newspaper cuttings such as the famous Sunday
Mirror front page headline of 12/07/1964: ‘Peer and a Gangster: Yard Probe’. MI5 note that the story ‘is hot in Fleet
Street’. An MI5 typed report of 15/07/64 gives a detailed account of the story, drawing on information from an inside
‘source’ (described as a ‘self confessed homosexual’), referring to the relationship between Boothby and his
chauffeur, Leslie Holt alias Johnny Kid(d), former boxer: ‘they are genuinely attached; this is no fly-by-night affair’.
The report also comments on the activities of the Kray brothers and, referring to Ronnie Kray and Boothby, states:
‘both are hunters (of young men)’. The Kray family house in Vallance Road (Bethnal Green) is mentioned in the
context of explaining about the Krays and their background. A note by Roger Hollis reveals that the Home Secretary
is concerned about the Sunday Mirror story and a ‘possible Profumo scandal’; however, Hollis sees no security issue.
MI5 passed on its information to Special Branch.
When the Mirror dropped the story, an MI5 official comments: ‘they doubt whether Boothby will sue, because he has
so much to hide’. On 11/09/64, information received from MI5’s source reveals that Leslie Holt was very angry as
Boothby has sacked him. There is a further allegation that Holt was threatened by Ronnie Kray and Boothby is
mentioned.

„In the debate over the Schuman Proposal, one of the advocates for British participation, the Conservative Robert
Boothby, told the House of Commons:
I do believe that there must be not so much a surrender as a merger or pooling of national sovereignty for specific
purposes... In the economic field it certainly involves the coordination of national monetary and fiscal policies and
the acceptance of the principle of planned international investment, production and trade, and the abandonment of the
principle of non-discrimination.

Boothby delivered a forewarning of ‘fortress Europe’ in this speech, and made clear he preferred building Europe so
as to remain open to international trade. The British functional approach’s insistence on membership variability and
opposition to a closed regional organization provides an explanation for the British opting out of European integration
in 1950. Boothby assured the House that he had never tried to disguise the fact that Britain was at the center of the
Commonwealth and could not enter a European political federation and that “our approach to the problem of
European unity must always be functional rather than constitutional.”
Boothby advocated British participation in the Schuman Plan by emphasizing its functional basis and ignoring
Monnet’s federal rhetoric. Boothby argued that the functional approach would break down national sovereignty
through ‘concrete’ practical action in both the political and economic spheres. Skeptics in his own government found
this as objectionable as the federalist argument. Boothby’s vision was certainly a long way from anything Bevin or
the Foreign Office had in mind in 1950. The British government saw functionalists like Boothby as the thin edge of
the continental federalist wedge. And so the distinction between the two— Boothby’s functionalism and continental
federalism—was viewed as only the difference between a slower or a quicker pace of integration. Bevin had made
clear “that on no account must HM Government come into any arrangement providing for an Authority independent
of the Government.”90“ Leslie Kroker, 203 f.

Robert Bothereau est un syndicaliste et résistant français né à Baule dans le département du Loiret le 22 février
1901 et mort à Orléans (Loiret) le 31 mai 1985.
Il est, au côté de Léon Jouhaux, un des fondateurs du syndicat français Force ouvrière.

n décembre 1947, Bothereau quitte la CGT avec Jouhaux et trois autres membres du bureau, pour créer une
confédération syndicale libre et indépendante, restaurant à la fois l’esprit de l’ancienne CGT et la tradition du
syndicalisme indépendant. Au congrès constitutif de la CGT-FO, en avril 1948, il devient le premier secrétaire
général de la nouvelle confédération.
En novembre 1963, il quitte volontairement son poste, organise sa succession — André Bergeron lui succède — et
prend soin de ne pas prendre parti dans la vie interne de la nouvelle direction de la confédération.
Bothereau est alors appelé à occuper plusieurs fonctions importantes : conseiller général de la Banque de France de
1963 à 1973, conseiller d'État en service extraordinaire de 1964 à 1967. À ce titre, il représente la France auprès de
l'Organisation internationale du travail.

Übernahme, welche die europäische Bankenlandschaft wie keine andere geprägt hat: 2007 schlossen sich Santander,

ca. 1959-1968 member steering committee
67 on provisional list in James Bill papers
Informant von Allen Dulles während des Zweiten Weltkrieges
Walter Boveri ist bei weitem nicht nur Lebemann. Er steigt nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg bei BBC ein und erweist sich
als effizienter Manager. Doch 1924 stirbt sein Vater, und an die Spitze des Verwaltungsrates tritt Fritz Funk. Dieser
zitiert ihn in sein Büro und entlässt ihn fristlos. Funk duldet keine Konkurrenz. Boveri wechselt das Metier, wird
erfolgreicher Finanzberater bei einer Privatbank und rehabilitiert sich anschliessend bei der BBC. 1930 holt ihn BBC
in den Verwaltungsrat, drei Jahre später gründet er seine eigene Privatbank. 1938 wird er zum Präsidenten der BBC
gewählt. Er führt BBC nach schwierigen Jahren erneut auf einen ausgesprochenen Wachstumspfad. Boveri
diversifiziert in neue Produktionsbereiche wie die Elektronik und die Kernenergie, eröffnet neue
Tochtergesellschaften und etabliert eine eher konservative Finanzpolitik.

Aber er bleibt in erster Linie Banker; bei BBC konzentriert er sich auf die strategische Führung. Nur zwei Tage pro
Woche ist er in Baden präsent. In den späten Jahren wird diese knappe Zeit verbunden mit dem hohen Alter des
Patrons zunehmend als problematisch empfunden. 1966 wird Boveri als BBC-Präsident abgelöst und zum
Ehrenpräsidenten ernannt. 1972 stirbt er in seiner Residenz in Herrliberg, hoch über dem Zürichsee.

In July 1946 he came back to Hamburg working for the American Federation of Labor. In October 1946 after the
election of the Hamburg Parliament, Brauer was elected as the First Mayor of Hamburg. After Brauer complained in a

to heat the officers' mess until there were a solution.
From 1961 until 1965 Brauer was member of the German Bundestag.

2005-2008 Chairman of the Intelligence and National Security Alliance (INSA) and the CEO
of The Analysis Corporation (TAC). He continued to lead TAC after its acquisition by Global Strategies Group in
2007 and its growth as the Global Intelligence Solutions division of Global's North American technology business
GTEC, before returning to government service with the Obama administration as Homeland Security Advisor on
January 20, 2009
1.2009-3.2013 Homeland Security Advisor
in charge of: Disposition Matrix, informally known as a kill list, is a database of information for tracking,
capturing, rendering, or killing suspected enemies of the United States federal government. Developed by the
Obama administration beginning in 2010, the "Disposition Matrix" goes beyond existing kill lists and is intended to
become a permanent fixture of U.S. policy. The process determining criteria for killing is not public and was heavily
shaped by National Counterterrorism Director and former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director John O.
Brennan.
In April 2012 Brennan was the first Obama administration official to publicly acknowledge CIA drone strikes in
Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, Libya, Afghanistan, and elsewhere. In his speech he argued for the legality, morality, and
effectiveness of the program. The ACLU and other organizations disagreed. In 2011/2012 he also helped reorganize
the process, under the aegis of the Disposition Matrix database, by which people outside of war zones were put on the
list of drone targets. According to an Associated Press story, the reorganization helped "concentrate power" over the
process inside the White House administration.
In June 2011, Brennan claimed that US counter-terrorism operations had not resulted in "a single collateral death" in
the past year because of the "precision of the capabilities that we’ve been able to develop." Nine months later,
Brennan claimed he had said "we had no information" about any civilian, noncombatant deaths during the timeframe
in question. The Bureau of Investigative Journalism disagreed with Brennan, citing their own research that initially
led them to believe that 45 to 56 civilians, including six children, had been killed by ten US drone strikes during the
year-long period in question. Additional research led the Bureau to raise their estimate to 76 deaths, including eight
children and two women. According to the Bureau, Brennan's claims "do not appear to bear scrutiny." The Atlantic
has been harsher in its criticism, saying that "Brennan has been willing to lie about those drone strikes to hide ugly
realities."
According to the Bureau of Investigative Journalism, Brennan's comments about collateral death are perhaps
explained by a counting method that treats all military-aged males in a strike zone as combatants unless there is
explicit information to prove them innocent.

child abuse scandals:


In 1984, in his capacity as Home Secretary, Brittan was handed a 40-page dossier by Geoffrey Dickens MP that
detailed alleged paedophile activity in the 1980s at Westminster. The whereabouts of the dossier is currently
unknown, along with other files on organised child abuse previously held by the Home Office. Brittan denied any
knowledge of the matter in an e-mail to a Channel 4 News reporter in 2013, and later replied that he had no
recollection of it to a query from The Independent newspaper. Brittan later declared in 2014 that Dickens had met
him at the Home Office and that he had written to Dickens on 20 March 1984, explaining what had been done in
relation to the files.
An initial review by Home Office civil servant Mark Sedwill in 2013 found that copies of Dickens's material had "not
been retained" but that Brittan had acted appropriately in dealing with the allegations. In November 2014, a review
by Peter Wanless followed. Wanless said it was impossible to say whether files were removed to cover up abuse. The
chairman of the Home Affairs Select Committee, Keith Vaz, said that files had been lost "on an industrial scale".
Mark Sedwill found that 114 files "potentially relevant" to child abuse were known to have been lost or
destroyed by the Home Office and at least four specific allegations relating to child abuse were not passed to police
for up to 35 years.
After Brittan died in January 2015, he was accused of "multiple child rape". Labour MP Tom Watson said he had
spoken to two people who claimed they were abused by Brittan, including a man who alleged he had been attacked
more than a dozen times as a boy. The alleged victim also said he had seen Brittan assault others. Watson said that he
– along with others, including media organisations – had known of the accusations but had decided not to speak out
for fear of prejudicing any jury trial that Brittan might have one day faced.

In government documents released in July 2015, Brittan was one of four senior Westminster figures named in
connection with child sexual abuse, but the context of the reference is not known. Along with Brittan, the former
British diplomat Sir Peter Hayman, and former ministers William van Straubenzee and Peter Morrison were named in
secret government files after a review into historical child sex abuse.

George Alfred Brown, Baron George-Brown, PC (2 September 1914 – 2 June 1985) was a British Labour politician
who served as Deputy Leader of the Labour Party from 1960 to 1970 and also in a number of Cabinet positions, most
notably as Foreign Secretary during the Labour government of the 1960s. He was a leader of the Labour Party's trade
union right wing, and an effective election campaigner. Ultimately, however, he was unable to cope with the pressures
of high office without excessive drinking.

Irving Brown UK trade union 54


Irving Brown (Bronx, 1911 - Paris, July 14, 1989) was an American trade-unionist, member of the American
Federation of Labor (AFL) and then of the AFL-CIO, who played an important role in Western Europe and in Africa,
during the Cold War, in supporting splits among trade-unions in order to counter Communist influence. At the same
time as Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) agent, he founded in 1962 the American Institute for Free Labor
Development along with former Communist Party of America member and CIA agent Jay Lovestone.

He arrived in Paris in November 1945 and organized anti-Communist unions, supporting in particular the creation of
the French Force ouvrière (FO) union (which he subsidized) by André Bergeron and Léon Jouhaux, in 1947, and the
Italian Confederation of Workers' Trade Unions (CISL), created in 1950.[3] Until 1986, Brown was present at all of
the annual congresses of FO. The AFL-CIO's Free Trade Union Committee subsidized FO and other anti-Communist
unions in Europe.
In 1949, alongside Jay Lovestone, he supported the spin-off of the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions
(ICFTU) from the World Federation of Trade Unions (WFTU). The ICFTU included the AFL-CIO, the British Trades
Union Congress, the FO, the Italian Confederation of Workers' Trade Unions and the Spanish Unión General de
Trabajadores. Thereafter, the WFTU represented the Eastern Bloc while the ICFTU represented the so-called "free
world". As a friend of Averell Harriman, who was in charge of the Marshall Plan, Brown easily diverted funds from
the Marshall Plan to support anti-Communist organizations.
The following year, on June 26, 1950, Brown was part of the American delegation at the founding meeting of the
Congress for Cultural Freedom in Berlin.
By 1952, his activities were already well known: he was the subject of an article by Time magazine, titled "The Most
Dangerous Man." According to Time, he was charged of this mission by the AFL Free Trade Union Committee.
Brown gave financial support to anti-Communist movements which broke the 1947 strikes in Italy and France. He
also helped organize the anti-Communist coalition of free trade unions in Greece, as well as the Mediterranean Port
Committee, which wrested control of French, Italian and Greek ports from the Communists.
From 1951 to 1954, the CIA division headed by Thomas Braden provided $1 million a year to Brown and Lovestone
($1,600,000 in 1954).
In 1952 he was in Helsinki, supporting the unionists who had decided to vote to quit the World Federation of Trade
Unions (WFTU), then mainly composed of Communist unions.
During the Algerian War, he subsidized the Algerian National Movement (MNA), founded by Messali Hadj to oppose
the National Liberation Front (FLN).
He also participated, in Chile, to the struggle against Communists during Salvador Allende's presidency. In 1984, he
organized demonstrations which accompanied Mikhail Gorbachev's worldwide meetings.

In his 6½ action-packed years as A.F.L. representative in Europe, Irving Brown has become one of the Americans that
Communists know best—and hate most. In Belgium Communists call him "the grey eminence of the yellow
international," in Italy "Scarface, the notorious American fascist racketeer," in Prague "the chief union splitter."

2.1981-10.1981 Prime Minister
In 1983, Brundtland was invited by then United Nations Secretary-General Javier Pérez de Cuéllar to establish
and chair the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED), widely referred to as the
Brundtland Commission. She developed the broad political concept of sustainable development in the course of
extensive public hearings, that were distinguished by their inclusiveness. The commission, which published its report,
Our Common Future, in April 1987, provided the momentum for the 1992 Earth Summit/UNCED, which was headed
by Maurice Strong, who had been a prominent member of the commission. The Brundtland Commission also
provided momentum for Agenda 21.
5.1986-10.1989 Prime Minister
11.1990-10.1996 Prime Minister
the Norwegian government in 1993 took the initiative to sponsor secret peace talks between the Government of Israel
led by Yitzchak Rabin - like Brundtland, leader of a Labour Party - and the PLO led by Yasser Arafat. This
culminated with the signing of the Oslo Accords. For several years afterwards Norway continued to have a high-
profile involvement in promoting Israeli-Palestinian peace, though increasingly displaced by the United States from
its role as the mediator.
In 1994, Brundtland was awarded the Charlemagne Prize of the city of Aachen.
5.1998-7.2003 Director General, WHO
In this capacity, Brundtland adopted a far-reaching approach to public health, establishing a Commission on
Macroeconomics and Health, chaired by Jeffrey Sachs, and addressing violence as a major public health issue.
Brundtland spearheaded the movement, now worldwide, to achieve the abolition of cigarette smoking by education,
persuasion, and increased taxation.
Under Brundtland's leadership, the World Health Organization was criticized for increased drug-company influence
on the agency.
In 2006 Brundtland was a member of the Panel of Eminent Persons who reviewed the work of the United Nations
Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). In May 2007, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon named
Brundtland, as well as Ricardo Lagos (the former president of Chile), and Han Seung-soo (the former foreign minister
of South Korea), to serve as UN Special Envoys for Climate Change.
Gro Harlem Brundtland is a member of the Council of Women World Leaders, an international network of current and
former women presidents and prime ministers whose mission is to mobilize collective action on issues of critical
importance to women and equitable development.
Brundtland is also a member of the Club of Madrid
Brundtland serves as Deputy Chair of The Elders
Brundtland narrowly escaped assassination by Anders Behring Breivik on 22 July 2011. She had been on the island of
Utøya hours before the massacre there to give a speech to the AUF camp; Breivik stated that he originally intended
Brundtland to be the main target of the attack (along with Eskil Pedersen and Jonas Gahr Støre), but he had been
delayed while travelling from Oslo. Breivik arrived on Utøya about two hours after Brundtland had left.
During his trial in 2012, Breivik revealed detailed assassination plans for Brundtland. He told the court that he had
planned to handcuff her and then record himself reading out a prepared text detailing her "crimes", before
decapitating her on camera using a bayonet and uploading the footage to the internet. Breivik said that while
Brundtland had been his main target, he had still planned to massacre everyone else on the island.

1977-1981 National Security Advisor
Brzezinski advised Carter in 1978 to engage the People's Republic of China and traveled to Beijing to lay the
groundwork for the normalization of relations between the two countries. This also resulted in the severing of ties
with the United States' longtime anti-Communist ally the Republic of China (Taiwan).
In 1985, under the Reagan administration, Brzezinski served as a member of the President's Chemical Warfare
Commission. From 1987 to 1988, he worked on the U.S. National Security Council–Defense Department
Commission on Integrated Long-Term Strategy. From 1987 to 1989 he also served on the President's Foreign
Intelligence Advisory Board.
In 1988, Brzezinski was co-chairman of the Bush National Security Advisory Task Force, endorsing Bush for
president, and breaking with the Democratic party.
Brzezinski negatively viewed the succession of former KGB agent Vladimir Putin after Boris Yeltsin. In this vein, he
became one of the foremost advocates of NATO expansion. He wrote in 1998 that "Without Ukraine, Russia ceases to
be a Eurasian empire."
On 3 March 2014, between the 22 February ouster of Ukraine President Viktor Yanukovych and the 16 March
Crimean referendum, Brzezinski authored an op-ed piece for The Washington Post entitled "What is to be done?
Putin’s aggression in Ukraine needs a response" He led with a link on Russian aggression; he compared Russian
President Vladimir Putin's "thuggish tactics in seizing Crimea" and "thinly camouflaged invasion" to Adolf Hitler's
occupation of the Sudetenland in 1938, and characterised Putin as a cartoon Benito Mussolini, but stopped well short
of advocating that the U.S. go to war. Rather, he suggested that NATO should be put on high alert and recommended
"to avert miscalculations". He explicitly stated that reassurances be given "Russia that it is not seeking to draw
Ukraine into NATO."

hätte. Dies regte ihn zu Recherchen zu verdeckten Operationen westlicher Dienste an, die er in seinem ersten Buch

Like his father, he was inducted into the Skull and Bones secret society, where he was nicknamed "Odin". He
remained in contact with his fellow Bonesmen for decades afterward. He graduated Yale in the class of 1940. During
World War II he served as a U.S. Army intelligence officer.

In 1949, Bundy took a position at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York to study Marshall Plan aid to
Europe. The study group included such luminaries as Dwight Eisenhower, Allen Dulles, Richard M. Bissell, Jr. and
George Kennan. The group's deliberations were sensitive and highly secret, dealing as they did with the highly
classified fact that there was a covert side to the Marshall Plan, where the CIA used certain funds to aid anti-
communist groups in France and Italy.[5]

Carl Jacob Burckhardt (September 10, 1891 – March 3, 1974) was a Swiss diplomat and historian. His career
alternated between periods of academic historical research and diplomatic postings; the most prominent of the latter
were League of Nations High Commissioner for the Free City of Danzig (1937–39) and President of the International
Committee of the Red Cross (1945–48).
He gained his first diplomatic experience in the Swiss legation in Austria from 1918 to 1922, a chaotic period
following the collapse of Austria-Hungary. While there, he became acquainted with Hugo von Hofmannsthal.

Mit dem Danziger Senatspräsidenten Greiser, der später im besetzten Polen grausam wütete, verstand sich Burckhardt
so gut, daß er sich sogar zu Denunziationen hinreißen ließ: Bei einem hohen Senatsbeamten mokierte sich Burckhardt
über den "übereifrigen" französischen Generalkonsul, der im polnischen Gdingen Kontakte zu "Juden und
Sozialdemokraten" unterhalte.
Die Verfolgung der Juden hielt der konservativ-autoritäre Burckhardt, wie viele seiner Zeitgenossen, für eine
häßliche, aber unbedeutende Nebensache. Anders als jene glaubte er zudem felsenfest an die baldige Zähmung des
Nationalsozialismus.
Deshalb versuchte er mit allen Mitteln, eine Verständigung zwischen dem Reich und Großbritannien einzufädeln.
Denn der einzige wirkliche Feind, glaubte der Schweizer, sei der Bolschewismus.

Sir Anthony Buzzard UK military 55 II


1951-1954 Director of Naval Intelligence
Rear-Admiral Sir Anthony Wass Buzzard, 2nd Baronet CB, DSO, OBE (28 April 1902 – 10 March 1972), was an
officer in the Royal Navy, and a Director of Naval Intelligence.
In 1951, at the age of forty- nine, Buzzard became the youngest man to be appointed Director of Naval Intelligence.
He was also a rear-admiral. His independence, however, prevented him from going further in the bureaucratic system.
He was in the post until his retirement in 1954.

After his retirement from the service he joined the defence contractor Vickers-Armstrong, during the Cold War.
Buzzard was a founder member of both the Institute of Strategic Studies [IISS?], and the Council of Christian
Approaches to Defence and Disarmament. He frequently corresponded with Henry Kissinger, and developed the
idea of “Graduated Deterrence.” Graduated Deterrence posited that one must issue a reasonable threat to one’s
enemy that is also realizable and not so massive that no one believes that it will ever happen. During the 1960s he sat
on the Minister of State for Disarmament, Lord Chalfont's Disarmament Panel. In 1967 he became Chairman of the
British Council of Churches Committee on the Middle East.

Ahmad Chalabi Iraq politician 06


1944-2015
Chalabi was the son of a prominent Shi'a family, one of the wealthy power elite of Baghdad.
After military came to power, he and his family left Iraq in 1958 and spent most of his life in UK and USA.
During his life he was accused of corruption many times.
Living abroad by 1992 in London, prohibited to return for fear of his life, he set up the Iraqi National Congress with
an agenda of regime change for his homeland. The organization was open to all ethnic Iraqis - Kurds and Arabs - as
well as Sunnis and Shias. Already a fluent English speaker, he turned his attention to Washington DC.
In 1995 after preparation and lobbying he persuaded President Clinton to fund an expedition into northern Iraq to use
subterfuge to start an insurgency. Chalabi was convinced that the Iraqi military would rise up to usurp the dictator.
The commanders to whom he had spoken, were the same who openly supported Saddam and crushed his opponents in
the Kurdish and Shi'ite revolts. The insurgency failed, lacked the promised ground troops, and 100 insurgents were
killed by the military. The command structure of INC fell apart with factional infighting. Chalabi was banned from
those frequent visits to CIA HQ at Langley, Virginia.
Before the Iraq War (2003), Chalabi enjoyed close political and business relationships with some members of the U.S.
government, including some prominent neoconservatives within the Pentagon. Chalabi was said to have had political
contacts within the Project for the New American Century, most notably with Paul Wolfowitz and Richard Perle.
The CIA was largely skeptical of Chalabi and the INC, but information allegedly from his group (most famously from
a defector codenamed "Curveball") made its way into intelligence dossiers used by President George W. Bush and
British Prime Minister Tony Blair to justify an invasion of Iraq. "Curveball", Rafid Ahmed Alwan al-Janabi, fed
officials hundreds of pages of bogus "firsthand" descriptions of mobile biological weapons factories on wheels and
rails. Secretary of State Colin Powell later used this information in a U.N. presentation trying to garner support for
the war, despite warnings from German intelligence that "Curveball" was fabricating claims. Since then, the CIA has
admitted that the defector made up the story, and Powell said in 2011 the information should not have been used in
his presentation.
After the war, given the lack of discovery of WMDs, most of the WMD claims of the INC were shown to have been
either misleading, exaggerated, or completely made up while INC information about the whereabouts of Saddam
Hussein's loyalists and Chalabi's personal enemies were accurate.

4.2005-1.2006 Minister of Oil


5.2005-5.2006 Deputy Prime Minister
In November 2005, Chalabi traveled to the U.S. and met with top U.S. government officials, including Vice President
Dick Cheney, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley. At this time
Chalabi also traveled to Iran to meet with Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
In October 2007, Chalabi was appointed by Prime Minister Nouri al Maliki to head the Iraqi services committee, a
consortium of eight service ministries and two Baghdad municipal posts tasked with the "surge" plan's next phase,
restoring electricity, health, education and local security services to Baghdad neighborhoods. "The key is going to be
getting the concerned local citizens—and all the citizens—feeling that this government is reconnected with them....
[Chalabi] agrees with that," said Gen. David Petraeus. Chalabi "is an important part of the process," said Col. Steven
Boylan, Petraeus' spokesman. "He has a lot of energy." In April 2008, journalist Melik Kaylan wrote about Chalabi,
"Arguably, he has, more than anyone in the country, evolved a detailed sense of what ails Baghdadis and how to fix
things."
He was also the subject of a 2008 biography by investigative journalist Aram Roston, The Man Who Pushed America
to War: The Extraordinary Life, Adventures, And Obsessions of Ahmad Chalabi and a 2011 biography by 60 Minutes
producer Richard Bonin, Arrows of the Night: Ahmad Chalabi's Long Journey to Triumph in Iraq.
In January 2012, a French intelligence official stated that they believed Chalabi to be an Iranian agent.
Chalabi died on 3 November 2015, four days after his 71st birthday, having apparently suffered a heart attack at his
home in Kadhimiya, Baghdad

The Colonna family is an Italian noble family. It was powerful in medieval and Renaissance Rome, supplying one
Pope and many other Church and political leaders. The family is notable for its bitter feud with the Orsini family over
influence in Rome, until it was stopped by Papal Bull in 1511. In 1571, the heads of both families married nieces of
Pope Sixtus V. Thereafter, historians recorded that "no peace had been concluded between the princes of
Christendom, in which they had not been included by name"

The Colonna family have been Prince Assistants to the Papal Throne since 1710, though their papal princely title only
dates from 1854.

The main 'Colonna di Paliano' family is represented today by Prince Marcantonio Colonna di Paliano, Prince and
Duke of Paliano (b. 1948), whose heir is Don Giovanni Andrea Colonna di Paliano (b. 1975), and by Don Prospero
Colonna di Paliano, Prince of Avella (b. 1956), whose heir is Don Filippo Colonna di Paliano (b. 1995).
The 'Colonna di Stigliano' line is represented by Don Prospero Colonna di Stigliano, Prince of Stigliano (b. 1938),
whose heir is his nephew Don Stefano Colonna di Stigliano (b. 1975).

On July 21, 2015, Cotton and Mike Pompeo alleged the existence of secret side agreements between Iran and the
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on procedures for inspection and verification of Iran's nuclear activities
under the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action nuclear deal. Obama administration officials acknowledged the
existence of agreements between Iran and the IAEA governing the inspection of sensitive military sites, but denied
the characterization that they were "secret side deals", calling them standard practice in crafting arms-control pacts
and arguing the administration had provided information about them to Congress.
In November 2017, the New York Times reported that Cotton was a potential choice to succeed CIA Director Mike
Pompeo.

Alfred Dallinger AUT trade union/politician 79


1980-1989 Bundesminister für Soziales
Er war ein Verfechter der Arbeitszeitverkürzung auf eine 35-Stunden-Woche. Seine umstrittenste Idee war die
einer Wertschöpfungsabgabe zur Sicherung des Sozialversicherungssystems. Von der Opposition, den
Wirtschaftsvertretern und der Presse wurde diese Idee als „Maschinensteuer“ kritisiert.
Am 23. Februar 1989 war Alfred Dallinger Passagier einer Maschine der Rheintalflug, die von Wien-Schwechat
kommend beim Landeanflug auf den Flugplatz St. Gallen-Altenrhein bei Rorschach unter ungeklärten Umständen
in den Bodensee stürzte. Alle elf Menschen an Bord verloren bei dem Unglück ihr Leben. Das Grab Dallingers

Alfons Dalma AUT journalist 75


eigentlich: Stjepan „Stipe“ Tomičić, ein kroatisch-österreichischer Journalist
Er wurde von den Dominikanern katholisch erzogen, studierte Politik in Zagreb und Paris und arbeitete später an der
kroatischen Botschaft in Berlin.
1941 bis 1943 war er Redakteur der faschistischen Ustascha-Zeitung Hrvatski Narod in Zagreb.
1945 stellte ihn Gustav Canaval als stellvertretenden Chefredakteur der neu gegründeten Tageszeitung Salzburger
Nachrichten ein. 1946 wurde Dalma österreichischer Staatsbürger. Im Frühjahr 1950 war er für die Veröffentlichung
der von Mussolini als Pontinische und sardische Gedanken betitelten Aufzeichnungen unter dem Titel "Mussolinis
Tagebuch" verantwortlich, die in acht aufeinander folgenden Teilen erschienen. Dalma blieb bis 1952 bei den SN.
1967 holte ihn der neue Generalintendant des ORF, Gerd Bacher [Freund von OWA, der bestens bescheid wusste um
was es bei Bilderberg ging und versuchte Kohl zur Teilnahme zu bewegen dessen Medienberater er von 1974 bis
1978 war], als Chefredakteur zum staatlichen Österreichischen Rundfunk.
1974, als die erste Bacher-Ära beim ORF aus politischen Gründen beendet wurde, ging Dalma bis 1986 für den
ORF als Rom-Korrespondent nach Italien.
Dalmas frühe journalistische Karriere für Propagandablätter des faschistischen Ustascha-Regimes (etwa deren
Zentralorgan Hrvatski Narod) war immer wieder Gegenstand von Kritik. Diese soll auch zu seiner Absetzung als
ORF-Chefredakteur im Jahr 1974 geführt haben.

1993-2001 Eli Lilly & co.
Eli Lilly experienced dramatic growth during Daniels' tenure at the company. Prozac sales made up 30–40% of Lilly's
income during the mid-to-late 1990s, and Lilly doubled its assets to $12.8 billion and doubled its revenue to $10
billion during the same period. When Daniels later became Governor of Indiana, he drew heavily on his former Lilly
colleagues to serve as advisers and agency managers
2001-2003 Director, Office of Management and Budget
In this role he was also a member of the National Security Council and the Homeland Security Council.
Bush referred to him as "the Blade," for his noted acumen at budget cutting. The $2.13 trillion budget Daniels
submitted to Congress in 2001 would have made deep cuts in many agencies to accommodate the tax cuts being
made, but few of the spending cuts were actually approved by Congress.
Between September 2001 and October 2012, lawmakers appropriated about $1.4 trillion for operations in both the
war in Iraq and Afghanistan [instead of app. 50 billion that Daniels expected]

German descent. His paternal grandparents were Volga Germans
1969-1972 intelligence officer with the Strategic Air Command, Air Force
When the 107th Congress commenced on January 3, 2001, the Senate was evenly divided—that is, there were 50
Democrats and 50 Republicans. Outgoing Vice President Al Gore acted in his constitutional capacity as ex officio
President of the Senate, and used his tie-breaking vote to give the Democrats the majority in that chamber. For the
next two weeks, Daschle served as Senate Majority Leader. Then, upon the commencement of the Bush
administration on January 20, 2001, Dick Cheney became President of the Senate, thereby returning Democrats to the
minority in that body; Daschle reverted to the position of Senate Minority Leader. However, on June 6, 2001, Senator
Jim Jeffords of Vermont announced in that he was leaving the Senate Republican caucus to become an independent
and to caucus with Democrats; this once again returned control of the body to the Democrats and Daschle again
became Majority Leader.
Democratic losses in the November 2002 elections returned the party to the minority in the Senate in January 2003
and Daschle once more reverted to being Minority Leader.
Daschle recounted his Senate experiences from 2001 to 2003 in his first book, Like No Other Time: The 107th
Congress and the Two Years That Changed America Forever ISBN 9781400049554, published in 2003
In October 2001, while he was the Senate Majority Leader, Daschle's office received a letter containing anthrax,
becoming a target of the 2001 anthrax attacks
In the 2004 Senate election, John Thune defeated Daschle by 4,508 votes, 50.5% to 49.4%
Throughout the campaign, Thune, along with Frist, President George W. Bush, and Vice President Cheney, frequently
accused Daschle of being the "chief obstructionist" of Bush's agenda and charged him with using filibusters to block
confirmation of several of Bush's nominees.
Senior fellow, Center for American Progress
2006- ongoing Member, CFR
In an appearance on Meet the Press on February 12, 2006, former Senator Daschle endorsed a controversial
warrantless surveillance program conducted by the National Security Agency (NSA), explaining that he had been
briefed on the program while he was the Democratic leader in the Senate
member, Global Leadership Foundation
During the 2008 presidential campaign, Daschle served as a key advisor to Obama and one of the national co-chairs
for Obama's campaign
Two days later, sources indicated Daschle "is interested in universal health care and might relish serving as HHS
secretary." In the general election campaign, Daschle continued to consult Obama, campaign for him across swing
states, and advise his campaign organization until Obama was ultimately elected the 44th President of the United
States on November 4, 2008.
Daschle claims he was asked by vice president Dick Cheney "not to investigate" the events of 9/11.
He told reporters, "the vice president expressed the concern that a review of what happened on September 11 would
take resources and personnel away from the effort in the war on terrorism. I acknowledged that concern, and it is for
that reason that the Intelligence Committee is going to begin this effort, trying to limit the scope and the overall
review of what happened. But clearly, I think the American people are entitled to know what happened and why."

Herta Däubler-Gmelin GER politician 89


1972-2009 Member, Bundestag
1998-2002 Justice Minister
On 18 September 2002, four days before Schröder's re-election, she attended a meeting at a restaurant in Derendingen

(near Tübingen) with about 30 trade unionists from two local factories (the topic was "Globalization and Labor").

Däubler-Gmelin, who has long been known for her outspokenness, later said she had been unaware that a reporter

from local newspaper Schwäbisches Tagblatt was present, insisting that she regarded the event as an internal meeting.
After discussion had turned to the Iraq crisis, she remarked that U.S. president Bush was preparing a war to detract
from domestic problems such as the economic crisis at the time, and that this was a popular political strategy which
had already been used by Adolf Hitler. When some participants showed disagreement, she added immediately that
this was not meant to liken Bush to Hitler as a person, but rather to compare their methods, and that British prime

minister Margaret Thatcher had also used the 1982 Falklands War to improve election prospects. She also described
the U.S. legal system as "lousy".
This was the version published by Schwäbisches Tagblatt (a paper widely regarded as liberal to leftist and respected
for its journalistic quality), which later stated that Däubler-Gmelin herself had confirmed the wording of the report, as
well as several present at the meeting. Another account of the meeting states that the Hitler comparison originated
from a participant and that Däubler-Gmelin had merely agreed that Hitler had used such tactics, too.
Immediately after the article had been published, Däubler-Gmelin strongly denied it, claiming to have been
misquoted. She also announced that she would sue the Schwäbische Tagblatt, but later chose not to do so. She
encountered heavy criticism for expressing anti-americanism by many both in Germany and abroad, including
members of the U.S. government such as Ari Fleischer and Condoleezza Rice [BB 08]. On September 20, Däubler-
Gmelin called U.S. Ambassador Dan Coats to state that the reports had no basis and Schröder wrote an apology letter
to Bush, stating "there is no place at my cabinet table for anyone who makes a connection between the American
president and such a criminal." He did not force her to resign immediately, claiming to trust her denial of the
quotation, but she was dropped from his new cabinet when it was formed a few weeks after his narrow re-election.
Between 2012 and 2013, Däubler-Gmelin served as member of the European Commission’s High Level Group on
Media Freedom and Pluralism, an adivsory panel set up by European Commissioner Neelie Kroes and chaired by
Vaira V??e-Freiberga.
She has voiced her support for the Campaign for the Establishment of a United Nations Parliamentary Assembly, an
organisation which campaigns for democratic reform in the United Nations, and the creation of a more accountable
international political system.
From 2012 to 2014, Däubler-Gmelin represented political group “Mehr Demokratie e.V.” (More Democracy) in its
unsuccessful constitutional complaint before the Federal Constitutional Court against Germany’s participation in the
European Stability Mechanism (ESM) and the European Fiscal Compact.

Sefton Delmer UK journalist 56


The first British journalist to interview Adolf Hitler, in April 1931.
In the 1932 German federal election, Delmer travelled with Hitler aboard his private aircraft. He was also present in
1933 when Hitler inspected the aftermath of the Reichstag fire. During this period, Delmer was criticised for being a
Nazi sympathiser and, for a time, the British government thought he was in the pay of the Nazis. At the same time,
the Nazi leaders were convinced Delmer was a member of MI6; his denials of any involvement only served to
strengthen their belief that he was not only a member, but an important one.
In September 1940, Delmer was recruited by the Political Warfare Executive to lead a black propaganda campaign
against Hitler by radio from England, so successful that he was named in the Nazis' Black Book for immediate arrest
after their invasion of England.
After the Second World War, Delmer became chief foreign affairs reporter for the Daily Express. Over the next fifteen
years, he covered nearly every major foreign news story for the newspaper. Sacked by Lord Beaverbrook in 1959
over an expenses issue.

* 1926
Although he was only 26 when he wrote his first book, Automation, published by Van Nostrand in 1952 based on his
studies at the Harvard Business School, independent research and ever-persistent curiosity about the whole field of
technology, he originated many of the concepts of data processing and utilization that are accepted today in both
automation and management. This book was reissued unchanged on its 30th anniversary as a “management classic”
by the American Management Association. He is credited with coining the word automation in its present meaning,
and had much to do with introducing it to general usage.

1954 founded John Diebold & Associates, Inc. consulting in automation and management; later known as The
Diebold Group, Inc., the international management consulting firm -, sold to Daimler-Benz in 1991.
John Diebold & Associates,Inc. soon grew into The Diebold Group, Inc., which played a unique and often central role
in the development of the information technology(IT) industry. John Diebold and his company were responsible for
the creation of new products and services as well as in the definition of the IT role in the management of businesses
and governments. His original wish to play a role in and to contribute to the development of a few of the formative
issues that changes the world in which we live was fulfilled.

1967-2004 Member, CFR


1968 founded The Diebold Institute for Public Policy Studies, Inc., an operating foundation to apply advanced

born in Germany, immigrated to USA as a child
served in Military Intelligence Corps during World War II
education: SAIS
1965-1970 Ambassador in Saudi Arabia
1972-1973 Ambassador in Bangladesch
1974-1979 Ambassador in Egypt
He aided former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger during the 1974-75 period of shuttle diplomacy and became close
to Egyptian President Anwar Sadat during the tense negotiations with Israel in 1977 and 1978.
That alliance, as well as his standing as a leading American in the region, apparently prompted Libyan leader
Muammar Gaddafi to send hit squads to Cairo in search of Mr. Eilts. U.S. intelligence agencies discovered the plot,
and President Jimmy Carter immediately warned Gaddafi that he would be held responsible if Mr. Eilts was harmed.
1977-2006 Member, CFR
In 1982 he established the Center of International Relations (CIR) at Boston University, which became the
Department of International Relations in 1988, with Amb. Eilts as its founding Chair. Later, this was to become the
core of Boston University's new school of international affairs, the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies, in
2014.

Uffe Ellemann-Jensen succeeded in convincing a majority in the Danish Parliament, Folketinget, to actively support
the US led coalition against Iraq during the Gulf War. Furthermore, he led the Danish recognition of the renewed
independence of the three Baltic countries in 1991, when Denmark was the first country to re-establish diplomatic
relations with the three countries.
1995-2000 President, European Liberals
In 1995, Ellemann-Jensen was a candidate for the post of Secretary-General of NATO when Willy Claes was forced
to leave the role. He got the support of the U.S. government, but France blocked his candidature, preferring the
Spanish candidate, Javier Solana [BB 85, 98, 2000, 10, 11]. Ellemann-Jensen never tried to hide his disappointment
with not getting the post that he had wanted all his political life.
1998- Chairman, Baltic Development Forum
On 18 December 2002, Ellemann-Jensen was awarded the Grand Cross of the Order of Dannebrog. It is very unusual
for a politician in Denmark not having been Prime Minister to be awarded the Grand Cross.

He joined the Italian fascist party supporting the corporatist ideas of the regime promoting collaboration between the
classes, which he defended in many articles. "Some day," he once wrote, "the European continent will be organized
into a vast supranational area guided by Italy and Germany. Those areas will take authoritarian governments and
synchronize their constitutions with Fascist principles."

he was elected vice-secretary of the newly founded Christian Democratic Party. He was as one of the youngest party
leaders and a protégé of Alcide De Gasperi, the undisputed leader of the party for the following decade. Fanfani
represented a particular ideological position, that of conservative Catholics who favoured socio-economic
interventionism, which was very influential in the 1950s and 1960s but which gradually lost its appeal. "Capitalism
requires such a dread of loss," he once wrote, "such a forgetfulness of human brotherhood, such a certainty that a
man's neighbour is merely a customer to be gained or a rival to be overthrown, and all these are inconceivable in the
Catholic conception ... There is an unbridgeable gulf between the Catholic and the capitalist conception of life."
Private economic initiative, in his view, was justifiable only if harnessed to the common good.

Under de Gasperi, Fanfani took on a succession of ministries. He was Minister of Labour from 1947–1948 and again
from 1948–1950; Minister of Agriculture from 1951–1953; as well as Minister of the Interior in 1953 in the caretaker
government of Giuseppe Pella.

After the death of De Gasperi, from 1954 to the mid-1960s Fanfani's weight both in the party and in national politics
was at its height. He served as Prime Minister in several of governments, some of them short-lived. His first
government in 1954 lasted only 21 days when it failed to win approval in the Parliament. As Minister of the Interior,
with orders to step up measures against Communist subversion, Fanfani had named young (35) Giulio Andreotti,
another protégé of De Gasperi.
He became head of government again from July 1958 to January 1959, when his steamroller tactics lost him the
support of his own Christian Democratic colleagues. He learned from the experience, and became wiser in the ways
of cooperating and compromising. From July 1960 to February 1962 and from February 1962 to May 1963 he was the
prime minister once more, securing the support of the Italian Socialist Party (Italian: Partito Socialista Italiano, PSI),
thus involving the centre-left in Italian politics.
He had been a leading proponent of such an "opening to the centre-left" for years. The opportunity arose when a
liberal Pope, John XXIII, was elected in 1958, and the Socialists loosened their ties with the Communists.

A strong supporter of the European Economic Community (EEC), Fanfani was foreign minister in 1965 and in 1966-
68. He also served (1965–66) as president of the United Nations General Assembly - he is the only Italian to have
held this office.

1970 she was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. She served as the board's first female president in
1978, during which time the assassinations of Mayor George Moscone and City Supervisor Harvey Milk drew
national attention to the city. Feinstein succeeded Moscone as mayor. On November 27, 1978, Moscone and
supervisor Harvey Milk were assassinated by a rival politician, Dan White, who had resigned from the Board of
Supervisors two weeks earlier. Feinstein was in City Hall at the time of the shootings and discovered Milk's body
after hearing the shots. Later that day Feinstein announced the assassinations to the public.

Douglas Feith USA politician CFR 04

His official responsibilities included the formulation of defense planning guidance and forces policy, United States
Department of Defense (DoD) relations with foreign countries, and DoD's role in U.S. government interagency
policymaking.
Upon his resignation, Feith joined the faculty of the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown
University, as a professor and distinguished practitioner in national security policy for a two-year contract
Feith is the director of the Center for National Security Strategies and a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute
His appointment was facilitated by connections he had with other neoconservatives, including Richard Perle [BB 17x
83-15] and Paul Wolfowitz [BB 12x 90-09]. With his new appointment in hand, Feith proved influential in having
Richard Perle chosen as chairman of the Defense Policy Board. Feith was criticized during the first term of the Bush
administration for creating the Office of Strategic Influence. This office came into existence to support the War on
Terror. The office's aim was to influence policymakers by submitting biased news stories into the foreign media. Feith
played a significant role in the buildup to the Iraq war. As part of his portfolio, he supervised the Pentagon Office of
Special Plans, a group of policy and intelligence analysts created to provide senior government officials with raw
intelligence, unvetted by the intelligence community. The office, eventually dismantled, was later criticized in
Congress and the media for analysis that was contradicted by CIA analysis and investigations performed following
the invasion of Iraq. General Tommy Franks, who led both the 2001 invasion of Afghanistan and the Iraq War, once
called Feith "the dumbest fucking guy on the planet"
The Defense Department’s Inspector General found that Feith’s secretive groups at the Pentagon “developed,
produced, and then disseminated” deceptive intelligence that contradicted “the consensus of the Intelligence
Community.” These groups are still under investigation by the Senate Intelligence Committee. [Washington Post,
1/27/05;Georgetown press release, 5/1/06; NYT, 2/9/07]
Feith is an ardent supporter of Israel.
Feith also served on the board of the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA), a think tank that promotes
a military and strategic alliance between the United States and Israel. Feith was one of the eighteen founding
members of the organization One Jerusalem to oppose the Oslo peace agreement. Its purpose is "saving a united
Jerusalem as the undivided capital of Israel." He is also director of the Foundation for Jewish Studies, which "offers
in-depth study programs for the adult Washington Jewish community that cross denominational lines.
On April 8, 2008, Feith's memoir, War and Decision: Inside the Pentagon at the Dawn of the War on Terrorism, was
published by HarperCollins.

Ultimately, the position went to Bernanke, possibly because Feldstein was a board member of AIG, which announced
the same year that it would restate five years of past financial reports by $2.7 billion. Subsequently, AIG suffered a
massive financial collapse that played a central role in the worldwide economic crisis of 2007–08 and the ensuing
global recession.
ca. 2007-2015 Member, Trilateral Commission
2007-2009 board member, President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board
On February 6, 2009, Feldstein was announced as one of U.S. President Obama's advisors on the President's
Economic Recovery Advisory Board
2011 Bloomberg Markets Magazine: Top 50 most influential
George F. Baker Professor für Wirtschaftswissenschaften an der Harvard University sowie Vorsitzender des
National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER). Feldstein war Vorsitzender des Council of Economic Advisers und
wichtigster Berater in Wirtschaftsfragen für US-Präsident Ronald Reagan von 1982 bis 1984. Von 1987 bis 2009 war
er im Vorstand der American International Group, Inc. Martin Feldstein belonged to the supervisory board of AIG for
twenty years, and was thereby directly involved in their ruinous business model.
Feldstein may have made one of his greatest impacts through the concentration of his students in top echelons of
government and academia.

The book examines what Ferguson calls the most "interesting question" of our day:
"Why, beginning around 1500, did a few small polities on the western end of the
Eurasian landmass come to dominate the rest of the world?" The Economist in a
review wrote:
"Mr Ferguson starts with the overwhelming success of European civilisation. In
1500 Europe's future imperial powers controlled 10% of the world's territories and
generated just over 40% of its wealth. By 1913, at the height of empire, the West
controlled almost 60% of the territories, which together generated almost 80% of
the wealth.“

FitzGerald's policy towards Northern Ireland, however, brought him into
confrontation with the Roman Catholic church, whose "special position" in the
Republic had been enshrined in the Constitution until the Referendum of
December 1972. FitzGerald in 1973 met Cardinal Secretary of State Agostino
Casaroli and proposed to further modify the Republic's Constitution to remove
laws with overtly Catholic foundations, such as the bans on divorce and
contraception, as well as to relax the public stigmas in Northern Ireland towards
mixed religious marriages and integrated education. Casaroli at first seemed
receptive, and the Government formally submitted the proposal to the Vatican.
FitzGerald's vision caused great consternation among the church's hierarchy,
however, and in 1977 Pope Paul VI personally met with FitzGerald to tell him that
"Ireland was a Catholic country – perhaps the only one left – and it should stay
that way. Laws should not be changed in any way that would make the country less
Catholic."

The Elf scandal which came to light in 1994 in France was according to The
Guardian, 'the biggest fraud inquiry in Europe since the Second World War... Elf
became a private bank for executives who spent £200 million on political favours,
mistresses, jewellery, fine art, villas and apartments'. Iraqi-born Nadhmi Auchi, at
that time rumoured to be among the ten richest men of Britain, received a 15-
month suspended sentence and a £1.5m fine for his involvement taking illegal
commissions. Auchi was also linked to the Clearstream scandal. He is BNP Paribas
bank's main private share-holder; and until 2001, the money for the Oil-for-Food
programme transited through the escrow account of BNP Paribas. Magistrate Eva
Joly investigated the case. In the Leuna/Minol deal following German
reunification, Elf Aquitaine took over circa 2,500 vacated gas station allottments in
the former East Germany without paying the rightful owners.

better, but still rocky at times.
Fortescue does not get on with Vitorino’s chef de cabinet António Cavaco
Servinho, whom insiders say he sees as superfluous. And some worry there are
deep-rooted ideological differences between a right-leaning director-general,
determined to clamp down on crime, and a more liberal-minded commissioner,

On 5 May 1945, Foulkes summoned German General Blaskowitz to the Hotel de Wereld ("Hotel the World") in
Wageningen to discuss the surrender of German forces in the Netherlands. His Royal Highness Prince Bernhard,
acting as commander in chief of the Dutch Interior Forces, attended the meeting as well. Blaskowitz agreed with all
of the proposals made by Foulkes. However, nowhere in the building – some sources claim: nowhere in the whole
town – could a typewriter be found. Thus the surrender document could not be typed. The next day both parties
returned, and in the presence of both General Foulkes and Prince Bernhard, Blaskowitz signed the surrender
document which in the meantime had been typed.

Fraga authorized the execution of political prisoners under the Francoist State. A notable case is the execution of
communist leader Julián Grimau, whom he called "that little gentleman" (Spanish: ese caballerete) in a press
conference when asked about his detention and death sentence. His death sentence caused a large controversy outside
of Spain. Grimau was executed by firing squad in 1963. Fraga never publicly apologized or expressed regret for
Grimau's execution.
he himself favoured an extremely gradual transition to full democracy. The drastic measures he took as interior
minister and head of state security during the first days of the Spanish transition to democracy gave him a reputation
for heavy-handedness, and deeply damaged his popularity. The phrase "¡La calle es mía!" ("Streets are mine!") was
attributed to him as his answer to complaints of police repression of street protests: he claimed that the streets did not
belong to the "people" but to the state. He was known to be an admirer of Cánovas del Castillo. During a clash at the
Church of St. Francis of Assisi in Vitoria (Euskadi) between police and striking workers, on Fraga's orders the police
stormed into a packed church into which 4,000 demonstrators had retreated and went on a shooting spree, resulting in
five dead and over 100 wounded.
Fraga was one of the writers of the new Spanish constitution approved in 1978. Along with other former reformist
members of the Francoist State, he founded the People's Alliance (Alianza Popular – AP), and became its president.
Although he tried to brand the party as a mainstream conservative party, the people did not trust him due to large
number of former Francoists in the party, combined with his performance as interior minister. The party fared poorly
in its first years, but after the 1982 crisis and the collapse of the UCD, the centrist party that had won the first two
democratic elections, AP became the second party in Spain.

In February 2009, unnamed sources leaked that Freeman was Director of National Intelligence Dennis C. Blair's
choice to chair the National Intelligence Council in the Obama administration. After several weeks of criticisms from
prominent supporters of Israeli policy, he withdrew his name from consideration and charged that he had been the
victim of a concerted campaign by what he called "the Israel lobby".

Friedman was the Chairman of the New York Federal Reserve Board, a body which implements the Wall Street
policies of the Federal Reserve, during a period of immense financial market upheaval, from January 2008
until May 7, 2009. When Goldman Sachs was converted to a bank holding company in September 2008 the bank
then came under the regulatory authority of the New York Fed, which made Friedman’s position as a member of
Goldman Sachs’ board a violation of Federal Reserve policy. At the time of the conversion Friedman requested a
waiver from this violation, which was granted about 10 weeks later.

In February 2002, Friedman met Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah and encouraged him to make a comprehensive attempt
to end the Arab–Israeli conflict by normalizing Arab relations with Israel in exchange for the return of refugees
alongside an end to the Israel territorial occupations. Abdullah proposed the Arab Peace Initiative at the Beirut

the president for economic speechwriting from January 2001 to February 2002. Conservative commentator
Robert Novak described Frum as an "uncompromising supporter of Israel" and "fervent supporter of Ariel Sharon's
policies" during his time in the White House. Frum is credited with inventing the expression "axis of evil", which
Bush introduced in his 2002 State of the Union address. During Frum's time at the White House, he was described by
commentator Ryan Lizza, as being part of a speechwriting brain trust that brought "intellectual heft", and
considerable policy influence to the Bush Administration.
Frum strongly supported the Iraq War.

On August 7, 1964, a unanimous House of Representatives and all but two members of the Senate voted to approve
the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, which led to a dramatic escalation of the Vietnam War. Fulbright, who not only voted
for but also sponsored the resolution, would later write:
Many Senators who accepted the Gulf of Tonkin resolution without question might well not have done so had they
foreseen that it would subsequently be interpreted as a sweeping Congressional endorsement for the conduct of a
large-scale war in Asia.

Commission was established by a memorandum of understanding on May 2, 1996, between the World Jewish

work was provided by identifying all accounts that were open or opened in Swiss banks during the period 1933-1945.
This yielded some 4.1 million accounts. There were no remaining records for 2.8 million additional accounts.

Architect of the ill-fated link-up with the Italian tyre-maker Pirelli (founders of Pirelli were very active in Bilderberg

55937264.html
„Nur die engsten Mitarbeiter wußten, wohin die Reise ging. Immer häufiger verließen in den vergangenen neun
Monaten Sir Reay Geddes und Leopoldo Pirelli ihre Chefzimmer in der Londoner Dunlop-Verwaltung und im
Mailänder Pirelli-Haus. Regelmäßig kletterten die beiden Bosse in gecharterte Jets und flogen zu geheimen Treffs
nach Basel oder Frankfurt.
Anfang des Jahres wurden Italiener und Brite handelseinig. In der vorletzten Woche ließen sie in drei minuziös
aufeinander abgestimmten Pressekonferenzen (in Mailand, Basel und London) verkünden; Sir Reay Geddes' Dunlop
Company (102 000 Beschäftigte, 4,3 Milliarden Mark Jahresumsatz) und Leopoldo Pirellis Pirelli SpA (76 000
Beschäftigte, vier Milliarden Mark Jahresumsatz) werden sich zum drittgrößten Reifenkonzern der Welt vereinigen.
Der Zusammenschluß der beiden mächtigsten Reifenfirmen Europas ist die größte internationale Fusion in Europa
seit 1929, als der britisch-holländische Lebensmittelkonzern Unilever entstand. (...) Nur Firestone (8,34 Milliarden
Mark Jahresumsatz) und Goodyear (11,8 Milliarden Mark Umsatz) rangieren noch vor dem europäischen Koloß.
"Wir sind eine Ehe eingegangen", erläuterte Leopoldo Pirelli die Fusion, "bei der man, sich nicht scheiden lassen
kann." Sir Reay Geddes charakterisierte die Art der Zweisamkeit: "Dies ist ein Angriffspakt."
Mit der Gummi-Entente legalisieren die Geschäftsleitungen eine jahrelange Liaison der beiden Partner. Um die
Zollmauern zu überspringen, ließ Dunlop bereits seit langem in Pirellis italienischen Werken Dunlop-Reifen
produzieren. Dafür stellte Dunlop in Frankreich Pirelli-Pneus her.“

His mother was a daughter of senator and academic Achille Octave Marie Jacques Bardoux, making her a great-
granddaughter of minister of state education Agénor Bardoux. She was also, through her own mother, a
granddaughter of historian Georges Picot, a niece of diplomat François Georges-Picot, and a great-great-great-
granddaughter of King Louis XV of France by one of his mistresses, Catherine Eléonore Bernard (1740–1769),
through her great-grandfather Marthe Camille Bachasson, Count of Montalivet, by whom Giscard d'Estaing was a
multiple descendant of Charlemagne.
Giscard is not descended from the extinct noble family of Vice-Admiral d'Estaing, that name being adopted by his
[2]
grandfather in 1922 by reason of a distant connection to another branch of that family, from which they were
descended with two breaks in the male line from an illegitimate line of the Viscounts d'Estaing.
During the 1969 presidential campaign he supported the winning candidate Georges Pompidou, after which he
returned to the Ministry of Economy and Finance. On the French political scene, he appeared as a young brilliant
politician, and a preeminent expert in economic issues. He was representative of a new generation of politicians
emerging from the senior civil service, seen as "technocrats".
In 1974, after the sudden death of President Pompidou, Giscard announced his candidacy for the presidency.
Giscard narrowly defeated Mitterrand, receiving 50.7% of the vote

Anthony George Scott was born on Aug. 15, 1911, in Buckinghamshire, England, to Canadian parents.
The family lived in some opulence, both in London and Toronto, as Mabel ’s father, Sir William Mackenzie, was one
of founders of what would become the Canadian National Railway.
After the war, Mr. joined the Wartime Prices and Trade Board, which was dismantling the total government control
of the economy during the war, when Ottawa set everything from food prices to rents. He then joined External Affairs
in the economic division, at first trying to re-establish the cotton trade between Canada and Britain. During the war,
trade patterns had altered; Canada was forced to trade more with the United States than with Britain, something that
has continued to the present.
After six years of government service, during which he met many international business types, Mr. started to receive
offers to leave External. One of them was from Siegmund Warburg, the German banker who had fled Nazi Germany
for the city of London, where he founded his bank, S.G. Warburg. Mr. met with Mr. Warburg in Toronto.
Back in Toronto Mr. started a subsidiary of S.G. Warburg called Triarch Corporation in 1953. It worked on deals,
including the acquisition of The Globe and Mail by Montreal financier Howard Webster.
The Warburg connection flourished and Tony rose to the pinnacle of Canadian finance. He was much in demand as a
corporate director and at one time or another was a director of 24 companies, from Consumer’s Gas to Scurry-
Rainbow Oil and numerous financial firms in between.

In 2006 he was rated as the 4th most influential persons in De Volkskrant's annual list of Most Influential Dutchmen
In 2007 the bank was sold to a consortium of three international banks after a take-over struggle. Groenink preferred
a complete takeover by Barclays but the combined share-holders preferred the higher offer from the consortium.
The takeover by the consortium lead to a split-up of the bank. Some international activities, such as ABN's Italian
daughter Antonveneta and Brazilian Banco Real would go to the Spanish bank Banco Santander.
The retail and private banking as well as the asset management activities of the bank in the Netherlands would go to
the Belgium based bank Fortis while the other international activities would go the RBS.
In March 2007 Groenink was proposed as new board-member of Royal Dutch Shell as successor of Aarnout Loudon.
Shortly after the announcement discussion broke out: people thought that Groenink should concentrate on his role at
the bank, especially because a fierce bidding-war had started between the consortium and Barclays. A large stock-
holder in both Shell and ABN AMRO, the ABP - the pension fund for all government and education personnel - was
against his appointment. The ABP thought that Groenink hadn't worked in the best interests of the shareholders of the
bank by defending the Barclays offer instead of the RFS offer. On 14 May 2007 - one day before the AGM Groenink
withdrew his availability for the position.
Both RBS and Fortis were hit very hard by the 2008 Banking Crisis and the following general financial economical
crisis. In the United Kingdom the government nationalized the RBS Group and in Belgium the Dutch and Belgian
government had to step in to avoid Fortis going bankrupt. Although the ABN AMRO takeover was not the root cause
of these banks' problems it worsened their financial situation and one of the results is that the rebranding of the Dutch
parts of ABN Amro to Fortis Bank is reversed: all Dutch activities of Fortis Bank Nederland NV have been bought by
the Dutch government and as a result the bank is a 100% state owned bank and marketed under the name ABN-Amro.

Grosser opposed many Israeli government policies, as well as parts of the French government. When asked to
describe the way his statements are received, he referred to the "Moral club" (Moralkeule, as a stick), a phrase coined
by writer Martin Walser. In 1998, when one of Walser's speeches created huge controversy, Grosser publicly sided
with Walser.
„I am supporting Martin Walser's idea of the Auschwitz-club [as a stick]. Yes, I see that club, that is waved constantly
against Germans when they say something against Israel. When they do so still, then the club says directly: "I hit you
with Auschwitz". I find that unbearable. I have always fought anti-Semitism. And I will do it again! But equalizing
criticizing Israel with anti-Semitism directly – that is dishonest and leads to mistakes.“ Alfred Grosser, 2007
Grosser also holds to the opinion that Israel's politics inherently invoke anti-semitism. In 2003, Grosser left the board
of magazine L’Express because he believed its reporting on the Middle East was unbalanced.

World War II Resistance leader
In August 2008 signs were found of Hauge having been employed by Office of Strategic Services(OSS). His name
was found in a directory of personnel files of employees from 1942 to 1945—released by the US National Archives in
2008, according to Klassekampen. (Other Norwegians on the list were Wilhelm Hansteen, Håkon Kyllingmark and
Knut Lier Hansen.)
11.1945- Defense Minister
1949 according to Bergens Tidende then Labour Party secretary and Hauge "were
decisive forces behind Norway's entry into NATO - against strong resistance within the Labour Party".
Plans for Stay-behind were made, and "Rocambole" was the section pertained to sabotage and commando operations.
His policy about appointing Resistance leaders, in advance of a future military occupation, included: "the total
occupation must produce its own leaders".
At the end of October 1952 Norway's second nuclear reactor (which later was shut down in 1967) was officially
opened by dignitaries.
On 12—13 November 1951, then prime minister forced the party leadership to accept his own upcoming resignation,
and he named his replacement, who thereafter was approved: Oscar Torp.
On 5 January 1952 he resigned as minister of defense.
1955-1.11.1955 Minister of Justice
He lied—while addressing parliament—"about the eavesdropping (romavlytting) of the Communist Party's national
convention".
After 1955 he never held political office, but "continued to exert influence on political processes—sometimes
openly", and sometimes less so.
Hauge helped facilitate the sale of heavy water—for use in plutonium production—to the Israeli nuclear programme,
while he was a board member at Noratom and judicial advisor at Institutt for atomenergi. [which year?]
Hauge also became a monumental figure in the Norwegian War Industry. He became Board Member of several State
owned companies especially within nuclear power and defence systems, including Member of Board of Directors of
Kongsberg Våpenfabrikk, and chairman of Statoil 1972-75.
In Scandinavian Airlines System he was a board member for more than 20 years.

His opposition to appeasement was nourished by his witnessing first-hand a Nuremberg Rallyin 1937, where he met
leading Nazis Hermann Göring, Joseph Goebbels and Heinrich Himmler at an SS cocktail party. He later described
Himmler as "the most evil man I have ever met".
In the summer of 1939, accompanied by his friend Madron Seligman, he travelled to Danzig and Poland. They made
the dangerous return journey by hitchhiking and rail across Germany, through mobilising troops, returning to Britain
just before the declaration of war. [spy?]
In 1960 Macmillan appointed Heath Lord Privy Seal with responsibility for the negotiations to secure the UK's first
attempt to join the European Economic Community (as the European Communitywas then called). British entry was
vetoed by the French President, Charles de Gaulle, at a press conference in January 1963 – much to the
disappointment of Heath, who was a firm supporter of European common market membership for the United
Kingdom. However, he would oversee a successful application when serving in a higher position a decade later.

Hans-Heinrich Herwarth von Bittenfeld GER diplomat 63


Mit Beginn des Zweiten Weltkriegs wurde Herwarth 1939 zur Wehrmacht eingezogen. Wegen einer jüdischen
Großmutter (Julia von Herwarth geb. Haber) waren seine Karriereaussichten als „jüdischer Mischling zweiten
Grades“ eingeschränkt, er wurde jedoch im Laufe des Krieges von Hitler von der Anwendung der Nürnberger Gesetze
ausgenommen. Er war innerhalb des OKW-Amtes in der Abteilung Ausland/Abwehr in der Abwehr II (Diversion,
völkische Zersetzung) tätig. Gemäß seinen Erfahrungen in der Sowjetunion wurde er bei dem Projekt der Osttruppen
des OKH eingesetzt, deren Rahmen auf einer Konferenz – wobei Herwarth Teilnehmer war – Anfang März 1943
abgesteckt wurde. Auch an einer Besprechung im Ostministerium am 18. Dezember 1942 war er Teilnehmer, wobei
die zukünftige Politik der Judenvernichtung in den eroberten Ostgebieten mit den Vertretern des RSHA abgesprochen
wurde.

questioned the whereabouts of missing uranium from an AEC laboratory in Illinois and urged the removal of AEC
chairman David Lilienthal, who claimed no knowledge of the incident. Though the AEC committee declined by a 9 to
8 vote to remove Lilienthal, he nevertheless resigned some six months later, having claimed that his career had been
ruined by the mystery of the missing uranium.

Leif Høegh (1896-1974) ordered his first ship in 1927 and developed an enterprise with a leading position in the
global maritime transportation sector. Leif Høegh found his opportunity in the growing market for oil transportation.
Today the shipping activities are among the world's leading companies in their respective segments
He earned his fortune from tankers on long-term charter-parties and turned to liner shipping in order to
spread his financial exposure.
In addition to leading his company into a prominent position, Leif Høegh also took an active part in international

shipping politics after the Second World War. His main interest was primarily aimed at macro- economics and
politics, as well as international trade and finance, which were interpreted into his own company strategy.

In 2003 the third generation took control of the company. The cousins Leif O. Høegh and Morten Høegh, made an
offer to acquire all outstanding shares in Leif Höegh & Co AS. The offer was well received and the company was
privatised and de-listed. The growth ambitions are carried on.

founder & chairman, LinkedIn
education: Stanford, Oxford (Marshall scholar)
While in college, according to Hoffman, he formed a conviction that he wanted to try to influence the state of the
world on a large scale
"When I graduated from Stanford my plan was to become a professor and public intellectual. That is not about
quoting Kant. It's about holding up a lens to society and asking 'who are we?' and 'who should we be, as individuals
and a society?' But I realised academics write books that 50 or 60 people read and I wanted more impact."
Hoffman was a member of the board of directors during the founding of PayPal, an electronic money transmission
service. In January 2000, he left SocialNet and joined PayPal full-time as the company's COO. Worked for Peter
Thiel [BB 07-17]]. At the time of PayPal's acquisition by eBay for $1.5B in 2002, he was executive vice president of
PayPal.
Hoffman co-founded LinkedIn in December 2002 with two former colleagues from SocialNet (including Allen Blue),
a former college classmate and a former colleague from his time at Fujitsu. It launched on May 5, 2003, as one of the
first business-oriented online social networks. Peter Thiel and Keith Rabois, colleagues of Hoffman's at PayPal,
invested in LinkedIn. By November 2014, LinkedIn had over 332 million members in more than 200 countries and
territories. The site allows registered users to create professional profiles and connect with each other. Users can
invite anyone (whether a site user or not) to become a connection. According to Forbes, “LinkedIn is, far and away,
the most advantageous social networking tool available to job seekers and business professionals today."
After the PayPal sale to eBay, Hoffman became one of Silicon Valley's most prolific and successful angel investors.
According to venture capitalist David Sze, Hoffman "is arguably the most successful angel investor in the past
decade." Dave Goldberg, former CEO of SurveyMonkey, said that Hoffman “is the person you want to talk to when
you are starting a company.”
According to David Kirkpatrick's book The Facebook Effect, Hoffman arranged the first meeting between Mark
Zuckerberg and Peter Thiel, which led to Thiel's initial $500,000 angel investment in Facebook. Hoffman invested
alongside Thiel in Facebook's very first financing round.
2014 The Alliance
The book was released in the United States on July 8, 2014. It argues that previous career models of lifetime
employment and free agency no longer work in a business world defined by continuous change. Instead, it proposes
that employers and employees should think of each other as “allies” and move from a transactional approach to
employment to a “relational” one. It proposes a new framework for managers and employers to organize their work,
described as “tours of duty.” Further, it argues why managers should encourage their employees to gather “network
intelligence” and why companies and managers should maintain a lifelong relationship with former employees via a
corporate alumni network. The book became a New York Times bestseller.
In 2017 he was appointed an Honorary Commander of the Order of the British Empire
In May 2012, Hoffman was ranked third on the Forbes Midas List of the top tech investors. Forbes described
Hoffman as “Silicon Valley's uber-investor” and said Hoffman “has had a hand in creating nearly every lucrative
social media startup.”

As the Vietnam War escalated, President Lyndon Johnson formed a team of Vietnam experts to work in the White
House under the former head of the Phoenix Program, R.W. Komer, in an operation that was separate from the
National Security Council. As a rising young diplomat with significant experience in the country, Holbrooke was
asked to join the group when he was only twenty-four years old (= 1965)
Following his time in the White House, Holbrooke served as a special assistant to Under Secretaries of State (then the
number-two position in the State Department) Nicholas Katzenbach and Elliot Richardson. In 1968, Holbrooke was
asked to be part of the American delegation to the 1968 Paris peace talks, which was led by former New York
Governor Averell Harriman and Deputy Secretary of Defense Cyrus Vance [BB 70]. He also drafted a volume of the
now famous Pentagon Papers, a top-secret report on the government’s decision-making in Vietnam.
1972-1976 Managing Director, Foreign Policy
contributor, Newsweek international
In the summer of 1976, Holbrooke left Foreign Policy to serve as campaign coordinator for national security affairs
to Governor Jimmy Carter (D-GA) in his bid for the White House. During the campaign, Holbrooke helped Carter
prepare for his foreign policy debates with President Gerald Ford. After Carter's victory, Holbrooke followed in the
footsteps of such diplomatic mentors as Philip Habib, Dean Rusk and Averell Harriman and, on March 31, 1977,
became Assistant Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs, making him the youngest person ever to hold
that position. At the same time top adviser to Secretary of State Cyrus Vance [BB 70].
he oversaw a warming with Cold War adversaries in the region, culminating in the normalization of relations with
China in December 1978.
In August 1977, then Assistant Secretary of State, Holbrooke traveled to Indonesia to meet with President Suharto in
the midst of Indonesia's occupation of East Timor, in which over 100,000 East Timorese were ultimately killed or
starved to death. According to Brad Simpson, director of the Indonesia and East Timor Documentation Project at the
National Security Archives, Holbrooke had visited officially to press for human rights reform but, after meeting
Suharto, had instead praised him for Indonesia’s human rights improvements, for the steps that Indonesia had taken to
open East Timor to the West, and for allowing a delegation of congressmen to enter the territory under strict military
guard, where they were greeted by staged celebrations welcoming the Indonesian armed forces.
In January 1981, Holbrooke left government and became both senior advisor to Lehman Brothers and vice president
of Public Strategies, a consulting firm he formed with James A. Johnson
1985-1993 Managing Director, Lehman Brothers
He visited Bosnia twice in 1992 as a private citizen and a member of the board of Refugees International, witnessing
firsthand the damage and devastating human costs of the conflict. This experience committed Holbrooke to pursuing
a more aggressive policy in Balkans and, in a memo to his colleagues, he urged that "Bosnia will be the key test of
American policy in Europe. We must therefore succeed in whatever we attempt.

Holbrooke unexpectedly was appointed Ambassador to Germany. In 1992, Holbrooke was also a member of the
Carnegie Commission on America and a Changing World and Chairman and principal author of the bipartisan
Commission on Government and Renewal, sponsored by the Carnegie Foundationand the Peterson Institute. He was
Chairman and principal author of the "Memo to the President-Elect: Harnessing Process to Purpose," a blue-ribbon
Commission report sponsored by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and the Institute for International
Economics.
While in Germany, Holbrooke also was a key figure in shaping the U.S. policy to promote NATO enlargement, as well
as its approach to the war in Bosnia.
In 1994, while serving as U.S. Ambassador to Germany, he conceived the idea of a cultural exchange center between
the people of Berlin and Americans. With Richard von Weizsäcker, former President of Germany, and Henry A.
Kissinger as co-Chairman, this institution—The American Academy in Berlin—was announced on September 9, 1994,
the day after the U.S. Army Berlin Brigade left Berlin. The American Academy in Berlin opened three years later in a
villa on the Wannsee once owned by the German-Jewish banker Hans Arnhold. It is now one of the most important
links between Germany and the United States.

1994-1996 assistant secretary for European and Canadian Affairs


Holbrooke led the effort to implement the policy to enlarge NATO and had the distinction of leading the
negotiation team charged with resolving the Balkans crisis. In Paris in December 1995, he was the chief
architect of the Dayton Peace Accords which ended a three-and-a-half-year-long war in Bosnia. In 1996, he was
awarded the Manfred Wörner Medal, awarded by the German Ministry of Defense for public figures who have
rendered "special meritorious service to peace and freedom in Europe."

During 1998 and 1999, in his capacity as special presidential envoy, Holbrooke worked to end the conflict
between the armed forces of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA), who
were fighting for an independent Kosovo in the Kosovo War. Holbrooke returned to Bosnia two years later to
the city of Sarajevo. In March 1999 he traveled to Belgrade to deliver the final ultimatum to Yugoslav president
Slobodan Milošević before the NATO attack began.
According to Radovan Karadžić and Muhamed Sacirbey, ex-Bosnian Foreign Minister, Holbrooke signed an
agreement with Karadžić that if the latter withdrew from politics he would not be sent to the Hague tribunal.

In August 1999, Holbrooke was sworn-in as the 22 nd U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations

which was published on the Internet, as did Lord Hurd himself, supposedly the work of disgruntled former SIS (MI6)

Lord Ismay (UK)/INT NATO 55 II


1.8.1938- Secretary of the Committee of Imperial Defence
In April 1940, Winston Churchill took control of the Military Co-ordination Committee, charged with overseeing all
of the military services. He selected Ismay as his chief staff officer, which also gave Ismay the additional
responsibility of serving on the Chiefs of Staff Committee
10.5.1940 Churchill became both Prime Minister and Minister of Defence
According to Churchill, the two developed a close "personal and official connection [that] was preserved unbroken
and unweakened" throughout the war
Ismay was crucial to running the war effort, as he was able to effectively link the military and civilian leadership.
Ismay handled "nearly all military messages" from Churchill to the Service Chiefs.
When the Chiefs of Staff found Churchill's demands unfeasible, Ismay took the role of "converting the Prime
Minister" to their viewpoint
As Churchill's chief military adviser, Ismay frequently attended wartime conferences and meetings of the Allies and
accompanied other British leaders, such as Foreign Minister Anthony Eden, on their travels. Ismay's travel to the
conferences began in 1941, when he went with Lord Beaverbrook to the first Moscow Conference. Because English
participation in the conference was a secret, Ismay faked influenza to explain his absence from London while it was
taking place. The Conference was also the first time that Ismay worked closely with the Americans, whom he found
"quite congenial."
he accompanied Churchill on his 1942 trip to the United States
In January 1943, Ismay accompanied Churchill to the Casablanca Conference. Ismay attended nearly all of the
proceedings of the Conference, and helped work towards consensus where the Americans and British disagreed on
issues. Ismay was also appointed to the committee which wrote the formal report of the conference
After Casablanca, Ismay accompanied Churchill to the third Washington Conference in May 1943
After the Washington Conference came the Quebec Conference in August 1943. Once again, Ismay attended along
with Churchill
Shortly after returning from Quebec, Ismay participated in his next conference, travelling with Anthony Eden to the
Moscow Conference in October and November, where he served as Eden's top military adviser. At the conference,
Ismay handled all of the Soviet questions about the planning for Operation Overlord, and met Joseph Stalin
personally for the first time.
Only four days after returning from the Moscow Conference, Ismay left England again for the Cairo Conference and
Teheran Conference with Churchill
In the first several months of 1944, Ismay spent almost all of his time planning for the Normandy Landings. As part
of the planning, Ismay personally coordinated the plans for Operation Bodyguard and Operation Fortitude, which
were designed to deceive the Germans about the planned Normandy landings. In March, Duncan Sandys, Churchill's
nephew, told Ismay that Basil Liddell Hart, a noted strategist and historian, had somehow discovered the secret plans
for the Normandy landings. This development had the potential to compromise the entire operation, so Ismay
personally interviewed Liddell Hart, who claimed to have simply "worked it all out for himself" without any access to
secret information.
On 20 May 1944, less than a month before the Normandy Landings were scheduled to take place, Ismay was
promoted to the rank of full general. After the successful D-Day landings, King George VI decided to visit the troops
in Normandy, and selected Ismay to accompany him on the visit. In September, Ismay accompanied Churchill to
another conference, the Second Quebec Conference. Ismay also accompanied Churchill on his visits to Moscow and
Paris in late 1944.
In February 1945, Ismay attended the Yalta Conference. He found the conference different from the previous ones
where "the military element had been the prima donna, occupying the centre of the stage." Instead, at Yalta, political
issues took precedence, leaving Ismay and other military advisers "waiting for calls that never came"
After VE Day, Ismay accompanied Churchill to the Potsdam Conference. Like Yalta, the conference focussed
primarily on political issues, so there was little for Ismay to do.
Ismay and Churchill remained friends for the remainder of their lives, and Ismay even helped Churchill write his
memoirs, reviewing and commenting on each chapter of his manuscript.
10.1951-3.1952 Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations
24.3.1952-16.5.1957 1st Secretary General, NATO
While Secretary General, Ismay is also credited as having been the first person to say that the purpose of the alliance
was "to keep the Russians out, the Americans in, and the Germans down," a saying that has since become a common
way to quickly describe the alliance.

The political philosophies and positions of Scoop Jackson have been cited as an influence on a number of key figures
associated with neoconservatism, including Paul Wolfowitz [BB 12x 90-09] and Richard Perle [BB 17x 83-15], both
of whom previously served as aides to the Senator.
In 2005, twenty-two years after his death, US government officials, including three members of the Central
Intelligence Agency, seized and removed several of Senator Jackson's archived documents housed at the University of
[38][39]
Washington. Though a team of the university's staff in 1983 removed all information considered classified at
the time, the officials were verifying anything still considered classified, or reclassified since then, had been removed.
The documents are pending declassification at the University as of March 2005 .

1947-1955 Managing Partner, J.H. Whitney & Co. (bank)
1947-1965 Member, CFR
National Security Council executive director, Adm. Sidney Souers, appointed Jackson on February 13 to serve on the
NSC's "Intelligence Survey Group" with Allen Dulles and Mathias Correa (an aide to then Sec. of Defense James
Forrestal) for the purpose of analyzing departmental practices and inter-agency coordination. The Survey Group,
known as the Dulles, Jackson, Correa Committee or Dulles Group, submitted its final report on February 28, 1949. It
was a scathing criticism of CIA and its operations under Director Roscoe H. Hillenkoetter, which resulted in the
removal of several key persons at CIA and, eventually, the removal of Hillenkoetter.
10.1950-8.1951 Deputy Director, CIA
Smith and Jackson brought Allen W. Dulles to CIA under contract as Deputy Director/Plans (clandestine activities) in
early 1951. After completing the reorganization in accordance with adoption of the Dulles Report and NSC-50, and
Jackson's resignation in August 1951, Allen Dulles was promoted to DDCI to replace Jackson, later, replacing Smith
as DCI in 1953. Jackson remained a contract special adviser to the DCI through both the Smith and Dulles
directorships.
In 1953, Jackson was appointed Chairman of President Eisenhower's Committee on International Information
Activities, often known inside the Beltway as the Jackson Committee (1953-1954) which led to creation of the US
Information Agency (USIA). In December 1955 Jackson resigned from J. H. Whitney & Co. and was named 'Special
Assistant to the Secretary of State' John Foster Dulles to attend the 1955 Big Four talks in Geneva. In February 1956
Jackson was appointed special assistant to President Eisenhower on psychological warfare, succeeding Nelson
Rockefeller.

Klaus Jacobi SUI diplomat 90


1958-1961 GATT
1961- Bundesamt für Aussenwirtschaft, betreute die Handelsbeziehungen zu den USA
1966 und 1967 Leiter, Handelsdienst der Schweizer Botschaft in Washington
1972 rechte Hand von Paul Jolles bei den Verhandlungen mit der EWG
1973- Delegierter für Handelsverträge
In dieser Eigenschaft baute sich Jacobi ein ausgesprochen dichtes Netzwerk mit
zahlreichen schweizerischen Unternehmern auf, deren Interessen er an der
Aussenwirtschaftsfront auch noch lange nach seiner Pensionierung immer wieder
bestens zu vertreten wusste. Sein intuitives Vorgehen, die Probleme direkt
anzupacken, pragmatische Lösungen zu suchen, keine Zeit mit ihn nicht
ansprechenden langen theoretischen Konzepten und Strategien zu verlieren, kam
ihm sehr zustatten. So erstaunt es auch nicht, dass noch wenige Wochen vor seinem
Tod [2004] der unermüdliche, Lebensfreude ausstrahlende Jacobi nach Nordkorea
reiste, um diesen potenziellen neuen Markt zu analysieren.
84-89 Botschafter USA
89-92 Staatssekretär des EDA
Jacobi galt als Mann mit guten Beziehungen zur Industrie und zu den Banken.
In Washington, wo er während fünf Jahren die Schweizer Botschaft leitete, fand
sein dynamischer, unkomplizierter Stil bei den Amerikanern grossen Anklang. Dies
öffnete Klaus Jacobi die Türen bis hinauf ins Weisse Haus und zu den Spitzen des
Kongresses.
Während über 20 Jahren hat er die Geschicke des Bundesamts für Aussenwirtschaft
(Bawi) durch seine Persönlichkeit und sein Engagement zusammen mit seinen
Direktionskollegen geprägt. Zahlreiche für die Schweiz wichtige
Wirtschaftsverhandlungen wurden durch ihn geführt und erfolgreich abgeschlossen.
1996 Mitglied der Volcker-Kommission, die den Umgang der Schweizer Banken mit den
so genannten nachrichtenlosen Vermögen aus der NS-Zeit überprüfte
The Volcker Commission, also known as the Independent Committee of
Eminent Persons (ICEP), was established in 1996 to investigate the accounts
lying dormant since the Second World War in various banks in Switzerland. The
Commission was established by a memorandum of understanding on May 2, 1996,
between the World Jewish Restitution Organization, the World Jewish Congress
and the Swiss Bankers Association. The raw materials for the work was provided by
identifying all accounts that were open or opened in Swiss banks during the period
1933-1945. This yielded some 4.1 million accounts. There were no remaining
records for 2.8 million additional accounts.

An Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight (OFHEO) report from September 2004 found that, during
Johnson's tenure as CEO, Fannie Mae had improperly deferred $200 million in expenses. This enabled top executives,
including Johnson and his successor, Franklin Raines [BB 2002, TC 2001], to receive substantial bonuses in 1998. A
2006 OFHEO report found that Fannie Mae had substantially under-reported Johnson's compensation. Originally
reported as $6–7 million, Johnson actually received approximately $21 million.
In the 2011 book Reckless Endangerment: How Outsized Ambition, Greed and Corruption Led to Economic
Armageddon, authors Gretchen Morgenson and Joshua Rosner wrote that Johnson was one of the key figures
responsible for the late-2000s financial crisis.
Johnson chaired the vice presidential selection committee for the unsuccessful 2004 presidential campaign of John
Kerry [BB 12]. There was speculation that, had Kerry won, Johnson might have been named Kerry's chief of staff, or
Secretary of the Treasury.

Johnson has been a strong supporter of Barack Obama since at least 2004. Johnson gave $1,000 to Obama's Senate
campaign in 2004. In 2008 he donated the maximum allowed $4,600 to Obama's presidential campaign. In addition,
Johnson was a bundler for the Obama campaign, raising between $200,000 and $500,000.

On June 4, 2008 [= 1 day before the beginning of the Bilderberg Conference in Virginia, USA where Obama is
rumoured to have met Hilary Clinton], Obama announced the formation of a three-person committee to vet vice
presidential candidates, including Johnson. However, Johnson soon became a source of controversy when it was
reported that he had received $7 million in cut-rate mortgage loans directly from Angelo Mozilo, the CEO of
Countrywide Financial, a company implicated in the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis

lived in Israel, where he joined the Israeli army
He traveled to Iraq to cover the Iran–Iraq War (1984)
Kaplan then went to Afghanistan to write about the guerrilla war against the Soviet Union for Reader's Digest.
Demand for Kaplan's unorthodox analysis became more acute after the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York City
and Washington, D.C. In his book, Warrior Politics: Why Leadership Demands a Pagan Ethos, published shortly after
9/11, Kaplan offered the opinion that political and business leaders should discard Christian/Jewish morality in public
decision-making in favor of a pagan morality focused on the morality of the result rather than the morality of the
means.
Kaplan, along with Fareed Zakaria [BB 03, 05] of Newsweek, has been described by American journalist Glenn
Greenwald as one of many prominent pundits advocating support for the Iraq War
In November 2001, Kaplan participated in a secret meeting convened by the then Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul
D. Wolfowitz [BB 12x 90-09], at which he helped draft an internal government document advocating the invasion of
Iraq. He later concluded that the war had been a mistake and expressed deep remorse for supporting it.

George Kennan USA academia CFR 55 II 57 I


1947-2004 Member, CFR
George Frost Kennan (February 16, 1904 – March 17, 2005) was an American adviser, diplomat, political scientist,
and historian, best known as "the father of containment" and as a key figure in the emergence of the Cold War. He
later wrote standard histories of the relations between Soviet Union and the Western powers. He was also a core
member of the group of foreign policy elders known as "The Wise Men".
In the late 1940s, his writings inspired the Truman Doctrine and the U.S. foreign policy of "containing" the Soviet
Union, thrusting him into a lifelong role as a leading authority on the Cold War. His "Long Telegram" from Moscow
in 1946 and the subsequent 1947 article "The Sources of Soviet Conduct" argued that the Soviet regime was
inherently expansionist and that its influence had to be "contained" in areas of vital strategic importance to the United
States. These texts quickly emerged as foundation texts of the Cold War, expressing the Truman administration's new
anti-Soviet Union policy. Kennan also played a leading role in the development of definitive Cold War programs and
institutions, notably the Marshall Plan.
He continued to be a leading thinker in international affairs as a faculty member of the Institute for Advanced Study
from 1956 until his death at age 101 in March 2005.
He was a member of the Founding Council of the Rothermere American Institute at the University of Oxford.
In 1931 Kennan was stationed at the legation in Riga, Latvia, where, as third secretary, he worked on Soviet
economic affairs. From his post, Kennan "grew to mature interest in Russian affairs". When the U.S. opened
diplomatic ties with the Soviet Union in 1933 following the election of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Kennan
accompanied U.S. ambassador William C. Bullitt to Moscow. By the mid-1930s, Kennan was among the core of
professionally trained Russian experts on the staff of the U.S. embassy in Moscow, along with Charles E. Bohlen and
Loy W. Henderson. These officials had been influenced by the long-time head of the State Department's division of
East European Affairs, Robert F. Kelley. They believed that there was little basis for cooperation with the Soviet
Union, even against potential adversaries. Meanwhile, Kennan closely followed Stalin's Great Purge, which would
profoundly affect his outlook on the internal dynamics of the Soviet regime for the rest of his life.
In September 1942, Kennan was assigned as a counselor in Lisbon, where he begrudgingly took on an administrative
role handling intelligence and base operations. In January 1944, he was sent to London, where he served as counselor
of the U.S. delegation to the European Advisory Commission, which worked to prepare Allied policy in Europe.
There, Kennan grew even more disenchanted with the State Department, which he believed was ignoring his
qualifications as a trained specialist. However, within months of entering the post, he was appointed deputy chief of
the U.S. mission in Moscow, upon request by W.Averell Harriman, the ambassador to the Soviet Union.
Between April 1947 and December 1948, when George C. Marshall was secretary of state, Kennan was more
influential than he was at any other period in his career. Marshall valued his strategic vision and had him create and
head what is now called the Policy Planning Staff, the State Department's internal think tank. Kennan became the first
director of policy planning (1947-1949). Marshall relied heavily on him to prepare policy recommendations.
As an intellectual architect of the Marshall Plan, Kennan helped launch the pillar of economic and political
containment of the Soviet Union. Although Kennan regarded the Soviet Union as too weak to risk war, he nonetheless
considered it an enemy capable of expanding into Western Europe through subversion, given the popular support for
communist parties in Western Europe, which remained demoralized by the devastation of the Second World War.
In December 1951, President Truman nominated Kennan to be the next United States ambassador to the Soviet
Union. His appointment was strongly supported in the Senate.

In September 1952, Kennan made a misstatement that cost him his ambassadorship. In an answer to a question at a
press conference, Kennan compared his conditions at the ambassador's residence in Moscow to those he had
encountered while interned in Berlin during the first few months of the Second World War. While his statement was
not unfounded, the Soviets took it as an implied analogy with Nazi Germany. The Soviets then declared Kennan
persona non grata and refused to allow him to re-enter the Soviet Union. Kennan acknowledged in retrospect that it
was a "foolish thing for me to have said".

Kennan returned to Washington, where he became embroiled in disagreements with Dwight D. Eisenhower's hawkish
secretary of State, John Foster Dulles. Even so he was able to work constructively with the new administration.

John Keswick UK Lombard Street 56
The Keswick family (pronounced with a silent "w", "Kezzick") are a business dynasty of Scottish origin associated
with the Far East since 1855 and in particular the conglomerate Jardine Matheson.
As tai-pans of Jardine Matheson & Co, the Keswick family have at some time been closely associated with the
ownership or management of the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, the Indo-China Steam Navigation
Company Ltd., the Canton Insurance Office Ltd, (now the HSBC Insurance Co), The Hongkong and Kowloon Wharf
and Godown Company Limited, Star Ferry, Hong Kong Tramway, the Hong Kong Land Investment and Agency Co
Ltd, and the Hongkong and Whampoa Dock Co Ltd.

l壱Sir John "The Younger" Keswick, or Sir John Keswick, KCMG (1906–1982)
John followed his brother to the far east in 1929 and replaced him in Shanghai after the shooting incident. He fled the
city when the Japanese took Shanghai. He escaped with his wife Clare to Ceylon (Sri Lanka) and served during the
war with Admiral Lord Louis Mountbatten's staff.
John Keswick returned to Shanghai after the war to organize in the rebuilding of Jardine's office and to reestablish the
firm's trading links throughout China and Asia. In 1949, after the communist party's takeover of China, Jardine's head
office was moved to Hong Kong. Despite attempting to work with the communists, business conditions became
worse. Operations were closed in 1954 with the effective nationalisation of the company's interests and a $20m loss.
John Keswick became a member of the Hong Kong Executive Council in 1952. He retired as Tai-pan in 1953 and
joined Matheson & Co in 1956. He returned temporarily as non-executive Chairman of Jardine Matheson in Hong
Kong from 1970 to 1972. While in England, he and his brother financed the buy-out and then public flotation of
Jardine Matheson.

Kiep was considered to be one of the richest politicians in Germany
From 1950, Kiep was married to Charlotte Kiep, born 1920, daughter of IG Farben board member and convicted war
criminal Fritz ter Meer.
On 30 November 1974, an assassination attempt was made on Kiep, during which a man fired three shots at the door
of his sauna, though he remained uninjured. some party colleagues allegedly considered it possible that Kiep had
staged the attack himself.
1982-1993 Director, ICI (on invitation from Harvey-Jones, BB 78)
Kiep served as federal treasurer of the CDU from 1971 to 1992. During his tenure, the party was involved in several
financial scandals.
In 1995, the public prosecution department of the city of Augsburg obtained the calendars of Karlheinz Schreiber, a
German arms dealer. With the help of the documents, the persecutors were able to decipher a code of aliases and
money movements, leading to Kiep. On 4 November 1999, the prosecution office issued an arrest warrant against
Kiep, charging him with having accepted a payment of one million Deutsche Marks from Schreiber in 1991 without
subjecting the money to taxes. After turning himself in a day later, Kiep declared during his interrogation that he had
accepted the money, with Horst Weyrauch present, as a donation for the CDU. This started the CDU donations
scandal, in which a system of illegal accounts was uncovered. On 30 November, former chancellor Helmut Kohl took
full responsibility for the accounts and later admitted to having personally accepted a total sum of up to two million
Deutsche Marks from anonymous sponsors, which were not declared. As a consequence of the illegal proceedings, the
CDU was sentenced to a payment of 41 million Deutsche Marks by President of the Bundestag Wolfgang Thierse on
15 February 2000.
former governor of the Atlantic Institute and chair of Atlantik-Brucke (1984-2000), was part of a Thyssen arms

Kurt Georg Kiesinger GER politician 55 II 57 I 59 60


1933-1945 NSDAP-Mitglied
1940- Auswärtiges Amt
1954-1959 Vorsitzender, Auswärtiger Ausschuss
1958-1966 Ministerpräsident Baden-Württemberg
1966-1969 Bundeskanzler
Member, ACUSE
Kurt Georg Kiesinger (* 6. April 1904 in Ebingen, Württemberg; † 9. März 1988 in Tübingen) war ein deutscher
Jurist und privater juristischer Rechtslehrer (Repetitor). Er war NSDAP-Mitglied seit 1933. Ab 1940 arbeitete er als
Angestellter im Auswärtigen Amt zuletzt als Stellvertretender Leiter der Rundfunkabteilung. Nach 1945 wurde er
Politiker als Mitglied der CDU. Er war von 1958 bis 1966 Ministerpräsident von Baden-Württemberg, von 1966 bis
1969 dritter Bundeskanzler der Bundesrepublik Deutschland und von 1967 bis 1971 Bundesvorsitzender der CDU.

Nach der Machtergreifung wurde dieser Beschluss über die Unvereinbarkeit von NSDAP-Mitgliedschaft und
katholischer Verbindung auf einer Tagung des Kartellverbandes am 23. April 1933 wieder aufgehoben. Kiesinger – zu
dieser Zeit noch Referendar und Repetitor – war schon vor diesem Beschluss (nämlich Ende Februar 1933) in die
NSDAP eingetreten. Denn er gehörte auch zu den jungen Akademikern, die „angesteckt von der NS-Ideologie, von
einer starken Deutschtümelei und einem starken Nationalbewußtsein infiziert waren und sich begeistert den
Nationalsozialisten anschlossen.“ Kiesinger trat auch in die SA-Abteilung Nationalsozialistisches Kraftfahrkorps
(NSKK) ein.
Kiesinger erhielt die Mitgliedsnummer 2633930. Zu seinen Beweggründen für den Beitritt äußerte Kiesinger sich
später verschiedentlich. 1989 behauptete er in seinen Memoiren, er habe Exzesse verhüten wollen, und sei in die
NSDAP eingetreten, um ihre Ideologie zu verändern. Er behauptete dort auch, dass sein Motiv am Anfang gewesen
sei, der antisemitischen Rassenpropaganda entgegenzuwirken. Das erachtet sein Biograph Gassert 2006 für
unglaubwürdig.
Als er im Jahr 1940 seinen Gestellungsbefehl erhielt, entschloss er sich, um dem Dienst in der Wehrmacht zu
entgehen, eine Stellung im Reichsaußenministerium unter v. Ribbentrop anzunehmen. Diese Anstellung vermittelte
ihm sein Schüler Karl-Heinz Gerstner. Kiesinger stieg dort bis zum stellvertretenden Leiter der Rundfunkpolitischen
Abteilung auf, die für die Überwachung und Beeinflussung des ausländischen Rundfunks (siehe auch „Feindsender“)
zuständig war. Unter anderem war er für die Verbindung zum Reichspropagandaministerium von Joseph Goebbels
zuständig, mit dem seine Abteilung Kompetenzstreitigkeiten hatte. Kiesinger blieb bis 1945 Mitglied der NSDAP.
Entgegen Kiesingers Rechtfertigung 1947, er sei nie offiziell auf die Position eines stellvertretenden Abteilungsleiters
berufen worden, führte der Geschäftsverteilungsplan des Auswärtigen Amtes Kiesinger eindeutig als stellvertretenden
Leiter der Rundfunkpolitischen Abteilung.

Am 30. April 1945 wurde Kiesinger in Benediktbeuren von der amerikanischen Besatzungsmacht verhaftet, weil er in
der NSDAP gewesen war und wie viele verdächtig war, zu den nationalsozialistischen Funktionären gehört zu haben,
ohne dass eine konkrete Schuldvermutung vorlag. Kiesinger hatte den Amerikanern zuerst keine Auskünfte zur Person
gegeben, so konnte er fälschlicherweise verdächtigt werden, Zuträger des SD gewesen zu sein. Kiesinger saß 18
Monate lang in verschiedenen Internierungslagern in Haft, zum Schluss im Lager 74 in Ludwigsburg. Am 17.
September 1946 wurde Kiesinger aus der Haft entlassen und verzog nach Scheinfeld bei Würzburg, den Wohnsitz
seiner Schwiegereltern, wo sich auch Frau und Kinder befanden. Danach durchlief Kiesinger das deutsche
Entnazifizierungsverfahren. Zunächst wurde er als ehemaliges NSDAP-Mitglied als Mitläufer eingestuft. Im Jahr
1948 entlastete ihn auf sein Betreiben ein Spruchkammergericht vollständig. Anschließend begann er eine Tätigkeit
als Rechtsanwalt in Tübingen und Würzburg.

Von 1949 bis zum 19. Februar 1959 und noch einmal von 1969 bis 1980 war Kiesinger Mitglied des Deutschen
Bundestags.

Kiesinger galt als exzellenter Redner. In den 1950er-Jahren unterstützte Kiesinger die Außenpolitik Adenauers. Seine
Debatten mit dem ebenso redegewandten Fritz Erler von der SPD schrieben Parlamentsgeschichte. Adenauer machte
Kiesinger dennoch nicht zum Minister. Dies war einer der Gründe dafür, dass Kiesinger 1958 als Ministerpräsident
nach Stuttgart ging.

Von 1954 bis 1957 war Kiesinger Vorsitzender der Deutschen Parlamentarischen Gesellschaft e.V. Vom 1. Juli 1956
bis zum 19. März 1958 gehörte er auch dem Europaparlament an. Außerdem war er von 1955 bis 1959 Vizepräsident
der parlamentarischen Versammlung des Europarates, 1957/58 dort gleichzeitig Fraktionsvorsitzender der EVP-
Fraktion, und in der parlamentarischen Versammlung der WEU 1956 bis 1958 Vorsitzender der Fraktion der
Christlichen Demokraten und britischen Konservativen.

l壱Ministerpräsident 1958 bis 1966

Kiesinger im April 1962 während einer Sitzung des Bundesrates


Vom 17. Dezember 1958 bis zum 30. November 1966 war er Ministerpräsident von Baden-Württemberg als
Nachfolger von Gebhard Müller, der als Präsident an das Bundesverfassungsgericht nach Karlsruhe ging.

Am 27. Oktober 1966 zog die FDP nach einer Auseinandersetzung über den Bundeshaushalt ihre vier Minister aus der
Regierung von Ludwig Erhard zurück. Obwohl Erhard noch immer Bundeskanzler und auch CDU-Vorsitzender war,
beschloss die CDU/CSU-Bundestagsfraktion, einen neuen Kanzlerkandidaten zu wählen, der die Regierungskrise
überwinden sollte.

Wenige Tage vor dessen Rücktritt mit Kanzler Erhard (links), 25. November 1966
Am 10. November setzte sich Kiesinger im dritten Wahlgang gegen den damaligen Bundesaußenminister Gerhard
Schröder (CDU) und den CDU/CSU-Fraktionsvorsitzenden Rainer Barzel durch. Bundestagspräsident Eugen
Gerstenmaier hatte zugunsten Kiesingers verzichtet.
Kiesinger verhandelte zwecks Regierungsbildung zunächst mit dem bisherigen Koalitionspartner FDP; dies wurde am
25. November für gescheitert erklärt. Stattdessen konnte Kiesinger am 26. November die Einigung zu einer großen
Koalition mit der bisherigen Oppositionspartei SPD vermelden. Diese überraschende Entscheidung besiegelten
Kiesinger und der SPD-Vorsitzende Brandt mit einem etwas zaghaften Händedruck vor den berichtenden Journalisten.

Lord Kilmuir UK politician 57 I 57 II 58

David Patrick Maxwell Fyfe, 1st Earl of Kilmuir, GCVO, PC, QC (29 May 1900 – 27 January 1967), known as Sir
David Maxwell Fyfe from 1942 to 1954 and as the Viscount Kilmuir from 1954 to 1962, was a British Conservative
politician, lawyer and judge who combined an industrious and precocious legal career with political ambitions that
took him to the offices of Solicitor General, Attorney General, Home Secretary and Lord High Chancellor of Great
Britain
One of the prosecutors at the Nuremberg Trials, he was instrumental in drafting the European Convention on Human
Rights.
In March 1942, Sir Winston Churchill, on the advice of Brendan Bracken, appointed Maxwell Fyfe Solicitor-General.
At the same time he was knighted and sworn to the Privy Council. He applied himself to his work in the wartime
coalition government with enormous industry and began some of the thinking and planning about how the leaders of
the Nazi regime in Germany might be brought to account after the war. As part of his duties, on 8 April 1945, he
attended an Anglo-American discussion over the war crimes trial, at which, says the historian Richard Overy, "he
presented the standard British argument for summary execution." Whether Maxwell Fyfe believed such executions
were the best method of dealing with the Nazis may be doubted, in view of his later work at the Nuremberg Trials; at
the time, however, as a member of the government he had little choice but to follow the lead of the Prime Minister,
Churchill, who repeatedly urged that summary justice be visited upon the Nazi leaders. When the war ended and the
coalition was dissolved in May 1945, Maxwell Fyfe was briefly Attorney-General in Churchill's caretaker
government.
After Nuremberg, Maxwell Fyfe returned to parliament to shadow the Minister of Labour while simultaneously
pursuing a full, busy and successful career at the Bar. Reputedly, he would arrive at the House of Commons at around
5.00 pm, often stay throughout debates that lasted all night then, after a quick shave and breakfast, leave for court.
Maxwell Fyfe played a leading role in drafting the Party's Industrial Charter of 1947 and chaired the committee into
Conservative Party organisation that resulted in the Maxwell Fyfe Report (1948–49). The report shifted the balance
of electoral funding from the candidate to the Party, with the intention of broadening the diversity of MPs. In practice,
it may have had the effect of lending more power to constituency parties and making candidates more uniform.
Maxwell Fyfe was a champion of European integration and a member of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council
of Europe from August 1949 to May 1952, becoming the Chair of the Assembly's Committee on Legal and
Administrative Questions, and rapporteur on the committee drafting the European Convention on Human Rights.

In 1954 he was raised to the peerage as Viscount Kilmuir, of Creich in the County of Sutherland, and moved to the
House of Lords and the "woolsack". Lord Kilmuir was a political Lord Chancellor, not restricting himself to his
judicial role. He worked on many government issues including the constitution of Malta, which he wanted to become
part of the UK, and the creation of the Restrictive Practices Court.

In 1965 Peccei had given a speech in America expressing fears about the effects of galloping population growth on
future food, materials and energy supplies, suggesting that we faced a future of depletion, shortages and
environmental degradation.
King, a British chemist working for the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) read the
speech and found that it closely mirrored his own concerns about the long-term consequences of unrestricted growth.
He immediately wrote to Peccei suggesting a meeting and in April 1966 the two men invited about 40 scientists,
academics, industrialists and financiers to an informal meeting in Rome. In 1970 the group was incorporated as a
non-profit organisation based in Switzerland.
He was chief scientist at the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research from 1950 to 1956, when he moved to
Paris as director of the European Productivity Agency.
In 1960 he became director-general of education and science at the OECD, a position he held until his official
retirement in 1974.
King devoted much time and energy to the Club of Rome and after Peccei's death in 1984 took over as president,
finally retiring in 1990.

retained his ties, as a reserve officer, to military intelligence. By 1950, he was ... working part-time for the

consultant to several government agencies, including the Operations Research Office, the
Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, and the Department of State, and the Rand Corporation, a think-tank.
Keen to have a greater influence on U.S. foreign policy, Kissinger became a supporter of, and advisor to, Nelson
Rockefeller, Governor of New York, who sought the Republican nomination for president in 1960, 1964 and 1968.
1968- National Security Advisor.
This paved the way for the groundbreaking 1972 summit between Nixon, Zhou, and Communist Party of China
Chairman Mao Zedong, as well as the formalization of relations between the two countries, ending 23 years of
diplomatic isolation and mutual hostility. The result was the formation of a tacit strategic anti-Soviet alliance between
China and the United States.
Documents show that Kissinger delayed telling President Richard Nixon about the start of the Yom Kippur War in
1973 to keep him from interfering. On October 6, 1973, the Israelis informed Kissinger about the attack at 6 am;
Kissinger waited nearly 3 and a half hours before he informed Nixon.
According to Kissinger, in an interview in November 2013, he was notified at 6:30 a.m. (12:30 p.m. Israel time) that
war was imminent, and his urgent calls to the Soviets and Egyptians were ineffective. He says Golda Meir's decision
not to preempt was wise and reasonable, balancing the risk of Israel looking like the aggressor and Israel's actual
ability to strike within such a brief span of time.
The war began on October 6, 1973, when Egypt and Syria attacked Israel. Kissinger published lengthy telephone
transcripts from this period in the 2002 book Crisis. On October 12, under Nixon's direction, and against Kissinger's
initial advice, while Kissinger was on his way to Moscow to discuss conditions for a cease-fire, Nixon sent a message
to Brezhnev giving Kissinger full negotiating authority.
On October 31, 1973, Egyptian Foreign Minister Ismail Fahmi meets with Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger, about
a week after the end of fighting in the Yom Kippur War.
As National Security Advisor, in 1974 Kissinger directed the much-debated National Security Study Memorandum
200.
Kissinger left office when a Democrat, former Governor of Georgia Jimmy Carter, defeated Republican Gerald Ford
in the 1976 presidential elections. Kissinger continued to participate in policy groups, such as the Trilateral
Commission, and to maintain political consulting, speaking, and writing engagements.

1977- International Advisory Council, Chase Manhattan
„die Chase Manhattan Bank entschlossen. Extra für Henry Kissinger hat das New Yorker Geldinstitut in seinem
„internationalen Beirat“ den neuen Stuhl eines stellvertretenden Vorsitzenden aufgestellt. Anfang nächsten Jahres,
wenn der Boß der Royal Durch Petroleum Company, John H. Loudon, in den Ruhestand tritt, soll Kissinger dann
Vorsitzender dieses Gremiums werden. (...) Wird Kissinger damit der neue „Außenminister“ der Chase? (...) Obwohl
nur an dritter Stelle unter den Großbanken dieser Welt, ist es der Chase dank der magischen Wirkung des Namens
„Rockefeller“ gelungen, ihrem 22köpfigen internationalen Beirat das Flair des Superexklusiven zu geben. Zu den
illustren Figuren dieses Kreises mächtiger Männer gehören neben Super-Henry auch Fiat-Boß Agnelli, Schiffsmagnat
Y. K. Pao, der indische Industriekönig Tata und der frühere US-Finanzminister Dillon. Für Bosch-Chef Merkle, der
hier für Deutschland spricht, ist das sicher genau das richtige Publikum. (...) Die Rockefeller sind zwar der größte
Einzelaktionär der Chase, aber ihr Aktienpaket umfaßt dennoch nicht mehr als ein Prozent aller Anteile. Auf dieser
Grundlage läßt sich die Chefposition schwer vererben – zumal kein geeigneter Erbe da ist. Aus der jüngsten
Generation des Rockefeller-Clans fühlt sich niemand zum Banker berufen. Bei der Chase erfolgt aber mit Errreichen
des 65. Lebensjahres normalerweise die Zwangspensionierung.“ Die Zeit vom 15. April 1977 (und natürlich kein

Kissinger stepped down as chairman on December 13, 2002 rather than reveal his
business client list, when queried about potential conflicts of interest

On 5 March 2014, before the 16 March referendum in Crimea, the Washington Post published a op-ed piece by
Kissinger. In it, he attempted to balance the Ukrainian, Russian and Western desires for a functional state. He made
four propositions:
1. Ukraine should have the right to choose freely its economic and political associations, including with Europe.
2. Ukraine should not join NATO, a repetition of the position he took seven years before.
3. Ukraine should be free to create any government compatible with the expressed will of its people. Wise Ukrainian
leaders would then opt for a policy of reconciliation between the various parts of their country. He imagined an
international position for Ukraine like that of Finland.
4. Ukraine should maintain sovereignty over Crimea.
Kissinger also wrote: "The west speaks Ukrainian; the east speaks mostly Russian. Any attempt by one wing of
Ukraine to dominate the other — as has been the pattern — would lead eventually to civil war or break up."

British Invisibles itself originated in the Committee on Invisible Exports, set up in April 1968 by the Bank of
England and then became the British Invisible Exports Council. It was largely the idea of Cyril Kleinwort who
realised that the government was paying much attention to the UK's balance of trade in goods, but little to the UK's
invisible earnings from services.

In 1976 „Brzezinski, Rockefeller, Owen and Andrew Knight ... met informally to discuss whether it would be possible
to replace Bilderberg by adding an annual event equivalent to the TriCom. The idea was Brzezinski's. The small
circle of men, and the fact that the meeting is not referenced in any internal TriCom sources, testifies to the delicacy
of the subject. (...) The idea was temporarily abandoned, but discussed again, more openly, by the TriCom leadership
in 1978. (...) the considerations show that the ... TriCom had in a few years ... managed to establish itself as the
central informal elite arena on a transnational level.“ Knudsen 2016: 54

Mitgründer von Médecins sans Frontières (MSF, Ärzte ohne Grenzen), Médecins du Monde
1971 gründete er zusammen mit anderen engagierten Medizinern die nichtstaatliche Organisation Médecins sans
Frontières, die aus der französischen Secours médical français hervorging. Darüber hinaus geriet Kouchner mit dem
Direktor von MSF Claude Malhuret in Meinungsverschiedenheiten und trat aus MSF aus, um 1980 die zweite
Hilfsorganisation Médecins du Monde (MDM) zu gründen. Kouchners „french doctors“ wurden bald in den Konflikt-
und Krisengebieten rund um den Erdball zu einem Begriff, ebenso wie sein Credo: Das Recht, ja, die Pflicht, sich
einzumischen, um das Elend der Menschen in aller Welt zu bekämpfen. „Das Recht auf humanitäre Intervention
(droit d'ingérence humanitaire) geht vor. Im Zweifelsfall sogar vor staatliche Souveränität.“
Er trat für ein Langzeitkonzept humanitärer Einmischung ein.
1988 bis 1992 Staatssekretär für humanitäre Angelegenheiten
1992 bis 1993 Minister für Gesundheit
1994 bis 1997 Abgeordneter im Europäischen Parlament
1997 bis 1999 Minister für Gesundheit und humanitäre Angelegenheiten
Von 1999 bis 2001 entsandte ihn der Generalsekretär der Vereinten Nationen Kofi Annan als Sondergesandten und
Leiter der UNMIK ins Kosovo. Kouchner war persönlich befreundet mit dem brasilianischen Diplomaten und UN-
Hochkommissar für Menschenrechte Sérgio Vieira de Mello.

In early 2003, he pronounced himself in favour of removing Saddam Hussein as President of Iraq, arguing that
interference against dictatorship should be a global priority, and continued to say that now, the focus should be on the
actual people themselves, and that they are the only ones who could answer yes or no to war.
In a 4 February 2003 editorial with Antoine Veil in Le Monde, entitled "Neither War Nor Saddam", Kouchner said
that he was opposed to the impending War in Iraq, and, as the title suggests, to the remaining in power of Saddam
Hussein, the removal of whom should be accomplished via a concerted UN, preferably diplomatic, solution.
Kouchner is a well-known pro-European.

In 2005, Kouchner was a candidate for the position of United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR),
but lost the appointment in favor of former Portuguese Prime Minister, António Guterres [BB 90, 05], who was
nominated by then-UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan.

5.2007-11.2010 Foreign Minister


Unmittelbar nachdem Bernard Kouchner von Präsident Nicolas Sarkozy im Mai 2007 zum Außenminister seiner
konservativen Regierung ernannt worden war, erklärte die Parti Socialiste Kouchners Ausschluss:„Wer in diese
Regierung eintritt“, verkündete Parteichef François Hollande, „ist ein rechter Minister und kann nicht gleichzeitig
den Sozialisten angehören. Kouchner ist nicht mehr Mitglied der Sozialistischen Partei.“

In 2010, the Jerusalem Post considered Bernard Kouchner the 15th most influential jew in the world

Charles Krauthammer USA journalist CFR 02


1990- ongoing Member, CFR
In 2006, the Financial Times named Krauthammer the most influential commentator in America, saying
"Krauthammer has influenced US foreign policy for more than two decades". He coined and developed 'The Reagan
Doctrine' in 1985 and he defined the US role as sole superpower in his essay 'The Unipolar Moment', published
shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. Krauthammer's 2004 speech "Democratic Realism", which was
delivered to the American Enterprise Institute when Krauthammer won the Irving Kristol Award, set out a framework
for tackling the post-9/11 world, focusing on the promotion of democracy in the Middle East".
Krauthammer strongly opposed the Oslo accords
In a July 2006 essay in Time, Krauthammer asserted that the Israeli–Palestinian conflict was fundamentally defined
by the Palestinians' unwillingness to accept compromise.
He supported the Second Iraq War on the "realist" grounds of the strategic threat the Saddam regime posed to the
region as UN sanctions were eroding and of his alleged weapons of mass destruction and on the "idealist" grounds
that a self-sustaining democracy in Iraq would be a first step towards changing the poisonous political culture of
tyranny, intolerance and religious fanaticism in the Arab world that had incubated the anti-American extremism from
which 9/11 emerged.
In October 2002, he presented what he believed were the primary arguments for and against the war, writing, "Hawks
favor war on the grounds that Saddam Hussein is reckless, tyrannical and instinctively aggressive, and that if he
comes into possession of nuclear weapons in addition to the weapons of mass destruction he already has, he is likely
to use them or share them with terrorists. The threat of mass death on a scale never before seen residing in the hands
of an unstable madman is intolerable – and must be preempted. Doves oppose war on the grounds that the risks
exceed the gains. War with Iraq could be very costly, possibly degenerating into urban warfare."
He continued: "I happen to believe that the preemption school is correct, that the risks of allowing Saddam Hussein to
acquire his weapons will only grow with time. Nonetheless, I can both understand and respect those few Democrats
who make the principled argument against war with Iraq on the grounds of deterrence, believing that safety lies in
reliance on a proven (if perilous) balance of terror rather than the risky innovation of forcible disarmament by
preemption."
On the eve of the invasion, Krauthammer wrote, "Reformation and reconstruction of an alien culture are a daunting
task. Risky and, yes, arrogant." In February 2003, Krauthammer cautioned that "it may yet fail. But we cannot afford
not to try. There is not a single, remotely plausible, alternative strategy for attacking the monster behind 9/11. It's not
Osama bin Laden; it is the cauldron of political oppression, religious intolerance, and social ruin in the Arab-Islamic
world—oppression transmuted and deflected by regimes with no legitimacy into virulent, murderous anti-
Americanism." Krauthammer in 2003 wrote that the reconstruction of Iraq would provide many benefits for the Iraqi
people, once the political and economic infrastructure destroyed by Saddam was restored: "With its oil, its urbanized
middle class, its educated population, its essential modernity, Iraq has a future. In two decades Saddam Hussein
reduced its GDP by 75 percent. Once its political and industrial infrastructures are reestablished, Iraq's potential for
rebound, indeed for explosive growth, is unlimited."
On April 22, 2003, Krauthammer predicted that he would have a "credibility problem" if weapons of mass destruction
were not found in Iraq within the next five months.

declare her directorship of the Bahamas company. Further, EU commissioners are not allowed to hold outside

On 3 August 2011, a French court ordered an investigation into Lagarde's role in a €403 million arbitration deal in
favour of businessman Bernard Tapie. On 20 March 2013, Lagarde's apartment in Paris was raided by French police
as part of the investigation. On 24 May 2013, after two days of questioning at the Court of Justice of the Republic
(CJR), Lagarde was assigned the status of "assisted witness", meaning that she was not herself under investigation in
the affair. According to a press report from June 2013, Lagarde has been described by Stéphane Richard, the CEO of
France Telecom (a former aide to Lagarde when she was Finance Minister), who has himself been put under formal
investigation in the case, as having been fully briefed before approving the arbitration process which benefitted
Bernard Tapie. Subsequently, in August 2014 the CJR announced that it had formally approved a negligence
investigation into Lagarde's role in the arbitration of the Tapie case. On 17 December 2015, the CJR ordered Lagarde
to stand trial before it for alleged negligence in handling the Tapie arbitration approval. In December 2016, the court
found Lagarde guilty of negligence, but declined to impose a penalty.

Michael Ledeen USA academia/secret services 05


His doctoral dissertation eventually became Universal Fascism: The Theory and Practice of the Fascist International,
1928–1936, first published in 1972.
Ledeen has been a long time and active supporter of political dissidents, particularly Iranians, and co-founded The
Coalition for Democracy in Iran.
In the 1980 lead up to the US presidential election, Ledeen, along with Arnaud de Borchgrave, wrote a series of
articles published in The New Republic and elsewhere about Jimmy Carter's brother, Billy Carter's contacts with the
Muammar al-Gaddafi regime in Libya. Ledeen testified before a Senate subcommittee that he believed that Billy
Carter had met with and been paid off by Yasser Arafat of the Palestinian Liberation Organization.
Five years later, in 1985, a Wall Street Journal investigation suggested that the series of Billygate articles written by
Ledeen were part of a larger disinformation campaign intended to influence the outcome of that year's presidential
election. According to the reporting, Francesco Pazienza, an officer of the Italian intelligence agency SISMI, alleged
that Ledeen was paid $120,000 for his work on Billygate and other projects.
Ledeen worked for the Italian military intelligence agency SISMI in 1980 providing "risk assessment", and consulting
on extradition matters between Italy and the US.
In the early 1980s, Ledeen appeared before the newly established Senate Subcommittee on Security and Terrorism,
alongside former CIA director William Colby, author Claire Sterling and former Newsweek editor Arnaud de
Borchgrave. Both Ledeen and de Borchgrave worked for the Center for Strategic and International Studies at

Georgetown University at the time. All four testified that they believed the Soviet Union had provided for material
support, training and inspiration for various terrorist groupings.
Ledeen was involved in the Iran–Contra affair as a consultant of National Security Advisor Robert C. McFarlane.
Ledeen vouched for Iranian intermediary Manucher Ghorbanifar. In addition, he met with Israeli Prime Minister
Shimon Peres, officials of the Israeli Foreign Ministry and the Central Intelligence Agency to arrange meetings with
high-ranking Iranian officials, whereby U.S supported Iranians would be given weapons by Israel, and would proceed

to negotiate with Hizbollah for the release of hostages in Lebanon. Ledeen's own version of the events is published in
his book, Perilous Statecraft.
Ledeen specifically called for the deposition of Saddam Hussein's regime by force in 2002.
Ledeen is a long-time foe of Iran. He believed that invading the country should have been the first priority in the "war
on terror" in 2003 rather than Iraq. He believes that “everything traces back to Tehran”.

communist, lived in soviet union and GDR, left in 1949
From 1935 to 1937 Leonhard attended Karl Liebknecht School in Moscow, a school for the children of German and
Austrian antifascists. A special children's home (Children's Home No. 6) had been established in Moscow for Austrian
and German orphans of fascism; Leonhard lived there from September 1936 to August 1939, when it was closed a
week after the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, following months of pressure after a number of residents were arrested in
the so-called Hitler Youth Conspiracy.
1936 was the beginning of "The Great Purge", a period of arbitrary arrests and trials in the Soviet Union. Leonhard's
mother was arrested by the secret police, NKVD, in October 1936, and had to do forced labour for the next 12 years.
taught Russian history and the history of international Communism at Yale University from 1966 to 1987. One of his

independent Republic of Georgia draft a constitution.[14] From 1997 to 2000, he was at Harvard Law School, holding
for a year the chair of Berkman Professor of Law, affiliated with the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society.
[13] He subsequently joined Stanford Law School, where he established the school's Center for Internet and Society
One Way Forward: The Outsider's Guide to Fixing the Republic is the seventh book by Lawrence Lessig, a Harvard
law professor and activist concerned about the excessive influence of corporate money in politics. One Way Forward
describes his discussions with activists in the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street. He says the two groups have a lot in
common, including a concern for the future of the US and a willingness to devote substantial amounts of time and
possibly money to do what they think is likely to fix the worst of the problems.
They also share a counterproductive tendency to label as "treasonous" anyone who suggests talking with the other
side. Lessig says that together these different groups can fix the biggest problem facing the US today, namely the
excessive influence of corporate money in politics, also called crony capitalism or corporate welfare. However, all
sides must first find ways to listen to the others to find their common ground.
In October 2014, Killswitch, a film featuring Lawrence Lessig, as well as Aaron Swartz, Tim Wu, and Edward
Snowden received its World Premiere at the Woodstock Film Festival, where it won the award for Best Editing. In the
film, Lessig frames the story of two young hacktivists, Swartz and Snowden, who symbolize the disruptive and
dynamic nature of the Internet.
In February 2015, Killswitch was invited to screen at the Capitol Visitor's Center in Washington DC by Congressman
Alan Grayson. The event was held on the eve of the Federal Communications Commission's historic decision on Net
Neutrality.
He proposed the concept of "Free Culture"

Prinz Adam Liechtenstein LIE royalty / Habsburgs 85 86 87 billionnaire


1984 wurde er als Stellvertreter seines Vaters eingesetzt. Nach dessen Tod übernahm Hans-Adam II. 1989 die
Regierung. Unter seiner Führung trat Liechtenstein den Vereinten Nationen und dem EWR bei.
2003 wurde ein Vorschlag des Fürsten zur neuen liechtensteinischen Verfassung von vielen Kritikern als ein
Rückschritt in den Absolutismus bezeichnet. Dem Vorschlag stimmte jedoch die Mehrheit der Bevölkerung (64,3 %)
in einer Volksabstimmung zu.
Am 15. August 2004 setzte er seinen Sohn Alois als seinen Stellvertreter ein und übergab ihm die Staatsgeschäfte.
Seit der entschädigungslosen Enteignung des Hauses Liechtenstein in der Tschechoslowakei im Jahr 1945 durch die
Dekrete von Edvard Beneš blieben die mährischen Besitzungen im Eigentum des zuerst tschechoslowakischen, später
des tschechischen Staates. Alle politischen und gerichtlichen Bemühungen des Fürsten Hans Adam II. – nach dem
Ende der kommunistischen Diktatur 1990 – um Rückgabe des enteigneten Besitzes (neben den Schlössern Feldsberg,
Eisgrub und Groß Ullersdorf noch weitere 14 Schlösser, 1.600 Quadratkilometer Land – mithin 2 % der gesamten
Fläche Tschechiens und das Zehnfache der Staatsfläche Liechtensteins – sowie diverse Industriebetriebe) scheiterten
am Widerstand der tschechischen Regierung, die dem Fürstentum Liechtenstein, um Beneš' Rechtsposition
beibehalten zu können, sogar die diplomatische Anerkennung als Staat versagte.
Gleichwohl zeichnet sich Fürst Hans-Adam II. durch grosse Geschäftstüchtigkeit aus und stellte die solide
wirtschaftliche Grundlage seines Hauses wieder her, die durch die Enteignungen in der Tschechoslowakei von 1945
derart stark gelitten hatte, dass unter der Regentschaft seines Vaters auch die berühmte Kunstsammlung zeitweise als
«Notgroschen» herhalten musste und die Familie, wie Hans-Adam es formulierte, «dem Bankrott entgegensah». Dies
gelang ihm vor allem durch die Erweiterung der kleinen Bank in Liechtenstein zur Privatbank LGT Group, die er
bereits vor seiner Thronbesteigung international ausrichtete und zu einem bedeutenden Bankhaus machte.
Mit einem Vermögen von 5 Milliarden Dollar ist Hans-Adam II. der sechstreichste Monarch weltweit.
Finn Lied NOR politician/industry 73
was a Norwegian military researcher and politician for the Labour Party. He was particularly known for work on the
establishment of the Norwegian state oil company Statoil. His effort to ensure that a large part of the revenues from
the oil industry that explored the petroleum deposits under the Norwegian continental shelf was taxed by the
Norwegian state was of great importance.
Lied spent almost his entire professional career at the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI), where he
worked from 1946 to 1983, interrupted only by studying and ministerial posts. Lied was director of FFI from 1957
until he retired in 1983, and contributed greatly to shaping the institute. Lied was concerned with the technological
importance of research for social development.
1971-1972 Cabinet Minister in the Ministry of Industry
1974-1984 Chairman, Statoil
During the Yom Kippur War, Lied led the action committee Let Israel Live. Later, he was involved in the creation of
the friendship association Friends of Israel in the Norwegian Labour Movement ( Norwegian: Venner av Israel i
Norsk Arbeiderbevegelse (VINA). From 1978 to 1993 he was a member of the Norwegian Committee for the support
of the Jerusalem Shaare Zedek Medical Center.

Maurice Lippens joined the AG Group (nl) in 1981, in 1983 becoming Managing Director and then Chairman /
Managing Director in 1988. He has been the Chairman of Fortis since 1990, but was relieved of his position after a
government bailout of the bank in September 2008. The bailout came after Fortis had been over ambitious and made
Fortis take over ABN-AMRO, an acquisition Fortis could probably not afford and therefore Fortis was close to
bankruptcy when the government took over.
Mr Lippens has been involved in numerous law suits and has been blamed by many for the downfall of Fortis due to
his over ambitious merger plan with ABN Amro during the economic crisis.

Aussenminister 1952-1971, Generalsekretär NATO 71-84
Joseph Marie Antoine Hubert Luns (28 August 1911 – 17 July 2002) was a Dutch politician and diplomat of the
defunct Catholic People's Party (KVP), now merged into the Christian Democratic Appeal (CDA). He was the
longest-serving Dutch Minister of Foreign Affairs from September 2, 1952 until July 6, 1971 and later became the
5th(and also longest-serving) Secretary General of NATO for 13 years from October 1, 1971 until June 25, 1984.

Luns demonstrated a preference for conservative and authoritarian political parties and an interest in international
politics. As a young student he positioned himself on the political right, favoring a strong authority for the state and
being of the opinion that socialism, because of its idealistic ideology, had fostered the rise of fascism and nazism.
Luns himself had been a silent member of the National Socialist Movement in the Netherlands (NSB) but left in 1936
before this party chose a strongly anti-Semitic course.

He joined the Dutch Diplomatic Service in 1938 and, after a two-year assignment at the Private Office of the Foreign
Minister, was appointed as attaché in Bern (Switzerland) in 1940. In late 1941, he moved to Lisbon, Portugal. In both
countries, he was involved in assistance to Dutch refugees, political espionage and counterintelligence. In 1943, he
was transferred to the Dutch embassy in London. Ambassador E. Michiels van Verduynen discovered Luns's great
affinity for the political element in international affairs and entrusted him with important files on Germany, which
Luns handled with great skill.

In 1949, Luns was appointed as deputy Dutch permanent representative to the United Nations. He worked closely
with his new chief, Von Balluseck, a political appointee without diplomatic experience. After the Netherlands became
a member of the Security Council, he temporarily chaired the Disarmament Commission.

His co-minister was Johan Willem Beyen, an international banker not affiliated to any political party but the protégé
of Queen Juliana. The two ministers had a completely different style of operating and clashed repeatedly on policy
even before the end of 1952. However, they accommodated and avoided future conflicts by a very strict division of
labour. Luns was responsible for bilateral relations,Benelux and international organisations. After the 1956 elections,
Beyen left office and Luns stayed as Foreign Minister until 1971 in both center-left and center-right governments.
Bilateral relations with Indonesia and the Federal Republic of Germany, security policy and European integration
were the most important issues during his tenure.
Atlantic cooperation was a fundamental aspect of Luns's foreign policy, and Dutch foreign policy in general. Luns
believed that Western Europe could not survive the Cold War without American nuclear security and so he promoted
strong and intensified political and military cooperation in NATO.

European integration was permanently on Luns's political agenda. Beyen had introduced the concept of the European
Economic Community. In March 1957, Luns signed the Treaties of Rome establishing the EEC and Euratom.

Luns played a vital role in the negotiations unwinding French participation and continuing its political membership of
the Alliance. By then, Luns had internationally established his reputation as an able and reliable negotiator and was
seen as an important asset in London and Washington.

Throughout his years as Dutch foreign minister, Luns had gained an international status uncommon for a foreign
minister of a small country.

In 1971, Luns was appointed as NATO Secretary-General. At the time of his appointment, public protests against
American policies in Vietnam were vehement throughout Western Europe and among European politicians the
credibility of the American nuclear protection was in doubt. Though there were initial doubts about his skills for the
job he soon proved that he was capable of managing the alliance in crisis. He regarded himself as the spokesman of
the alliance and he aimed at balancing the security and political interests of the alliance as a whole.

Robert Mabro UK academia (oil) 97
born in Alexandria, Greek orthodox. In 1960 he joined a Jesuit seminary near Paris
He founded the Oxford Energy Policy Club in 1976; the club continues to meet biannually and gives oil industry
executives and senior government officials from around the world the opportunity to hold informal, off-the-record
talks.
In 1982, He founded the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies.
In the wake of the 1997 Asian financial crisis, oil prices plunged sharply to below $10 a barrel, which had significant
negative effects on the economies of crude oil producers around the world. However, a history of distrust and a desire
to protect their own market share was preventing any cooperation to counter the price fall amongst the nations
affected. In early 1998, following a meeting in Oxford with Adrian Lajous, the head of Mexico's state-owned oil
company Pemex, Mabro held a series of meetings and phone calls in which he acted as an intermediary between
officials from Saudi Arabia and Venezuela, and their Mexican rivals. This initiative led to joint production cuts in late
1998 and early 1999, the effect of which was that by mid-2000 the price of crude oil had recovered to more than $30
a barrel. Lajous later recalled, "Robert Mabro played a key, if unaccredited, role in the secret negotiations that
brought together these three countries."

1967-1994 Member, CFR
He went on to become a director of Lazard and chairman of the International Chamber of Commerce
During his chairmanship at American Metal Climax, MacGregor maintained his contacts and visibility with trans-
Atlantic "straddle projects". For example, in 1971–72, he helped spearhead a high-level US-EC Businessmen's
Conference at Versailles assembling top industrialists. MacGregor served on the Steering Committee, and delivered a
speech which reassured Europeans on American commitment for trade expansion during heightened concerns
following the Nixon Administration's decoupling of the dollar's linkage with gold and the threat of Labor-backed
legislation (Burke-Hartke Bill) with protectionist quotas and investment curbs.
MacGregor retired from the NCB in 1986, rejoining Lazard's as a non-executive director.
[8]
On his death, many involved in the 1984-5 strike expressed great bitterness against him. NUM vice-president at
the time, Mick McGahey said, "It's no loss to people of my ilk. MacGregor was a vicious, anti-trades unionist, anti-
working class person, recruited by the Tory government quite deliberately for the purpose of destroying trade
unionism in the mining industry. I will not suffer any grief, not will I in any way cry over the loss of Ian MacGregor."

1938 Participant, Colloquium Walter Lippmann
6.1940- economic advisor to the De Gaulle Government-in-exile in Great Britain
Before the final phase of the war he had already sketched plans for the reconstruction of France and the rest of
Europe. 1943 represented the Government-in-exile in Washington for a purchasing
mission
After the war first director of the foreign trade department in the French Ministry of Economic
Affairs
later junior minister for the reconstruction of France
He initiated the economic development of France for the following decades. In
contrast with Ludwig Erhard of Germany, Marjolin implemented a strong state
control of the economy. This contrast defined the relationship between the French
and German economic policies for the remainder of the 20th century.
According to Meyssan all this was related to Jean Monnet:
„Robert Marjolin joins Jean Monnet in London in 1940, by whose side he will remain. He follows Monnet to
Washington in 1943 where Monnet busies himself in serving American interests in North Africa, then in organising
supplies to France after the Liberation. Marjolin accompanies Monnet to Paris in 1946 when Monnet is named
Commissioner-General of the Planning Board; Marjolin becomes the Assistant Commissioner.“

Marjolin was particularly involved with the Marshall Plan for assistance to Europe.
8.1947 published a memorandum which helped persuade the US Congress to support the plan.
1948-1955 Chairman, OEEC
He tried to divert the organization from its course as a purely technical authority for the administration of the
European trade relations. He wanted it to become politically active, in order to achieve both an economic and also an
increasing political integration of European countries. Towards the end of 1954 Marjolin surprisingly resigned
from his OEEC position
member of the staff of the socialist minister of foreign affaires Christian Pineau
and
economics professor at the University of Nancy
1955 Led the French delegation in negotiations on the formation of the European
Economic Community (EEC). He attached particular importance to setting a common economic policy, a financial
and monetary policy and as a result got the support of the German delegation leader Alfred Mueller Armack as well
as its deputy Hans von der Groeben.
1958-1967 European Commissioner for Economy and Finance
In 1962, with Robert Triffin, Belgian-American economist and CFR member and economic adviser to the Action
Committee for the United States of Europe of Jean Monnet, Robert Marjolin devised a programme of action for the
second stage of the European Economic Community. Conforming with the wishes of Walter Hallstein, the programme
proposed to refashion the Treaty of Rome in a more federalist direction, opening the road to the realisation of
economic and monetary union.
Robert Marjolin detested Charles de Gaulle, who returned the compliment.
Robert Marjolin ended his career on the board of the oil multinational Royal Dutch Shell.

5.1919 had a series of secret meetings with various German officials in which he offered
on
behalf of his government to revise the peace terms of the upcoming Treaty of
Versailles in Germany's favour in regards to territorial and economic clauses of the
proposed treaty. During his meetings, Massigli let the Germans know of the deep
divisions between the "Big Three" at the Paris Peace Conference, namelyWoodrow
Wilson, David Lloyd George and Georges Clemenceau. Speaking on behalf of the
French government, Massilgi informed the Germans that the French considered the
"Anglo-Saxon powers", namely the United States and the British Empire to be the
real post-war threat to France, argued that both France and Germany had a
common
interest in opposing "Anglo-Saxon domination" of the world and warned that the
"deepening of opposition" between the French and the Germans "would lead to the
ruin of both countries, to the advantage of the Anglo-Saxon powers"

Conditions at the Embassy were tense, as Marine Sergeant Clayton Lonetree had
been found to have compromised Embassy security. Within a few months of the
Lonetree scandal, all U.S. intelligence assets in the Soviet Union had been
exposed.
The Americans suspected that the security breach had meant that the Embassy
code
room was no longer secure and worked frantically to determine how. It was not
until
1994 that Aldrich Ames, a mole within the CIA, was caught. Another mole, Robert
Hanssen, this time within the FBI, was caught only in 2001.
6.1991 Matlock received word of a coup planned against Gorbachev, and warned
him.
It was to no avail: shortly after his July summit with Bush, Gorbachev was

Because of his stature in the legal world and his long association with the Rockefellers and as a presidential adviser,
he was sometimes referred to as the "Chairman of the American Establishment."

Germany for the destruction caused by the 1916 Black Tom explosion.
He did a great deal of work for corporations in Nazi Germany and advised the
major German chemical combine I. G. Farben, later notorious for
manufacturing Zyklon B.
Generally strong interest in intelligence and in German affairs.
1940-2009 Member, CFR
9.1940 Consultant for US Secretary of War, Henry Stimson
22.4.1941-11./12.1945 Assistant Secretary of War but held only civilian responsibilities, especially the
purchase of war materials for the Army, Lend Lease, the draft, and issues of
intelligence and sabotage.
McCloy was a crucial voice in setting US military priorities and played a key role
in
several notable decisions. [?!]
According to Kai Bird, in his biography of McCloy, "More than any individual,
McCloy was responsible for the decision“ to intern Japanese-Americans from their
homes on the US West Coast to internment camps.
1944 The War Department was petitioned throughout late 1944 to help save Nazi-held
prisoners by ordering the bombing of the railroad lines leading to Auschwitz and
the
gas chambers in the camp. McCloy responded in a letter dated 4 July 1944 to John
W. Pehle of the War Refugee Board, "The War Department is of the opinion that
the
suggested air operation is impracticable. It could be executed only by the diversion
of considerable air support essential to the success of our forces now engaged in
decisive operations and would in any case be of such doubtful efficacy that it
would
not amount to a practical project." McCloy had no direct authority over the Army
Air Forces and could not overrule its choice of targets; the Army Air Forces, led by
General Hap Arnold was adamantly opposed to any outside civilian group choosing
its targets.
An indefatigable committee member, McCloy during the war served on the
government task forces that built the Pentagon, created the Office of Strategic
Services, which eventually became the Central Intelligence Agency, and he
proposed both the United Nations and the war crimes tribunals. He chaired the
predecessor to the National Security Council. As chairman of the Army's Advisory
Committee on Negro Troop Policy, at first he opposed the civil rights spokesman
who wanted the Army to end segregation. However, he changed his mind and in
late
1945, just before leaving the government to return to Wall Street, he proposed
ending segregation in the military.
1945 he and Stimson convinced President Truman to reject the Morgenthau Plan and to
avoid stripping Germany of its industrial capacity.
11./12.1945 Name partner in the Rockefeller-associated prominent New York law firm
Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy
In that capacity, he acted for the "Seven Sisters", the leading multinational oil
companies, including Exxon, in their initial confrontations with the nationalization

Late 11.1963 Member, Warren Commission in late November 1963.
He was initially skeptical of the lone gunman theory, but a trip to Dallas with CIA
veteran Allen Dulles, an old friend also serving on the Commission, convinced him
of the case against Oswald. To avoid a minority dissenting report, McCloy
brokered
the final consensus and the crucial wording of the primary conclusion of the final
report. He stated that any possible evidence of a conspiracy was "beyond the
reach"
of all of America's investigatory agencies, principally the FBI and the CIA as well
as
the Commission itself.

dealt with domestic security during the social upheavals of the late 1960s
During the 1967 Newark riots (July 12–17, 1967) and the 1967 Detroit riot (July
23, 1967), ill-prepared Army National Guard troops were despatched to suppress
the riots.
On October 21, 1967, some 35,000 anti-war protesters organized by the National
Mobilization Committee to End the War in Vietnam, gathered for a demonstration
at the Defense Department (the "March on the Pentagon"), where they were
confronted by some 2,500 armed soldiers. During the protest, a famous event
occurred, where George Harris placed carnations into the soldiers' gun barrels.
Abbie Hoffman declared the group's intention of levitating the Pentagon 300 feet
(90 m) by means of meditation, wobbling it once in mid-air in order to exorcise
evil spirits. In the wake of these protests McGiffert took the lead in organizing the
Directorate for Civil Disturbance Planning and Operation, a "domestic war room"
at the Pentagon. About this time, the Pentagon also set up a large computer
database containing the names of individuals suspected of fostering domestic
disturbances. (This controversial program would be shut down in 1970.)
At Secretary McNamara's direction, McGiffert then headed a civil disturbance
steering committee to examine the domestic use of the United States Armed
Forces. United States Deputy Attorney General Warren Christopher also served on
this committee. In the tense atmosphere, further heightened by the assassination of
Martin Luther King, Jr. on April 4, 1968 and the assassination of Robert F.
Kennedy on June 5, 1968, this committee undertook detailed intelligence and
tactical planning based on "worst case" domestic scenarios.

Systems
1997-2000 CEO & Chairman, Lucent Technologies
oversaw and directed engineering, research and investments of more than $4
billion annually at Bell Labs
member, Business Council
„It was way back in December 2000 that Lucent reported it had overstated its
revenues for its latest quarter by nearly $700 million. Behind the scenes there was
denial: Richard A. McGinn, Lucent's CEO, a salesman to the core--and a man who
had just used $45 million of Lucent's money to build a golf course near its
headquarters!--kept optimistically talking about "recovery" and driving to make it
happen. He blamed his managers for poor execution when the problem had deeper
roots.
Lucent says the U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey is conducting an
investigation into what some of the company's employees did. But when all the
targets become known, they will almost surely not include the man once at
Lucent's top: Rich McGinn, 56, who was fired as CEO two months before the $700
million disclosure. McGinn, says Schacht, was not fired for doing anything illegal
and hasn't since been found culpable. No, the signal event in McGinn's life after
Lucent is that he collected $12.5 million in severance. If you are a bigtime CEO,
true, getting fired is ignominious stuff. But $12.5 million certainly makes the going
easier.
McGinn's escape raises real questions about the nature of guilt in these affairs. By
a definition that could rationally be plugged into every corporate dictionary,
McGinn did do wrong--by demanding too much. In 2000 he pushed his managers
for results they could not deliver--not, apparently, without some crossing a legal
line. The pressures that McGinn applied were described in the complaint that
Aversano filed, which charged that he and the company had set unreachable goals
that caused them to mislead the public. Obviously that was an adversary's claim,
undermined in addition by the SEC charges that may be made against Aversano.
But McGinn's push was acknowledged as well by Schacht, now 68, who had
preceded McGinn as CEO, stayed on the Lucent board, and returned to take over
when McGinn was ousted.“ [source?]

radical pro-free speech (i.e. Against anti-hate speech legislation):
In a February 2012 article, he maintained that “the combination of a debt crisis, an
aging population addicted to public welfare benefits, one and a half decades of low
growth rates, and increasing competition...is revealing the dark underbelly of
welfarism” in Denmark. “It is not an overstatement,” he claimed, “to say that the
balance between the state and the individual has been shifted decisively in favor of
the state.” Because of a growing need for higher tax income, the Danish
government was now harassing citizens in ways that violated their rights, and was
dangerously skewing “the balance between public welfare and the free market...in
favour of the former,” thus revealing the tendency of the welfare state to eat away
at “the capitalist foundation which sustains it” and the fact that welfare ultimately
“comes not only at the expense of economic freedom but also individual freedom
and choice.”

Vlasova's husband, Alexander Godunov, who had defected two days earlier had
expressed his belief that his wife was returning to the Soviet Union against her
will. Vlasova steadily maintained that she was returning voluntarily, but the U.S.
representation was unwilling to accept her statement unless they could speak with
her in the absence of Soviet officials. This request was denied.
Eventually Soviet officials allowed Vlasova to speak with U.S. representatives in a
mobile lounge that was brought up to the plane. She convinced them that she was
not returning under coercion, and the plane took off with Vlasova on board.

-1973 Chairman & CEO, Candian Imperial Bank of Commerce
The Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce was formed through the June 1, 1961 merger of the Canadian Bank of
Commerce (founded 1867) and the Imperial Bank of Canada (founded 1873), the largest merger between chartered
banks in Canadian history.
In 1960, Imperial chairman Stuart Mackersy approached Neil McKinnon the President of the Commerce with a
proposal to merge the two banks. This followed a decade of expansion in the Canadian economy and Canada's
capitalization of the industrialization of its natural resources. They quickly reached a deal between the two banks.
On June 1, 1961, the Canadian Bank of Commerce and the Imperial Bank of Canada merged to form the Canadian
Imperial Bank of Commerce with over 1,200 branches across Canada. The new bank possessed the greatest resources
and the most branches of any bank in the country.
CIBC agreed to merge with the Toronto-Dominion Bank in 1998. However the Government of Canada, at the
recommendation of then Finance Minister Paul Martin, blocked the merger – as well as another proposed by the Bank
of Montreal with the Royal Bank of Canada – as not in the best interest of Canadians.

found the conference boring and waste of time
McLuhan's The Gutenberg Galaxy: The Making of Typographic Man (written in 1961, first published in Canada by
University of Toronto Press in 1962) is a pioneering study in the fields of oral culture, print culture, cultural studies,
and media ecology.
Throughout the book, McLuhan takes pains to reveal how communication technology (alphabetic writing, the
printing press, and the electronic media) affects cognitive organization, which in turn has profound ramifications for
social organization.
His famous aphorism "the medium is the message" (elaborated in his 1964 book, Understanding Media: The
Extensions of Man) calls attention to this intrinsic effect of communications media
1967-1968 Albert Schweitzer Chair in Humanities at Fordham University
At a Fordham lecture in 1999, Tom Wolfe suggested that a major under-acknowledged influence on McLuhan's work
is the Jesuit philosopher Pierre Teilhard de Chardin whose ideas anticipated those of McLuhan, especially the
evolution of the human mind into the "noosphere". In fact, McLuhan warns against outright dismissing or whole-
heartedly accepting de Chardin's observations early on in his first published book The Mechanical Bride (p. 32):
"This externalization of our senses creates what de Chardin calls the 'noosphere' or a technological brain for the
world. Instead of tending towards a vast Alexandrian library the world has become a computer, an electronic brain,
exactly as in an infantile piece of science fiction. And as our senses have gone outside us, Big Brother goes inside.
So, unless aware of this dynamic, we shall at once move into a phase of panic terrors, exactly befitting a small world
of tribal drums, total interdependence, and super-imposed co-existence."

the draft agreement as a flagrant violation of at least four articles of the UN Charter. More disturbing to non-
communist delegates was the attack by Finn Moe of Norway (homeland of the then UN secretary-general, Trygve
Lie). He said that it was impossible for Norway to accept the Bank and Fund agreements because of their special-
privilege clauses“

son-in-law of: Allen Dulles (husband of Joan Dulles)
1944 versteckte sich Molden bei Partisanen im Apennin, dann gelang ihm die Flucht über Mailand in das Tessin. In
der Schweiz wurde er gleich durch die Schweizer Polizei verhaftet. Er konnte jedoch mit Max Waibel, dem Chef des
schweizerischen militärischen Nachrichtendienst ein Abkommen treffen, das im Sommer 1944 auch schriftlich
festgehalten wurde: Mitglieder des österreichischen Widerstands durften sich in der Schweiz ungehindert bewegen,
im Austausch dafür würden sie die Schweiz über alle die Schweiz betreffenden Pläne und Vorbereitungen der
Wehrmacht auf dem Laufenden halten. Fritz Molden kehrte im September 1944 aus der Schweiz nach Österreich
zurück. Es gelang ihm ein Nachrichtennetz mit etwa 40 Leuten aufzubauen. Bis zu seiner Verhaftung im Jänner 1945
konnte Frederiksen so wöchentlich wichtige Informationen an die Alliierten in der Schweiz schicken.

56 cancelled last minute
Member, ACUSE
1946-1969 Leader, French Section of the Workers' International (SFIO) party
1956-1957 Prime Minister
Mollet represented the left-wing of the party which feared the dissolution of the Socialist identity in a centerist
conglomerate. However, if he kept a Marxist language, he accepted the alliance with the center and center-right
parties during the Fourth Republic.
1950–51 Minister for European Relations
1951 Deputy Prime Minister
represented France at the Council of Europe
1951-1969 Vice-President of the Socialist International.
During the 1956 legislative campaign, he created a center-left coalition called the Republican Front with the Radical
Party of Pierre Mendès-France, the Democratic and Socialist Union of the Resistance led by François Mitterrand and
the Social Gaullists headed by Jacques Chaban-Delmas. It won the election in promising to re-establish the peace in
Algeria. Leader of the main party of the coalition, Mollet led and formed the cabinet in January 1956.
Although Mollet wanted to concentrate on domestic issues, he found himself confronted with a major foreign policy
issue, concerning Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser's continued support for Algerian nationalists, and his
nationalisation of the Suez Canal, which lead to the Suez Crisis.
As that crisis escalated, previously secret British cabinet papers show that in September 1956, Mollet requested to
merge France and the United Kingdom and again, two weeks later, for France to join the Commonwealth of Nations.
[1] Both requests were turned down by the British prime minister Anthony Eden, and a year later France signed the
Treaty of Rome with Germany and the other founding nations of the Common market.
in October 1956 Mollet, Eden and the Israeli Prime Minister, David Ben-Gurion met and secretly colluded to attack
Egypt jointly. The Israelis invaded Egypt first, with British and French troops invading the northern Suez Canal area,
shortly thereafter. But the scheme met with unexpected opposition from the United States, both at the United Nations
and economically; France and the United Kingdom were forced into a humiliating backdown. Eden resigned as a
result, but Mollet survived the crisis, despite fierce criticism from the left.
In foreign policy, Mollet negotiated and signed the Treaty of Rome, creating the European Economic Community.

He is one of the most controversial of the French Socialist leaders. His name is tied up with the SFIO decline and his
repressive policy in Algeria. In French political language, the word molletisme equates to duplicity, making left-wing
speeches to win elections then implementing a conservative policy.

Activities, chaired by Idaho Senator Frank Church, that investigated alleged abuses by the Central Intelligence
Agency and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Played key role: Although widely known as the 'Church Committee,'
Senator Mondale assumed operational leadership of the investigation—according to the Committee chief counsel
Frederick A. O. Schwartz, Jr.—following Senator Church's decision to run for president. He criticized the CIA's use
of "plausible deniability"—the denial of blame in loose and informal chains of command where confirming
responsibility for the action is nearly impossible—and stressed the need for accountability in all areas of intelligence.

including: Scania AB & Volvo (1999), WorldCom & Sprint (2000), General Electric & Honeywell (2001), Schneider
Electric & Legrand (2001) and Carnival Corporation & P&O Ferries (2002). His term in office also saw the European

although two were decided by his predecessor.

He is a member of the Praesidium of Friends of Europe. He was the founding chairman of Bruegel, another European

In September 2006, Moratinos became the first government official to appear before the European Parliament’s
committee investigating CIA activity in Europe.
In his capacity as minister, Moratinos was the Chairman-in-Office of the Organization for Security and Co-operation
in Europe (OSCE) in 2007.
By the end of 2009, Moratinos was mentioned by news media as a potential candidate for the position of High
Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy; the post later went to Catherine Ashton instead.
In 2010, Moratinos was given a new mission as a special envoy trying to defuse a row between Israel and Egypt that
threatened to derail, for the second time, a summit of the Union for the Mediterranean.
in 2011, he was nominated by the Spanish government as a candidate for the position of director general of FAO.
However, on June 26 he lost to Brazilian José Graziano da Silva. He received 88 votes out of 180 cast in the second
round, while Graziano da Silva won 92.
In mid-2012, Moratinos was among the candidates at the United Nations for a possible replacement of Kofi Annan as
UN-Arab League Joint Special Envoy for Syria.

In 1984, Powell claimed that the Central Intelligence Agency had murdered Earl Mountbatten of Burma, and that the
assassination of the MPs Airey Neave and Robert Bradford were carried out at the direction of elements in the
Government of the United States of America with the strategic objective of preventing Neave's policy of integration
of Ulster fully into the United Kingdom. Then, in 1986, Powell stated that the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA)
had not killed Neave but that "MI6 and their friends" were responsible, Powell citing as his sources for such an
astonishing accusation by a British parliamentarian information that had been disclosed to him from within the Royal
Ulster Constabulary.

Rupert Murdoch billionnaire USA media (CFR) 88


In 1968, Murdoch entered the British newspaper market with his acquisition of the populist News of the World,
followed in 1969 with the purchase of the struggling daily broadsheet The Sun
During the 1980s and early 1990s, Murdoch's publications were generally supportive of Britain's Prime Minister

Margaret Thatcher. At the end of the Thatcher/Major era, Murdoch switched his support to the Labour Party and its
leader, Tony Blair [BB 93]. The closeness of his relationship with Blair and their secret meetings to discuss national
policies was to become a political issue in Britain
1994- ongoing Member, CFR
Murdoch identifies himself as a libertarian, saying "What does libertarian mean? As much individual responsibility as
possible, as little government as possible, as few rules as possible. But I'm not saying it should be taken to the
absolute limit."
In June 2016, The Sun supported Vote Leave in the United Kingdom European Union membership referendum.
Murdoch called the Brexit result “wonderful”, comparing the decision to withdraw from the EU as like “a prison
break….we’re out”
According to Forbes' real time list of world's billionaires, Murdoch is the 34th richest person in the US and the 96th
richest person in the world, with a net worth of US$13.1 billion as of February 2017
In November 2015, former Australian prime minister Tony Abbott said that Murdoch "arguably has had more impact
on the wider world than any other living Australian"

Charles Murray USA academia 14 16


education: Harvard, MIT
1990- ongoing fellow, American Enterprise Institute
2009 Irving Kristol Award
Murray's law is a set of conclusions derived by Charles Murray in his book Losing Ground: American Social Policy,
1950–1980. Essentially, it states that all social welfare programs are doomed to effect a net harm on society, and
actually hurt the very people those programs are trying to help. In the end, he concludes that all social welfare
programs cannot be successful and should ultimately be eliminated altogether.
Murray's Law:
The Law of Imperfect Selection: Any objective rule that defines eligibility for a social transfer program will
irrationally exclude some persons.
The Law of Unintended Rewards: Any social transfer increases the net value of being in the condition that prompted
the transfer.
The Law of Net Harm: The less likely it is that the unwanted behavior will change voluntarily, the more likely it is
that a program to induce change will cause net harm.
The Bell Curve: Intelligence and Class Structure in American Life (1994) is a controversial bestseller that Charles
Murray wrote with the Harvard professor Richard J. Herrnstein. Its central thesis is that intelligence is a
better predictor of many factors including financial income, job performance, unwed pregnancy, and crime
than one's parents' socio-economic status or education level. Also, the book argued that those with high
intelligence (the "cognitive elite") are becoming separated from the general population of those with average
and below-average intelligence, and that this was a dangerous social trend.

billionnaire
founder of Digicel. He was listed among the World's Top 200 Billionaires in 2015 and is also Ireland's richest native-
born citizen
O'Brien owns Communicorp, a media holding company which operates across Europe, particularly in Ireland
O'Brien also owns telecoms provider Digicel, which operates in 31 markets across the Caribbean, Central America
and Oceania.
O'Brien set up and chaired the Esat Digifone consortium which acquired a mobile phone licence in the 1990s. The
Moriarty Tribunal found almost beyond doubt that O'Brien's was awarded this contract due to payments he made to
Michael Lowry, the then communications minister, who unduly influenced the bidding process. This contract formed
the basis of O'Brien's fortune.
Digicel was involved in an extensive court battle with the Jamaican Office of Utilities Regulation (OUR) throughout
the 2000s.
O'Brien owned Topaz Energy until early 2016, having bought €300 million of its loans from Irish Bank Resolution
Corporation (IBRC). In May 2014, O'Brien appointed former Taoiseach Brian Cowen to the board of Topaz to join
himself, his nephew (who was also CEO of Smiles Dental), Sean Corkey (CEO of O'Brien's SiteServ), Lucy Gaffney
(chairperson of O'Brien's Communicorp) and Colm Doherty (former managing director of Allied Irish Banks). In
December 2014, Topaz's parent company Kendrick Investments announced it would buy all of Esso's Irish operations.
Profits at Topaz increased between April 2013 and March 2014.
The sale of Topaz was announced in January 2016. It is estimated that O’Brien sold the network of 444 filling stations
for about €450 million, more than double what he paid to gain control of it from the special liquidators of the state-
owned Irish Bank Resolution Corporation (IBRC) in 2013.

He was jointly awarded the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences in 1977 together with the British economist
James Meade "for their pathbreaking contribution to the theory of international trade and international capital
movements".
In 1933 Ohlin published a work that made him world-renowned, Interregional and International Trade. In this Ohlin
built an economic theory of international trade from earlier work by Heckscher and his own doctoral thesis. It is now
known as the Heckscher–Ohlin model, one of the standard model economists use to debate trade theory.
Today, the theory has been largely disproved, yet it is still a useful framework by which to understand international
trade.

H. Oosterhuis NED jesuit priest 54


Oosterhuis was a Jesuit and Roman Catholic priest.
In 1954, inspired by Che Guevara who said that churches have the potential to transform the social structure of
society, Oosterhuis combined his priesthood with political activism.
In 1965, Oosterhuis became one of the major supporters of ecumenism, following the modernist interpretation of the
Second Vatican Council.
His political views, conflicts regarding the liturgy and unorthodox views regarding priestly celibacy led to Oosterhuis
being dismissed from the Jesuit order in 1969

William D. Ormsby-Gore UK diplomat/politician 58


1957-1961 Minister of State for Foreign Affairs
Like Macmillan, Ormsby-Gore was distantly related to Kennedy, but had a closer relationship than did Macmillan
with the President-elect and his brother Robert. Six months after Kennedy took office Ormsby-Gore was in
Washington, D.C. Referred to under the Kennedy administration as "our kind of Ambassador", he supplied Kennedy
with a stream of advice and Cuban cigars via his diplomatic bag. He was almost a resident at the White House, being
more a friend of the family than a mere ambassador. After President Kennedy's assassination there were rumours of a
romance between Ormsby-Gore and Jacqueline Kennedy. In 1968 he proposed marriage to her, but, she did not
accept.
1961-1965 Ambassador to US
On 9 February 1940, Lord Harlech married Sylvia Thomas, daughter of Hugh Lloyd Thomas and Hon Guendaline
Ada Bellew. Before Lady Harlech's death in an automobile accident on 30 May 1967, they had five children:
·Hon Julian Hugh Ormsby-Gore (1940–1974), who died of gunshot wounds, an apparent suicide.
·Hon Jane Teresa Denyse Ormsby-Gore (b. 1942), who was said to have had an affair with Mick Jagger during the
1960s; some consider the Rolling Stones song "Lady Jane" to be about her.
·Hon Victoria Mary Ormsby-Gore (b. 1946)
·Hon Alice Magdalen Sarah Ormsby-Gore (1952–1995), who became engaged to rock guitarist Eric Clapton in 1969.
[8] She and Clapton lived together for five years, but did not marry. She subsequently died of a heroin overdose in
1995, on the day before her 43rd birthday.
·Francis David Ormsby-Gore, 6th Baron Harlech (1954–2016), who married Amanda Jane Grieve (b. 1959), daughter
of Alan Grieve
On 11 December 1969, Lord Harlech married Pamela Colin, an American. The wedding was attended by Princess
Margaret, the Duke and Duchess of Devonshire, the Earl and Countess of Drogheda, the Earl and Countess of Airlie,
The Countess Gowrie, Lord and Lady David Cecil, Sir Fitzroy Maclean, J. J. Astor and The Hon. Michael Astor

which he asked for and received from French authorities in 2010. While Papakonstantinou asked the Greek tax
authorities to investigate the list, they failed to do so. In late 2012, prosecutors asked for a fresh copy of the Greek list
and compared it to the one they had, they found that three names were missing from the list, all relatives of
Papakonstantinou. Those allegations resulted in his expulsion from the PASOK political party

Jacques Parizeau CAN politician 68


[optisch: Rockefeller cousin]
A believer in economic interventionism, he was one of the most important advisors to the provincial government
during the 1960s, playing an important behind-the-scenes role in the Quiet Revolution. He was especially
instrumental in the nationalization of Hydro-Québec (a hydro-electric utility) in 1962-1963, the nationalization of the
Asbestos Corporation Limited mines in 1982, and worked with Eric Kierans to create the Quebec Pension Plan in
1963-1966.
He joked that the Quiet Revolution was essentially carried out by three or four cabinet ministers, two dozen civil
servants and 50 chansonniers. (At the end of his career, he said that he would like to be remembered most for his
contributions to the reformation of Quebec.)
Parizeau gradually became a committed sovereigntist, and officially joined the Parti Québécois (PQ) on September
19, 1969.
It was revealed in 2013 that federal Prime Minister Brian Mulroney offered in 1987 to appoint Parizeau as an
independent Senator in his attempt to secure passage of the Canada–United States Free Trade Agreement through the
upper house as well as part of his strategy to achieve reconciliation with Quebec sovereigntists which led to the
Meech Lake Accord. Parizeau rejected the offer and went on to become PQ leader and premier.

1954-1956 Member, CFR

Sean Parker billionaire USA industry 10


is an American entrepreneur and philanthropist who cofounded the file-sharing computer service Napster and served
as the first president of the social networking website Facebook.
He won the Virginia state computer science fair for developing a Web crawler, and was recruited by the C.I.A. By his
senior year of high school, Parker was earning more than $80,000 a year through various projects, enough to convince
his parents to allow him to skip college and pursue a career as an entrepreneur.
As a child, Parker was an avid reader, which was the beginning of his lifelong autodidacticism. Several media profiles
refer to Parker as a genius. He considers his time at Napster to be his college education, calling it "Napster
University," since he became well-versed in intellectual property law, corporate finance, and entrepreneurship.
In 2004 Parker saw a site called "The Facebook" on the computer of his roommate’s girlfriend, who was a student at
Stanford. Parker had experience in the social networking industry as an early advisor to Friendster and its founder,
Jonathan Abrams, for which he was given a small amount of stock in 2003. Parker met with Mark Zuckerberg and
Eduardo Saverin, and a few months later joined the five-month-old company as its president. According to Peter Thiel
[BB 07-17], Facebook’s first investor, Sean Parker was the first to see potential in the company to be "really big," and
that "if Mark ever had any second thoughts, Sean was the one who cut that off."
As president, Parker brought on Thiel as Facebook’s first investor. In the initial round of funding, he negotiated for
Zuckerberg to retain three of Facebook’s five board seats, which gave Zuckerberg control of the company and
allowed Facebook the freedom to remain a private company. Additionally, Parker is said to have championed
Facebook’s clean user interface and developed its photo-sharing function. Zuckerberg notes that "Sean was pivotal in
helping Facebook transform from a college project into a real company."
During a party in 2005 police entered and searched a vacation home Parker was renting and found cocaine. Parker
was arrested on suspicion of drug possession, but was not charged. This event caused Facebook investors to pressure
Parker into resigning as company president. Even after stepping down, Parker continued to remain involved with
Facebook’s growth and met regularly with Zuckerberg. The event was later dramatized in the movie The Social
Network.
Parker has made substantial donations to both sides of U.S. party politics; his allegedly "non-partisan" approach
favors contributions to "elected officials who have shown themselves willing to work across the aisle." He favored
Democrats as well as progressive causes such as campaign finance reform and gun control; he has spoken out in favor
of higher taxes, particularly for the "wealthy and super wealthy," and in favor of higher capital gains taxes. Parker has
also supported middle-of-the-road Republican candidates and super PACs, favoring "economically moderate"
conservatives and candidates with a demonstrated interest in compromise and deal-making. In Washington, he has
met with Republican lawmakers about ways of encouraging economic investment in struggling areas of the country.
He has also supported cannabis law reform

1980-1985 McKinsey
after: Carlo de Benedetti group
In 1991, he became general manager of Arnoldo Mondadori Editore and, subsequently, of Gruppo Editoriale
L'Espresso. Continuing his working relationship with the Cir Group, Passera served as co-managing director of the
Olivetti Group from September 1992 to July 1996, a period when the IT company expanded into telecommunications
with the creation of Omnitel and Infostrada.
In 1996, he was appointed managing director and general manager of Banco Ambrosiano Veneto, where he carried
out the first major banking consolidation deal with Cariplo, one of Italy's most important banks.
Passera left his position at Poste Italiane as he was called to cover the role of managing director at Banca Intesa. In
his new position, he drew up a business plan that included key strategic objectives such as the recovery of efficiency,
the reorganisation of the business, cost reduction, the restructuring of products and the revival of the bank's image.
When this process was completed in 2005, Banca Intesa was one of Italy's most profitable banks and was viewed in
the international markets as one of the most significant examples of business turnarounds in the financial services
industry.
In 2006, Passera was one of the main proponents who helped to carve out a process that ultimately led to the merger
of Banca Intesa and Sanpaolo IMI, and the ensuing creation of Intesa Sanpaolo. Intesa Sanpaolo is Italy's leading
banking group, partly due to an unparalleled distribution network, with a strong international presence concentrated
in Central-Eastern Europe and the Mediterranean basin.
Passera is member of the Board of Directors of Bocconi University and Fondazione Teatro alla Scala. He is a Director
and Member of the Executive Committee of the Italian Banking Association and a member of the International
Advisory Board of The Wharton School. He also is a member of the Board of Governors of the Cini Foundation in
Venice and of the Geneva World Economic Forum's International Business Council.
Cini foundation: The Foundation is located in the former San Giorgio Monastery on the island of San Giorgio
Maggiore, Venice. The foundation was established by Vittorio Cini in memory of his son, Giorgio Cini, who died in
an airplane accident near Cannes in 1949.
Vittorio Cini had a long relationship with the Italian Fascist party, joining in 1926, and had occupied influential
positions within government and industry throughout the decades of Benito Mussolini's rule.
Part of the original purpose of the Foundation was to rebuild the convent that had been destroyed by Napoleon and
later used by the Austrian Army, then the Italian Army, and rehabilitate the island within the context of the cultural
history of Venice. It now houses a historical library of about 15 000 volumes, an archive of manuscripts, and a
collection concerning documents about history, music, theater and art. It is also a venue for exhibitions, concerts and
meetings. As such it was a meeting place for the G7 meetings in 1980 and 1987.

George Pataki USA politician 06


education: Yale
1995-2006 Governor, New York
During the first years of Pataki's administration, he began to institute major spending cuts, which he has advocated
for most of his career. Among the cost cutting initiatives was a push to privatize the World Trade Center from the Port
Authority of New York and New Jersey. For more than 20 years, the New York City governor's office had been in the
Center. The privatization effort took effect a few weeks before the September 11 attack when Larry Silverstein
assumed a 99-year lease for $3.2 billion.
Pataki has formed an environmental consulting firm with his former chief of staff John Cahill, the Pataki-Cahill
Group and work with the Council on Foreign Relations on climate change issues. In the climate change issue, he is
working with former Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack. He also serves as the Vice-Chairman of the board of directors for the
American Security Council Foundation.
In September 2007, President George W. Bush appointed Pataki as a United States delegate to the 2007 United
Nations General Assembly session. In this capacity, Pataki attended various meetings of the UN General Assembly
and GA committees on behalf of the United States, during the annual GA session.

Aurelio Peccei ITA industry (FIAT) 63 64 67 68


His knowledge of other languages brought him to Fiat S.p.A.. Although under continual suspicion as an anti-fascist in
the early 1930s, in 1935 a successful mission for Fiat in China established his position in Fiat management.
During World War II, Peccei became involved in the anti-fascist movement and in the resistance, where he was a
member of the "Giustizia e Libertà". Peccei's work with the anti-fascist underground during the war caught up with
him in 1944, when he was arrested, imprisoned, tortured, came within an ace of execution and escaped to lie in
hiding until the liberation.
After the war, Peccei was engaged in the rebuilding of Fiat. Furthermore, he was engaged in various private and
public efforts then underway to rebuild Italy, including the founding of Alitalia.
In 1949, he accepted to go to Latin America for Fiat, to restart their operations,
In 1964, Peccei was asked to become President of Olivetti. Olivetti was facing significant difficulties at that time
due to the profound changes occurring in the office machine sector. Peccei, with his foresight and his entrepreneurial
vision, was able to turn the situation at Olivetti around.

1968 co-founder, Club of Rome (w/ Alexander King [BB 1970])


Peccei accordingly persuaded the Agnelli Foundation to fund a two-day brainstorming meeting on 7–8 April 1968 of
around 30 European economists and scientists at the Accademia dei Lincei in Rome. The goal of the meeting was to
discuss the ideas of Peccei and King of the globality of problems facing mankind and of the necessity of acting at the
global level. The meeting at the Accademia dei Lincei was not a success, partly due to the difficulty of the
participants to focus on a distant future.

2.1974 Peccei [BB 63, 64, 67, 68] persuaded the Austrian Chancellor, Bruno Kreisky, to
host a meeting on North-South problems in Salzburg, Austria. Besides Bruno Kreisky [BB prov 67, 79], the following
heads of state of government were present in Salzburg: Leopold Senghor, President of Senegal; Luis Echeverría,
President of Mexico; Joop den Uyl [BB 85], Prime Minister of the Netherlands; Olof Palme [BB 65, 73, 83] , Prime
Minister of Sweden; Pierre Trudeau [BB 68, 83, 85], Prime Minister of Canada; as well as the representatives of the
Prime Ministers of Algeria and Ireland. Peccei deliberately did not invite any of the major European powers, the
United States of America or the Soviet Union so as to prevent the debate turning into a forum for national or
ideological position statements. To encourage the participants to speak freely, they were asked to come without
accompanying civil servants and assured that nothing they said would be attributed to them. The two-day private
brainstorming meeting ended with a press conference for 300 journalists.
As a logical extension of the Salzburg meeting, Peccei asked Jan Tinbergen to produce a follow-up report on global
food and development policies, exploring these aspects much more thoroughly than the coverage in "The Limits to
Growth". Scholars from the First, Second and Third Worlds were invited to participate in the RIO project (Reshaping
the International Order), though only Poland and Bulgaria accepted from the Communist bloc. The basic thesis was
that the gap between rich and poor countries (with the wealthiest roughly 13 times richer than the poorest) was
intolerable and the situation was inherently unstable, and that ways should be searched for to try to reduce the gap to
6:1 over the next 15 to 30 years.
The main report argued that people in the rich countries would have to change their patterns of consumption and
accept lower profits, but a dissenting group saw consumption as a symptom rather than a cause of the problems,
which stemmed rather from the fundamental power structure. [Wer?]

Thom de Graaf, the D66 Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Government Reform and Kingdom Relations in the
Second Balkenende cabinet, resigned on 23 March 2005 after the introduction of democratically elected mayors had
been rejected in the Senate. The proposal was especially important; it had become a symbol of the government reform
that the D66 had wanted since the party's creation. Pechtold was asked to succeed him as Minister. Pechtold resigned
as Chairman and Mayor the same day that he took office as the new Minister for Government Reform and Kingdom
Relations, on 31 March 2005.
On 29 June 2006 the D66 retracted its support for the Balkenende cabinet. The next day, Prime Minister Jan Peter
Balkenende offered the resignation of the full cabinet to Queen . Pechtold resigned as Minister for Government
Reform and Kingdom Relations on 3 July 2006. His fellow D66 cabinet member Laurens Jan Brinkhorst, the Deputy
Prime Minister and Minister of Economic Affairs, resigned on 7 July 2006.

1965-4.1967 Vice-Governor of Bank of Greece
played a key role in negotiating his country's treaty of association with the then European Economic Community
(EEC) in 1961. He was more widely known, however, as a critic of the colonels' regime that ruled Greece in the late
60s and early 70s. His forthright, but always temperate, critique of the idiocies of military rule made it that much
more difficult for European governments - including the British - to follow their natural inclination and conduct
business as usual with the colonels.
Born into a prominent banking family
In 1973, he was arrested and held in isolation by the much-feared military police; the international attention attracted
by his arrest helped to protect him from the torture that was routinely meted out to victims of the military police.
On the collapse of the junta in 1974, in the wake of its disastrous entanglement in Cyprus, Pesmazoglou was
appointed economics minister in Karamanlis's "ecumenical" government, which oversaw the return to democracy.
In the elections of November 1974 - the first to be held in Greece for 10 years - Pesmazoglou was elected to
parliament on the Centre Union-New Forces ticket.

In late 1975 was invited by Prince Bernhard to join the SC. His reply, letter from 27 november 1975: „(...) I am
honored by the invitation ... I do not feel however I could accept this most interesting assignment. Since I was elected
Member of Parliament I insited on not assuming any additional responsibilities on a longer baiss. (...) If I were asked
to suggest a possible candidate from Greece for the Steering Committee I would recommend without reservation Mr.
Nickolas Kyriazidis, Deputy Governor of the Bank of Greece and Chairman of the Interdepartemental Commission
for European Cooperation, a man of high standing and sense of responsibility. Another very good candidate would be
Mr. Costas Carras, a well known, relatively young, shipowner and business man, with a sense of moral duty, engaged
in matters of public interest, such as the protection of our physical and cultural environment. (...)

Miranda and myself had the pleasant surprise and great pleasure of meeting Princess Christine and her husband in
Salzburg. A few days earlier we met also in Salzburg Ernst van der Beugel and had a very enjoyable evening. On our
return from England I had a stimulating exchange of ideas in Athens with Laurens Brinkhorst.“

Sir Harry Pilkington UK finance 54 59


Lionel Alexander Bethune Pilkington (Sir Alastair Pilkington; 7 January 1920 – 5 May 1995) and his associate
Kenneth Bickerstaff, both of Great Britain, developed the world's first commercially successful manufacture of high
quality flat glass using their float glass process. American inventors had tried several times to achieve an improved
and lower-cost process to replace the costly plate glass, but had not succeeded. His breakthrough, in which the molten
glass was "floated" over a bath of molten tin and manipulated to achieve the required product thickness, enabled the
UK-based Pilkington Glass company to lead the world market for high quality flat glass for many years.

He was also a director of the Bank of England.

at the same time founder Le Cercle !
Antoine Pinay 30 December 1891, Saint-Symphorien-sur-Coise, Rhône – 13 December 1994, Saint-Chamond, Loire)
was a French conservative politician. He served as Prime Minister of France in 1952.

An official commission in 1946 recognized his long lasting opposition to the Nazis and the help he gave to the
Résistance and let him totally free of any charge.
In 1944 he was first placed on house arrest, and stripped of his right to be candidate to an election on 5 September
1945. After the intervention of René Cassin, the vice-president of the Conseil d'État, who pointed his fierce
opposition to the German occupation, his citizen rights were restored on 5 October 1945. On 2 June 1946 he could
successfully run for election to the Assemblée Constituante as a moderate candidate.[3]
He helped create a conservative party, the National Center of Independents and Peasants (CNIP). He acquired the
reputation as one of France's more spirited politicians and in 1952 became Prime Minister in 1952 by virtue of being
the most popular elected CNIP official. His ministry was seen as the return of the "classical right", discredited since
the Liberation. He stabilized the finances of the French nation and the French currency.
In 1955, he was one of the participants of the Messina Conference, which would lead to the Treaty of Rome in 1957.
During the May 1958 crisis precipitated by the Algerian war, he supported Charles de Gaulle's return to power and
approved of the Fifth Republic's constitution. He served as Finance Minister until 1960.

1981-1982 member, National Security Council
Polish-American academic who specializes in Russian history, particularly with respect to the Soviet Union, who
espoused a strong anti-communist point of view throughout his career.
In 1976 he headed Team B, a team of analysts organized by the Central Intelligence Agency who analyzed the
strategic capacities and goals of the Soviet military and political leadership. Team B was created at the instigation of
then Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld as an antagonist force to a group of CIA intelligence officials known as
Team A. His hope was that it would produce a much more aggressive assessment of Soviet Union military
capabilities. The international relations journalist Fred Kaplan writes that Team B "turns out to have been wrong on
nearly every point."
The Russian writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn has denounced Pipes' work as "the Polish version of Russian history".
Pipes, in turn, has accused Solzhenitsyn of being an anti-Semitic Russian ultra-nationalist, who seeks to blame the ills
of Communism on the Jews rather than to admit to the Russian roots of the Soviet Union.
He is also notable for the thesis that, contrary to many traditional histories of the USSR at the time, the October
Revolution was, rather than a popular general uprising, a coup foisted upon the majority of the Russian population by
a tiny segment of the population driven by a select group of intellectuals who subsequently established a one-party
dictatorship which was intolerant and repressive from the start, rather than having deviated from an initially benign
course.

2000-2009 Chairman, Sustainable Development Commission, set up by Tony Blair [BB 93]
Porritt is a patron of the population concern charity Population Matters, (formerly known as the Optimum Population
Trust). Porritt has stated that population growth is a serious threat to the global environment and that family planning,
including both birth control and abortion, is a part of the answer to global warming.
Porritt's views are based in part on a 2009 report by Thomas Wire at the London School of Economics, commissioned
by Optimum Population Trust.
Porritt is an endorser of the Forests Now Declaration, presented at the United Nations Framework Convention on
Climate Change (UNFCCC) meeting, held in Bali in December 2007. The Declaration calls for new market based
carbon policies and reforms to prioritize the protection of tropical forests. Porritt has strongly criticized proposals by
the UK government to sell off Britain's remaining 635,000 acres of public woodlands, and helped to form the
organization Our Forests in 2012 to protect and expand public and private woodlands throughout England.
Porritt acts as advisor to many bodies on environmental matters, as well as to individuals including Prince Charles.
His best-selling book Capitalism: As if the World Matters was originally published in 2005, and revised and
republished by Earthscan in September 2007. In it he argues that capitalism must be controlled and redirected to
create a sustainable world.
Porritt's book The World We Made (2013) is a futurist account of how the world will have changed by 2050, noted for
both its comprehensiveness and optimism.

Lange Jahre war er später Auslandskorrespondent des ORF in London.
Im Jahre 1991 schlug man ihn als Nachfolger des scheidenden Bundespräsidenten Kurt Waldheim vor, der auf Grund
der Unklarheiten bzw. Missverständnisse über seine Tätigkeit im Zweiten Weltkrieg zur Erleichterung der meisten
Beobachter nicht noch einmal kandidieren wollte. Nach dem angeschlagenen Image im Ausland wollte man einen

bereit gewesen, Hugo Portisch gemeinsam bei der Kandidatur zu unterstützen.

Vor allem mit seinen Dokumentationen Österreich I und Österreich II hat Hugo Portisch das kollektive

der Entnazifizierung und der Selbstausschaltung des Parlaments kritisiert. (Letztere wurde in der Dokumentation mit

While at school, Powell worked at a local baby furniture store, where he picked up Yiddish from the eastern

families with needed tasks on the Sabbath.
Powell was a professional soldier for 35 years, holding a variety of command and staff positions and rising to the rank
of General
In his autobiography, Powell said he is haunted by the nightmare of the Vietnam War and felt that the leadership was
very ineffective.

During this time, he oversaw 28 crises, including the invasion of Panama in 1989 to remove General Manuel Noriega
from power and Operation Desert Storm in the 1991 Persian Gulf War. During these events, Powell earned his
nickname, "the reluctant warrior." He rarely advocated military intervention as the first solution to an international

During his time in Australia as a professor, he grew increasingly angry at the appeasement of Nazi Germany and what
he saw as a betrayal of British national interests.
n 1940 but almost immediately transferred to the Intelligence CorpsIn October 1941, Powell was posted to Cairo and
transferred back to the Royal Warwickshire Regiment. As secretary to the Joint Intelligence Committee, Middle East.
It was in Algiers that the beginning of Powell's distrust of the United States began. After socially mixing with senior
American officers that he met and exploring their cultural views of the world, he became convinced that one of
America's war aims was to destroy the British Empire. He cut out and retained an article from the New Statesman
magazine published on 13 November 1943 in which the American writer and diplomat Clare Boothe Luce said in a
speech that Indian independence from the British Empire would mean that the "USA will really have won the greatest
war in the world for democracy"
He told a colleague that he expected to be head of all military intelligence in "the next war".
Though he voted for the Labour Party in their 1945 landslide victory, because he wanted to punish the Conservative
Party for the Munich agreement, after the war he joined the Conservatives and worked for the Conservative Research
Department under Rab Butler, where his colleagues included Iain Macleod and Reginald Maudling.
1957-1958 Financial Secretary to the Treasury
7.1965-4.1968 Shadow Secretary of Defense
1960-1963 Health Minister
Powell became a national figure following his 20 April 1968 address to the General Meeting of the West Midlands
Area Conservative Political Centre, which became known as the "Rivers of Blood" speech. It pointedly criticised
mass immigration into Britain, especially from the New Commonwealth and opposed the then proposed–anti-
discrimination legislation Race Relations Bill being mooted at the time. In response, Conservative Party leader
Edward Heath sacked Powell from his position as Shadow Defence Secretary (1965–1968) in the Conservative
opposition.
Powell made a speech in Morecambe on 11 October 1968 on the economy, setting out alternative, radical free-market
policies that would later be called the 'Morecambe Budget'. Powell used the financial year of 1968–9 to show how
income tax could be halved from 8s 3d to 4s 3d in the pound (basic rate cut from 41% to 21%) and how capital gains
tax and Selective Employment Tax could be abolished without reducing expenditure on defence or the social services.
These tax reductions required a saving of £2,855 million, and this would be funded by eradicating losses in the
nationalised industries and denationalising the profit-making state concerns; ending all housing subsidies except for
those who could not afford their own housing; ending all foreign aid; ending all grants and subsidies in agriculture;
ending all assistance to development areas; ending all investment grants and abolishing the National Economic
Development Council and the Prices and Incomes Board. The cuts in taxation would also allow the state to borrow
from the public to spend on capital projects such as hospitals and roads and spend on "the firm and humane treatment
of criminals".
In 1984, Powell claimed that the Central Intelligence Agency had murdered Earl Mountbatten of Burma, and that the
assassination of the MPs Airey Neave and Robert Bradford were carried out at the direction of elements in the
Government of the United States of America with the strategic objective of preventing Neave's policy of integration
of Ulster fully into the United Kingdom. Then, in 1986, Powell stated that the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA)
had not killed Neave but that "MI6 and their friends" were responsible, Powell citing as his sources for such an
astonishing accusation by a British parliamentarian information that had been disclosed to him from within the Royal
Ulster Constabulary.

won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1944 for his discovery of nuclear magnetic resonance
During World War II he worked on radar at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Radiation Laboratory
(RadLab) and on the Manhattan Project. In 1942 Oppenheimer attempted to recruit Rabi and Robert Bacher to work
at the Los Alamos Laboratory on a new secret project. They convinced Oppenheimer that his plan for a military
laboratory would not work, since a scientific effort would need to be a civilian affair. The plan was modified, and the
new laboratory would be a civilian one, run by the University of California under contract from the War Department.
In the end, Rabi still did not go west, but did agree to serve as a consultant to the Manhattan Project.[52] Rabi

In March 1995 and May 1995 he was charged with a total of nineteen counts of sexual offences. As of April 2, 1998,
there were eighteen charges, but nine were stayed by Justice J. Michael MacDonald of the Supreme Court of Nova
Scotia. Regan ultimately faced trial on eight charges including rape, attempted rape and forcible confinement, for
crimes allegedly committed in 1956 and 1969 against victims aged 14 and 18 at the time. On December 18, 1998, he
was acquitted on all eight charges by a jury.
On September 10, 1999, by a margin of 2–1, the Nova Scotia Court of Appeal reinstated the nine stayed charges; two
were later dropped, but the others were to be tried together with the other remaining charge. The ruling reinstating the
charges was upheld in a 5–4 decision by the Supreme Court of Canada in February 2002. But in April 2002, the
crown attorney's office announced that it would not continue prosecution on the remaining charges of sexual assault
due to the age of the allegations, the cost and the age of the defendant.

During his time at EPA, Reilly championed integration of the nation's environmental and economic agendas and
sought to strengthen the role of science at EPA.
Reilly played a pivotal role in crafting and securing passage of a new Clean Air bill, enacted by Congress and signed
into law by President Bush in November 1990. Breaking a 10-year stalemate in reauthorizing the Clean Air Act, this
law created the first full-scale, fully operational cap-and-trade system as an innovative, market-oriented mechanism
to cut sulfur dioxide pollution in half at a time when acid rain was a major environmental problem.
After leaving EPA in January 1993, Reilly returned to World Wildlife Fund. Later that year, he and his wife moved to

Reston as a key contact of former CIA chief Allen Dulles who had collaborated with the CIA in Operation

Reston had a particularly close relationship with Henry Kissinger and became one of his stalwart supporters in the
media. At least eighteen conversations between the two are captured in transcripts released by the Department of
State in response to FOIA requests. They document Reston volunteering to approach fellow Times columnist Anthony
Lewis to ask him to moderate his anti-Kissinger texts and offering to plant a question in a press conference for the

1967-1969 Member, CFR
In 1946 he narrowly defeated R. J. Thomas for the UAW presidency, and promptly he purged the UAW of all
communist elements. He was active in the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) umbrella as well, taking the
lead in expelling 11 communist-led unions from the CIO in 1949.
As a prominent figure in the anti-communist left, he was a founder of the Americans for Democratic Action in 1947.
He became president of the CIO in 1952, and negotiated a merger with George Meany and the American Federation
of Labor immediately after, which took effect in 1955. In 1949 he led the CIO delegation to the London conference
that set up the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions in opposition to the communist-dominated World
Federation of Trade Unions. He had left the Socialist Party in 1939, and throughout the 1950s and 1960s was a
leading spokesman for liberal interests in the CIO and in the Democratic Party
In his prime, Reuther was influential and powerful enough to frighten conservatives. In 1958, later presidential
candidate Barry Goldwater declared Reuther a "more dangerous menace than the Sputnik or anything Soviet Russia
might do to America."
He stood beside Martin Luther King Jr. while he made the "I Have A Dream" speech, during the 1963 March on
Washington. Although critical of the Vietnam War, he supported Lyndon Johnson and Hubert Humphrey in 1968, and
met weekly with President Johnson during 1964–65.
On May 9, 1970, Walter Reuther, his wife May, architect Oscar Stonorov, Reuther's bodyguard William Wolfman, the
pilot and co-pilot were killed when their chartered Gates Learjet 23 crashed in flames at 9:33 p.m. Michigan time.
The plane, arriving from Detroit in rain and fog, was on final approach to Pellston Regional Airport in Pellston,
Michigan, near the union's recreational and educational facility at Black Lake, Michigan. The National Transportation
Safety Board discovered that the plane's altimeter was missing parts, some incorrect parts were installed, and one of

its parts had been installed upside down, leading some to speculate that Reuther may have been murdered.
Reuther had earlier survived an April 1948 incident in which he was hit by a shotgun blast through his kitchen
window. Reuther happened to turn towards his wife, and was hit in the arm instead of the chest and heart. The crime
was never solved.

1969-1970 staff researcher, Ford Foundation
After 1968 Rhodes served on a number of national commissions studying such diverse subjects as the causes of
campus unrest and the need for new structures in higher education. He was a consultant to the Office of the Secretary,
Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, 1968–1971. He was a member of the More Effective School
Personnel Utilization (MESPU) Panel in the Office of Education from 1969-1970, and a consultant to the President
Nixon's Counsel from 1969–1970. He was a member of President Nixon's Committee on Voluntary Service, 1969. He
also served on the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare Secretary's Committee on New Structures in Higher
Education (The Newman Committee) (1969–1972), and he was on the Advisory Panel of the National Endowment for
the Humanities, 1971.
Rhodes' service on the President's Commission on Campus Unrest in 1970 brought him to nationwide attention. This
Commission was established specifically to investigate two incidents in 1970 in which unarmed student protesters
were shot and killed by soldiers and policemen, one at Kent State University in Ohio and a second at Jackson State
University in Mississippi. Rhodes was the youngest and least known member of the committee, and its only current
student; his selection for the commission is attributed to his longstanding relationship with John Ehrlichman, who was
a prominent member of then President Richard Nixon's staff. Shortly after his appointment, Rhodes gave a
controversial interview to Robert Reinhold of The New York Times in which he said "If the President's and Vice-
President's statements are killing people, I want to know that" and that California Governor Ronald Reagan was "bent
on killing people for his political gain." The following day, Vice-President Spiro Agnew called publicly for Rhodes to
resign. Rhodes refused, and was a signatory to the Commission's "Scranton Report" in September, 1970.

When the war ended, he pursued a career in banking by joining Andre Istel and Company, a private investment
banking firm owned by a friend of his father, and this gave him an opportunity to visit United States in 1946 for
opening an office of his bank in New York. There, he met Marcel Schlumberger, one of the founders of the
Schlumberger group, and on his invitation, Riboud joined Schlumberger as the founder's assistant in 1951. He
continued in the company even after the death of Marcel Schlumberger in 1953 and rose in ranks to become the head
of Europe operations and later, as the chief executive of the company in 1965. Seven years later, he became the
chairman of the group, in 1972.

Condolezza Rice w afro USA politician CFR 08


Her dissertation centered on military policy and politics in what was then the communist state of Czechoslovakia.
At a 1985 meeting of arms control experts at Stanford, Rice's performance drew the attention of Brent Scowcroft [BB
85, 88, 94], who had served as National Security Advisorunder Gerald Ford. With the election of George H. W. Bush,
Scowcroft returned to the White House as National Security Adviser in 1989, and he asked Rice to become his Soviet
expert on the United States National Security Council. According to R. Nicholas Burns, President Bush was
"captivated" by Rice, and relied heavily on her advice in his dealings with Mikhail Gorbachev and Boris Yeltsin.
Because she would have been ineligible for tenure at Stanford if she had been absent for more than two years, she
returned there in 1991. She was taken under the wing of George P. Shultz (Ronald Reagan's Secretary of State from
1982 to 1989), who was a fellow at the Hoover Institution. Shultz included Rice in a "luncheon club" of intellectuals
who met every few weeks to discuss foreign affairs. In 1992, Shultz, who was a board member of Chevron
Corporation, recommended Rice for a spot on the Chevron board.
In 1986, while an international affairs fellow of the Council on Foreign Relations, Rice served as special assistant to
the director of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
1989-1991 Director, of Soviet and East European Affairs in National Security Council
1993-1999 Provost, Stanford University
1.2001-1.2005 National Security Advisor
During the summer of 2001, Rice met with CIA Director George Tenet to discuss the possibilities and prevention of
terrorist attacks on American targets. On July 10, 2001, Rice met with Tenet in what he referred to as an "emergency
meeting" held at the White House at Tenet's request to brief Rice and the NSC staff about the potential threat of an
impending al Qaeda attack. Rice responded by asking Tenet to give a presentation on the matter to Secretary Donald
Rumsfeld and Attorney General John Ashcroft. Rice characterized the August 6, 2001, President's Daily Brief Bin
Ladin Determined To Strike in US as historical information. Rice indicated "It was information based on old
reporting." Sean Wilentz of Salon magazine suggested that the PDB contained current information based on
continuing investigations, including that Bin Laden wanted to "bring the fighting to America." On September 11,
2001, Rice was scheduled to outline a new national security policy that included missile defense as a cornerstone and
played down the threat of stateless terrorism.
In 2003, Rice received the U.S. Senator John Heinz Award for Greatest Public Service by an Elected or Appointed
Official, an award given out annually by Jefferson Awards.
In March 2004, Rice declined to testify before the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States
(the 9/11 Commission). The White House claimed executive privilege under constitutional separation of powers and
cited past tradition. Under pressure, Bush agreed to allow her to testify so long as it did not create a precedent of
presidential staff being required to appear before United States Congress when so requested. Her appearance before
the commission on April 8, 2004, was accepted by the Bush administration in part because she was not appearing
directly before Congress. She thus became the first sitting National Security Advisor to testify on matters of policy.
Rice was a proponent of the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
After the invasion, when it became clear that Iraq did not have nuclear WMD capability, critics called Rice's claims a
"hoax", "deception" and "demagogic scare tactic"
A Senate Intelligence Committee reported that on July 17, 2002, Rice met with CIA director George Tenet to
personally convey the Bush administration's approval of the proposed waterboarding of alleged Al Qaeda leader Abu
Zubaydah. "Days after Dr Rice gave Mr Tenet her approval, the Justice Department approved the use of
waterboarding in a top secret August 1 memo."
In 2003 Rice, Vice President Dick Cheney and Attorney General John Ashcroft met with the CIA again and were
briefed on the use of waterboarding and other methods including week-long sleep deprivation, forced nudity and the
use of stress positions. The Senate report says that the Bush administration officials "reaffirmed that the CIA program
was lawful and reflected administration policy"
The Senate report also "suggests Miss Rice played a more significant role than she acknowledged in written
testimony to the Senate Armed Services Committee submitted in the autumn." At that time, she had acknowledged
attending meetings to discuss the CIA interrogations, but she claimed that she could not recall the details
1.2005-1.2009 Foreign Minister
In 2004 and 2005, she was ranked as the most powerful woman in the world by Forbes magazine and number two in

„One time, Kissinger said that the German Foreign Minister Genscher had called on him to complain that the
Germans had been allocated a very inadequate herring quota off the coast of Maine. Kissinger said that he replied that
the quota was ridiculous and had told Genscher that the Germans could fish for all of the herring they wanted. The
secretary then asked who was in charge of such issues. I raised my hand. He then proceeded to make a fool out of me
at that staff meeting, which is one of the reasons why, when we later sent him the memorandum I described earlier,
we made sure that Larry shepherded it through.
Years later, at Bilderberg, West Germany, I gave a long briefing on U.S. Soviet relations at the request of Secretary
Shultz. I had to fly there from Moscow, where I had just attended a meeting with Gorbachev. The audience consisted
of all of the attendees at those famous conferences, including Kissinger. After the briefing, Kissinger took me aside
and asked me how it was that he had never met me during all of his time as secretary of state. I then told him that he
had humiliated me during a staff meeting and I promised myself then that I would never get near him again. He
blanched and that was the end of that conversation.“

1976-1995 Senator

Malcolm Rifkind UK politician 86 96 MSC 12-17


cousin of: Leon Brittan [BB 92, 98]
Rifkind was born in Edinburgh to a Jewish family that emigrated to Britain in the 1890s from Lithuania; among his
cousins are Leon and Samuel Brittan
Rifkind was one of only five Ministers (Tony Newton, Kenneth Clarke, Patrick Mayhew and Lynda Chalker are the
others) to serve throughout the whole 18 years of the Governments of Margaret Thatcher and John Major. This
represents the longest uninterrupted Ministerial service in Britain since Lord Palmerston in the early 19th century.

1974-1997 Member of Parliament


1983-1986 Minister of State for Europe
He assisted Sir Geoffrey Howe in persuading Thatcher to change the Government's policy on the
Soviet Union, attended the Chequers meeting which decided to invite Soviet leaders to the United
Kingdom, and was present at Chequers when Thatcher had her first meeting with Mikhail
Gorbachev and decided that he was a Soviet leader with whom "she could do business".
Rifkind also had strong links with the Solidarity movement in Poland. In 1984 he made a Ministerial
visit to Poland. Against the wishes of General Jaruzelski, the Polish Communist President, he
insisted on laying a wreath at the grave of the murdered Polish priest Father Jerzy Popiełuszko, and
had a meeting with three of the leaders of the banned Solidarity movement. Jaruzelski attacked
Rifkind and cancelled a meeting he was due to have with him but Rifkind's meeting with Solidarity
created a precedent that was followed by the West German Foreign Minister, Hans-Dietrich
Genscher and other Western ministers. This helped force the Polish Government to remove the ban
on Solidarity and acknowledge the need for political reform and pluralism.
Rifkind, as Minister responsible for the European Community, was appointed by the Prime Minister
as her personal representative on the Dooge Committee of the European Community. The Report of
the Committee helped prepare the way for the development of theSingle European Market.
1986-1990 Secretary of State for Scotland
As Secretary of State he initiated major reforms in Scotland. These included the privatisation of the
Scottish electricity industry and the Scottish Transport Group. He created Scottish Homes as the
Government's housing agency; and Scottish Natural Heritage which combined both the Countryside
Commission for Scotland and the Nature Conservancy Council. He also transformed the Scottish
Development Agency into Scottish Enterprise with much greater private sector involvement.
1990-1992 Transport Secretary
One of his main priorities as Transport Secretary was to take forward the policy proposals for the
privatisation of the railways. Rifkind supported privatisation but concluded that it would be a
mistake to separate ownership of the infrastructure from the operating companies as track costs were
a large percentage of their unavoidable costs. This view brought him into conflict with the Treasury
and meant that Conservative proposals for privatisation were not ready by the time of the 1992
general election. The Prime Minister favoured the Treasury argument that competition between
railway companies would be discouraged if one company owned the track. Rifkind maintained that
the competition to rail would come from air and road and not from other rail companies. After
Rifkind left the Ministry of Transport in 1992 the Treasury view prevailed and this led to the
creation of Railtrack.
1992-1995 Defence Secretary
he was a firm believer in strong defence and armed forces with a global capability. One of his early
decisions was to reverse the proposed disbandment of the Cheshire and Staffordshire Regiment and
the Royal Scots and Kings Own Scottish Borderers. In 1994 he was faced with Treasury demands
for major cuts in the Defence budget. In order to protect the fighting capability of the armed forces
he negotiated a settlement with the Treasury whereby he would deliver savings greater than they
were demanding but that he would be allowed to keep the additional savings and use them for the
purchase of new military equipment for each of the three Services.
With some of the additional savings that had been found Rifkind was able to secure the agreement
of the United States to British purchase ofcruise missiles. The United Kingdom was, at that time, the
only country to which the Americans were willing to sell cruise missiles.

1995-1997 Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs


One of his first duties was to chair the London Summit on Bosnia which put much greater pressure
on the Bosnian Serbs in the aftermath of the Srebrenica massacre and led, in due course, to the
Dayton Accord which ended the fighting. As Foreign Secretary, on 24 September 1996, Rifkind
addressed the United Nations General Assembly and called for a UN Declaration barring political
asylum for terrorists, arguing that they should not be able to benefit from the provisions of the 1951
UN Convention on Refugees to secure political asylum. In the same speech he emphasised Britain's
commitment to the goal of global free trade by 2020 and said all governments should liberalise their
economies and lift trading restrictions.
2010-2015 Chairman of the Intelligence and Security Committee
Rifkind has supported the NATO military intervention in Libya and supplying arms to the Libyan
rebels.
On 28 August 2013 Rifkind appeared to modify his anti-war principles by advocating British
military intervention in the Syrian civil war, subject to certain important caveats.
On 18 March 2014, during an interview with CBC Radio News, Rifkind spoke out against the
Russian annexation of Crimea from Ukraine, stating that this risked destabilising the entire area and
European politics in general.
In January 2015 he was appointed by the OSCE as a member of their Eminent Persons Panel on
European Security.

Pesenti erzählt im Oktober 1967 David Rockefeller vom Cercle. Im Mai 1968 nimmt dieser zum ersten Mal an einer
Sitzung in Rom teil. Damals zeichnete sich in den USA ein politischer Richtungswechsel ab, nachdem Nixon im
August 1968 sich als Präsidentschaftskandidat gegen Nelson Rockefeller durchsetzen konnte. September/Oktober
schickt dieser William Scranton nach Europa um die Lage zu sondieren. Strauß trifft sich mit ihm auf Empfehlung
Violets hin. Cercle macht sich danach grosse Hoffnungen im Zusammenhang mit einem allfälligen Sieg Nixons.
Violet reist für die Wahlen in die USA und vereinbart mit Rockefeller eine Sitzung in New York. Dieses findet am 6.
Dezember 1968 in Rockefeller Center statt (erstmals Cercle-Treffen in den USA). „leider“ ohne Strauß: Da Nixon ein
Treffen ablehnte, hielt es Strauß für problematisch sich geheim mit Rockefeller und Kissinger zu treffen. Er lud aber

1970 eine Studie über subversive Kräfte innerhalb der katholischen Kirche Lateinamerikas an Kissinger aus,
die dieser schliesslich an Nixon weiterleitete. Als Urheber dieses 64 Seiten starken Typoskripts wurde eine
geheime Gruppe von katholischen Laien mit dem Namen Sint Unum genannt.“ 466

Seit 1970 traf sich die Runde nun alljährlich Anfang Dezember in Washington (...) Wiederholt lud David
Rockefellers Bruder Nelson den ausgewählten Gesprächskreis bei dieser Gelegenheit zum Dinner und zum
abendlichen Beisammensein in sein Privathaus. Zu den gelegentlichen Teilnehmern dieser Sitzungen zählten auch
Kissinger und der Ständige Beobachter des Heiligen Stuhls bei den Vereinten Nationen, Alberto Giovanetti, mit
dem Violet seit seinen New Yorker Missionen zur diplomatischen Absicherung der französischen Nordafrika-Politik
bestens vertraut war. Neben den Treffen in Washington wurde jährlich mindestens eine weitere Zusammenkunft in
Europa organisiert, wobei Pesenti nun zunehmend die Rolle eines informellen Koordinators übernahm.“ 471

1988- ongoing Member, CFR
During President Jimmy Carter's administration, Ross worked under Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Paul
Wolfowitz [BB 12x 90-09] in the Pentagon. There he co-authored a study recommending greater U.S. intervention in
the Persian Gulf region.

During the Reagan administration, Ross served as director of Near East and South Asian affairs in the National
Security Council and Deputy Director of the Pentagon's Office of Net Assessment (1982–84)

In the mid-1980s Ross co-founded, with Martin Indyk, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC)-
sponsored Washington Institute for Near East Policy ("WINEP")
Although Ross had worked for outgoing Republican President Bush (even assisting in his re-election effort),
incoming Democratic Secretary of State Warren Christopher asked Ross to stay on for a short time to help with early
Middle Eastern policy in the new administration.

In the summer of 1993 President Bill Clinton named Ross Middle East envoy. He helped the Israelis and Palestinians
reach the 1995 Interim Agreement on the West Bank and the Gaza Strip and brokered the Protocol Concerning the
Redeployment in Hebron in 1997. He facilitated the Israel–Jordan peace treaty and also worked on talks between
Israel and Syria. Ross was criticized by people on both sides of the conflict. Former Palestinian Foreign Minister
Nabil Shaath described him as being more "pro-Israeli than the Israelis."
After leaving his position as envoy, Ross returned to the Washington Institute for Near East Policy as counselor and
Ziegler distinguished fellow. He became chair of the Jerusalem-based think tank, the Jewish People Policy Planning
Institute, funded and founded by the Jewish Agency in 2002.
During these years he taught classes at Marquette University, Brandeis University, Georgetown University and the
Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University
he signed two Project for a New American Century (PNAC) letters in support of the war in March 2003.

According to The Wall Street Journal, Ross, along with James Steinberg [BB 94, 2000, 2002-2003, 2006, 2009-2011]
and Daniel Kurtzer, were among the principal authors of presidential candidate Barack Obama's address on the
Middle East to AIPAC in June 2008.
app. 2008 Member, Trilateral Commission
Ross was appointed Special Advisor for the Persian Gulf and Southwest Asia to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on
February 23, 2009.
On June 25, 2009 the White House announced that Ross was leaving the State Department to join the National
Security Council staff as a Special Assistant to the President and Senior Director for the Central Region, with overall
responsibility for the region. The Central Region includes the Middle East, the Persian Gulf, Afghanistan, Pakistan
and South Asia
On November 10, 2011, Ross stepped down from his post in the Obama administration.
2011-2014 Director, Washington Institute for Near East Policy

Ross co-founded the advocacy group United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) with Ambassador Richard Holbrooke [BB
12x, 95-10], former CIA director R. James Woolsey Jr., and former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations for
Management and Reform Mark Wallace.

According to Mearsheimer/Walt, Ross is a member of the Israel Lobby.

In the late 1970s, Ross began his 24 year career at the New York City office of N M Rothschild & Sons, where he ran
the bankruptcy-restructuring advisory practice.
In the 1980s, Donald Trump was in financial trouble because of his casinos in Atlantic City. His three casinos in
Atlantic City were under foreclosure threat from lenders. Ross, who was then the Senior Managing Director of
Rothschild Inc., represented investors in the casino. Along with Carl Icahn, Ross convinced bondholders to strike a
deal with Trump that allowed Trump to keep control of the casinos
In the late 1990s, Ross started a $200 million fund at Rothschild to invest in distressed assets. As the U.S. bubble
began to burst, he decided he wanted to invest more and advise less. In 2000, the 62-year-old banker raised $450
million to buy out the fund from Rothschild and make further investments in distressed assets.
Since 2014, Ross has been the vice-chairman of the board of Bank of Cyprus PCL, the largest bank in Cyprus.
As of January 2012, Ross was the leader (or “Grand Swipe”) of the secret Wall Street fraternity, Kappa Beta Phi. He
served on the board of trustees of the Brookings Institution

Ruggie is widely considered to be one of his generation's most influential political

communities into the international relations field; adapted from Karl Polanyi the
term "embedded liberalism" to explain the post-World War II international
economic system among western capitalistic states; and was a major contributor to
the emergence of the constructivist approach to international relations theorizing,
which takes seriously the roles of norms, ideas, and identities, alongside other
factors in determining international outcomes. A survey in Foreign Policy
magazine has named him as one of the 25 most influential international relations
scholars in the United States and Canada.

In Rühes Amtszeit fiel die strategische Neuausrichtung der Bundeswehr sowie der NATO nach dem Ende des Ost-
West-Konflikts.
Auch an der Neuorientierung der NATO hatte Rühe entscheidenden Anteil, da er gemeinsam mit Helmut Kohl und
dem damaligen Bundesaußenminister Klaus Kinkel in jahrelangen Verhandlungen sowohl die zögernde US-Regierung
(Kabinett Clinton) als auch die europäischen NATO-Partner von der Notwendigkeit einer schnellen Ausweitung der
NATO nach Osten überzeugen konnte. <-- unbedingt Literatur dazu suchen

Jeffrey Sachs USA academia CFR 90


1981- ongoing Member, CFR
In 1989 Sachs advised Poland's anticommunist Solidarity movement and the government of Prime Minister Tadeusz
Mazowiecki. He wrote a comprehensive plan for the transition from central planning to a market economy, which
became incorporated into Poland's reform program led by Finance Minister Leszek Balcerowicz. Sachs was the main
architect of Poland's successful debt reduction operation. Sachs and IMF economist David Lipton advised the rapid
conversion of all property and assets from public to private ownership. Closure of many uncompetitive factories
ensued. In Poland, Sachs was firmly on the side of rapid transition to "normal" capitalism. At first he proposed U.S.-
style corporate structures, with professional managers answering to many shareholders and a large economic role for
stock markets. That did not fly with the Polish authorities, but he then proposed that large blocks of the shares of
privatized companies be placed in the hands of private banks. As a result, there were some economic shortages and
inflation, but prices in Poland eventually stabilized. The government of Poland awarded Sachs with one of its highest
honors in 1999, the Commander's Cross of the Order of Merit. He also received an honorary doctorate from the
Cracow University of Economics.

Since the adoption of the (MDGs) in 2000, Sachs has been the leading academic scholar and practitioner on the
MDGs.[citation needed] He chaired the WHO Commission on Macroeconomics and Health (2000–01), which played
a pivotal role in scaling up the financing of health care and disease control in the low-income countries to support
MDGs 4, 5, and 6. He worked with UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan in 2000–01 to design and launch The Global
Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. He worked closely with senior officials of the George W. Bush
administration to develop the PEPFAR program to fight HIV/AIDS, and the PMI to fight malaria. On behalf of
Annan, from 2002 to 2006 he chaired the UN Millennium Project, which was tasked with developing a concrete
action plan to achieve the MDGs.

Sachs has been a consistent critic of the International Monetary Fund and its policies around the world. He blasted
international bankers for what he claims is a pattern of ineffective investment strategies.

Chambers founded in 1971, along with 15 other journalists and media professionals the weekly Cambio 16. Under the
Franco dictatorship, the magazine focused on issues of "Economy and Society", and after Franco's death, became a
magazine of general information, which achieved great prominence during the Spanish Transition. The success of the
publication led him to found a general newspaper called Diario 16, which was released on 18 October 1976.
During 1980, the good sales of his two publications led him to form a media conglomerate. He created Grupo 16,

beriet
„Im Verlaufe der Abschlussdebatte führte der CSU-Spitzenpolitiker Strauß eine Art Filibuster durch, indem er allerlei
zeitraubende Einwände erhob. Er konnte jedoch nicht verhindern, dass der Ausschuss das Abkommen mit 19
Stimmen bei drei Enthaltungen guthiess. Der Weg war frei für die Verhandlunge im Plenum.“ Jelinek, 246
Zum ersten mal kam es zu einer öffentlichen Diskussion über die Zahl der jüdischen Opfer des Holocaust. (...)
Insgesamt stimmten 239 der anwesenden Mitglieder des Bundestags für das Abkommen und 35 dagegen, 86
Abgeordnete enthielten sich der Stimme.

1987 organisierte Stephan Schmidheiny als Ankeraktionär die Fusion von Brown, Boveri & Cie. mit ASEA aus
Schweden zur neu positionierten, erfolgreichen Firma ABB.
Er wurde Verwaltungsratsmitglied von führenden Unternehmen wie z. B. Asea Brown Boveri (ABB), Nestlé, Swatch

1990 erfolgte die Berufung zum «Hauptberater für Wirtschaft und Industrie» des Generalsekretärs der UN-Rio-Gipfel
1992 (UNCED). Stephan Schmidheiny bereitete in dieser Funktion massgeblich diese besser als «Rio Gipfel» von
1992 bekannte Konferenz der Vereinten Nationen vor. Um sein Mandat besser ausüben zu können, gründete er ein
Forum, in dem führende Unternehmer aus aller Welt eine betriebswirtschaftliche Perspektive auf die
Herausforderungen von Umwelt und Entwicklung förderten. Aus diesem Forum entstand später das World Business
Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) eine Organisation, der mittlerweile weltweit die 160 wichtigsten
Unternehmen angehören. Schmidheiny wurde zu deren Ehrenpräsidenten gewählt.

Er war als Wehrmachtsoffizier beteiligt an der Blockade von Leningrad, einer der schlimmsten Belagerung der
Geschichte, der 1,1 Millionen Zivilisten zum Opfer fielen. Dafür bekam er das eiserne Kreuz 2. Klasse.

als Militärexperte energisch eine atomare Bewaffnung der Bundeswehr ablehnte, also genau die Linie der Briten und
Amerikaner vertrat.

Gemeinsam mit dem französischen Staatspräsidenten Valéry Giscard d’Estaing, verbesserte Schmidt die deutsch-
französischen Beziehungen und verwirklichte entscheidende Schritte hin zur weiteren europäischen Integration. So
wurde kurz nach Schmidts Amtsübernahme der Europäische Rat etabliert, und auch die wirtschaftspolitisch
bedeutendste Maßnahme seiner Regierungszeit ergriff er in Zusammenarbeit mit Giscard: die Etablierung des
Weltwirtschaftsgipfels im Jahr 1975, der als informelle Zusammenkunft der Staats- und Regierungschefs der
bedeutendsten westlichen Demokratien geplant war, die Einführung des Europäischen Währungssystems und der
Europäischen Währungseinheit (ECU) zum 1. Januar 1979, aus denen später die Europäische Wirtschafts- und
Währungsunion und der Euro hervorgehen sollten. Auf eine Idee Schmidts und Giscards ging auch die Gründung der
Gruppe der 7 (G7) zurück.

Nach Rücktritt als Kanzler, verlor Schmidt in der SPD fast jede Unterstützung für seine Sicherheitspolitik: Auf dem
Kölner Parteitag der SPD vom 18. und 19. November 1983 stimmten von rund 400 Delegierten neben Schmidt nur 14
dem Seeheimer Kreis zugehörige Delegierte für den NATO-Doppelbeschluss

Helmut Schmidt war ein enger Freund des Bankiers, US-Offiziers und Gründers des deutsch-amerikanischen
Netzwerks Atlantik-Brücke, Eric M. Warburg. Außerdem verband ihn eine Freundschaft mit dem ehemaligen
Außenminister der Vereinigten Staaten, Henry Kissinger.
Paul Volcker, der weltweit überaus einflussreiche Direktor des American Council on Germany, langjähriges Mitglied
und ehemaliger Direktor des Council on Foreign Relations, Mitglied der Trilateralen Kommission und Vorsitzender
der US-Notenbank, gehörte seit über 40 Jahren zu seinen Vertrauten. Ebenso hielt Schmidt Kontakt zu John J.
McCloy, ehemals Präsident der Weltbank, Direktor des Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), Vorstandsvorsitzender
der Chase Manhattan Bank sowie Initiator des deutsch-amerikanischen Netzwerks Atlantik-Brücke.

called Fokker his "love baby". On January 22, 1996, after having subsidized the losses of Fokker with billions of
Deutsche Marks, Daimler-Benz decided to stop putting more money into Fokker, and the firm subsequently went
bankrupt.

«1972 hörte ich in St. Gallen einen Vortrag des Präsidenten des Club of Rome; das hat mich elektrisiert», sagt
Wolfgang Schürer.
„Gleichfalls eine Tradition begründet ungefähr zur selben Zeit ein Landsmann des Deutschen in St. Gallen. Er heisst
Wolfgang Schürer und initiiert 1969 das ebenfalls internationale St. Gallen Symposium. (...) Schürer beschreibt die
unterschiedlichen Ansätze beider Konferenzen wie folgt: 'Mit dem Weltwirtschaftsforum hat Klaus Schwab ein
innovatives und qualitativ hochstehendes Geschäftsmodell geschaffen. Bei der Gründung des von Studenten
organiserten St. Gallen Symposiums stand dagegen der Dialog der Generationen als Reaktion auf die
Studentenproteste der Sechziger Jahre im Vordergrund. Diese Gespräche bilden bis heute den Kern der Veranstaltung.'
(...) Beide Gründer sind einfallsreich, aber einander offenbar nicht ganz grün. Schwab kommt nie nach St. Gallen und
Schürer wird nur einmal nach Davos eingeladen.“ Jürgen Dunsch, Gastgeber der Mächtigen, 2016.

In 1997, Washingtonian magazine named Sheeran as one of Washington's 100 Most Powerful Women.
In 2011 Forbes named her the world's 30th most powerful woman.
On Tuesday June 20, 2017, UN Secretary General António Guterres [BB 90, 05] appointed Sheeran envoy to Haiti.
Sheeran's responsibilities in the new role will be wide-ranging, but her most immediate task as envoy is raising $400
million to fund the UN's "New Approach" to cholera in Haiti, the ambitious plan launched by former Secretary
General Ban Ki-Moon when he publicly apologized for the UN's role in Haiti's cholera epidemic in December 2016.
The apology came six years after soldiers from the UN's peacekeeping mission in Haiti, MINUSTAH, introduced the
disease by contaminating Haiti's Artibonite River, causing more than 10,000 deaths. Sheeran faces an uphill battle. As
of her appointment in June 2017, the UN had raised only raised $2.7 out of the promised $400 million from member
states. Sheeran faces opposition from key powers like the United States
Sheeran also served as the Foreign Affairs Sous-Sherpa on behalf of the President of the United States at the Group of
Eight (G8) Summit. She headed a host of high-level bilateral or multilateral economic dialogues with the European
Union, China, India, Japan, Iraq, Afghanistan, and many others.
She represented the United States at a wide variety of high-level bilateral and multilateral meetings, serving as
Alternative Governor for the World Bank; the Inter-American Development Bank; the African Development Bank;
the Asian Development Bank; and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. Congress also confirmed

was elected to the Bullingdon Club, a dining society that counted among its members former British Prime Minister,
David Cameron, former Chancellor George Osborne, and current Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson
1987-2006 British citizen
He received praise for his article published in January 1989, The coming crack-up of Communism, which proved
prophetic.
In 1990–91, he was the Sunday Telegraph's Warsaw correspondent. He was the author of the 'Interview of the Month'
program on Polish public TV, in which he interviewed Margaret Thatcher, Lech Walesa, Vaclav Klaus, Otto von
Habsburg, Henry Kissinger, Qian Qichen and others
He briefly served as deputy defence minister in the Jan Olszewski government in 1992, in which he helped launch the
Polish bid to join NATO.

He resigned on 5 February 2007, on the eve of Poland's engagement in the war in Afghanistan in protest against the
activities of the chief of military intelligence, Antoni Macierewicz
2007-2014 Foreign Minister
He joined the Civic Platform party and became a member of its national board in 2008
normalized relations with Russia, and helped to terminate the Russian embargo on Polish agricultural products
At the same time, he enhanced relations with Germany and France. Cooperation in the Weimar Triangle –Poland,
Germany, France - was particularly intense during his term of office
he turned the ministry into a global institution with 4500 employees and 100 foreign branches
At the height of the European sovereign debt crisis in November 2011 Sikorski delivered a speech in Berlin: "Poland
and the future of the European Union" in front of the German Council on Foreign Relations, the prestigious non-
profit organization composed of the German foreign policy elite. He warned that EU member states faced a choice
"between deeper economic integration or collapse of the Eurozone". Sikorski made an extraordinary appeal: I will
probably be the first Polish foreign minister in history to say so, but here it is: I fear German power less than I am
beginning to fear German inactivity.
According to many political commentators and journalists, this speech made a tremendous impact on German and
European politics

Sikorski was involved in the events of the winter 2014 Ukraine Euromaidan protests at the international level. He
signed on 21 February along with Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich and opposition leaders Vitaly Klitchko,
Arseniy Yatsenyuk, and Oleg Tyagnibok as well as the Foreign Ministers of Russia, France and Germany a
memorandum of understanding to promote peaceful changes in Ukrainian power.
Sikorski was the main architect, along with his Swedish counterpart and friend Carl Bildt, of the eastern policy of the
EU – which came to be called the Eastern Partnership
In June 2014, a magazine in Poland published redacted transcripts of an illegally-taped conversation between Sikorski
and the former Polish finance minister Jacek Rostowski. The recordings were believed to have been made in the
dining room of the Polish Business Council sometime between summer 2013 and spring 2014. Sikorski is heard
criticizing the British Prime Minister David Cameron for his handling of the EU's fiscal pact to appease Eurosceptics
in the Conservative Party.

On 6 November 2015 Sikorski was appointed a Senior Fellow at Harvard University's Center for European Studies

betraf insbesondere militärische Entscheidungen bezüglich des Jugoslawien-Konfliktes. Am 30. Januar 1999 übertrug
man ihm Alleinentscheidungsbefugnisse über alle weiteren militärischen Entscheidungen der Balkaneinsätze der
NATO. Der Befehl zum Beginn der Luftangriffe gegen jugoslawische Ziele wurde am 23. März 1999, ohne dass ein
UN-Mandat vorgelegen hatte, von Solana erteilt. Am 24. März begann der Krieg.

In April 2008, it was revealed that Solberg, as Minister of Local Government and Regional Development in 2004, had
[17]
rejected a request for asylum in Norway by the Israeli nuclear whistleblower Mordechai Vanunu. While the
Norwegian Directorate of Immigration had been prepared to grant Vanunu asylum, it was then decided that the
[18]
application could not be accepted because Vanunu's application had been made outside the borders of Norway. An
unclassified document revealed that Solberg and the government considered that extraditing Vanunu from Israel could
be seen as an action against Israel and thus unfitting to the Norwegian government's traditional position as a friend of
Israel and as a political player in the Middle East. Solberg rejected this criticism and defended her decision.

(Wiederbewaffnung) of the Federal Republic of Germany after World War II. As an important military adviser to the
government of Konrad Adenauer, he was instrumental in the creation of the Bundeswehr
According to an article in Der Spiegel, which cited documents released by the Bundesnachrichtendienst in 2014,

neuen Begleitgesetze, die nach dem Lissabon-Urteil überarbeitet werden mussten. Spethmanns Klagen zu diesem
Themenbereich blieben jedoch erfolglos.
Im Mai 2010 reichte Spethmann zusammen mit Joachim Starbatty, Wilhelm Hankel, Wilhelm Nölling und Karl
Albrecht Schachtschneider vor dem Bundesverfassungsgericht Klage gegen das Währungsunion-
Finanzstabilitätsgesetz ein, das die deutsche Beteiligung an den Krediten zur Überwindung der griechischen
Finanzkrise regelt. Nach ihrer Meinung verstößt das Gesetz gegen die Nichtbeistandsklausel im AEU-Vertrag und
gegen das deutsche Grundgesetz. Die Klage wurde am 7. September 2011 zurückgewiesen.
Im Frühjahr 2013 gehörte Spethmann zu den Hauptzeichnern bei der Gründung der Alternative für Deutschland.

Paul Stehlin FRA military/politician 73


En 1974 et 1975, il est au centre d'une controverse sur le renouvellement des flottes aériennes de combat de l' OTAN
en prenant ouvertement parti pour les appareils américains, le YF-17 de Northrop et le YF-16 de General Dynanics
contre le Mirage F1-E de Dassault. Désavoué, il démissionne de son poste de vice-président de l'Assemblée et il est
mis d'office à la retraite de l'Armée sur décision du ministre de la Défense, Jacques Soufflet.

Le vendredi 6 juin 1975, à Washington, une sous-commission du Sénat américain révèle que la société Northrop a
effectué des versements «douteux» à des parlementaires et anciens officiers de haut rang européens, dont Paul
Stehlin, qui était rétribué depuis 1964 au titre de «consultant». Le même jour à Paris vers 18h30, alors que vient
d'être diffusée l'information, Paul Stehlin est renversé en sortant de son bureau par un autobus avenue de l'Opéra1.
Victime d'un grave traumatisme crânien et d'une fracture du rocher, il meurt des suites de ses blessures le 22 juin à
l'hôpital Cochin. Son épouse repousse l'hypothèse du suicide. Aucune enquête n'a été diligentée.

After the coalition invasion of Iraq, he was appointed the Coalition Provisional Authority Deputy Governorate Co-

Iraq. His responsibilities included holding elections, resolving tribal disputes, and implementing development
projects. He faced growing unrest and an incipient civil war from his base in a Civil-Military Co-operation (CIMIC)
compound in Al Amarah, and in May 2004 was in command of his compound in Nasiriyah when it was besieged by
Sadrist militia.
While Stewart initially supported the Iraq War, the International Coalition's inability to achieve a more humane,

Former Lockheed lobbyist Ernest Hauser told Senate investigators that Minister of Defence Strauss and his party had
received at least $10 million for West Germany's purchase of 900 F-104G Starfighters in 1961, which later became
part of the Lockheed bribery scandals. The party and its leader denied the allegations, and Strauss filed a slander suit
against Hauser. As the allegations were not corroborated, the issue was dropped.
Strauss was forced to step down as defence minister in 1962 in the wake of the Spiegel scandal. Rudolf Augstein,
owner and editor-in-chief of the influential Der Spiegel magazine, published German defense information that
Strauss's department alleged was top secret. He was arrested on Strauss's request and was held for 103 days. On 19
November, the five FDP ministers of the cabinet resigned, demanding that Strauss be fired. This put Chancellor
Adenauer himself at risk. He found himself publicly accused of backing the suppression of a critical press with the
resources of the state. Strauss was forced to admit that he had lied to the parliament and was forced to resign. Strauss
himself was exonerated by the courts on the charge of acting against the constitution.

Sulzberger, a practicing Reform Jew, who stood against Zionism and a Jewish state of Israel on principle
an enthusiastic supporter of the American Council for Judaism, founded in June 1942 to oppose Zionism, giving it
prominent coverage in his newspaper. In a 1946 speech, Sulzberger claimed that Zionism was to blame for some of
the Jewish deaths in the Holocaust, and that the refugee crisis during the war had been “a manageable, social and
economic problem” until “the clamor for statehood introduced an insoluable [sic] political element” into the issue. “It
is my judgment that thousands dead might now be alive” if “the Zionists” had put “less emphasis on statehood”

he sometimes carried messages from one foreign leader to another; for U.S. President John F. Kennedy he conveyed a
note to Soviet premier Nikita Khrushchev in 1961. Of all the leaders he befriended, it is said that he was closest to
President Charles de Gaulle of France.
In a 1977 article for Rolling Stone, "THE CIA AND THE MEDIA," journalist Carl Bernstein included Sulzberger in a
group of columnists and commentators whose CIA relationships Bernstein characterized as going "far beyond those
normally maintained between reporters and their sources." He cited CIA files as referring to Sulzberger as what the
agency called "known assets." Bernstein quoted unnamed CIA officials as saying Sulzberger at one time published a
briefing paper the CIA provided him almost verbatim under his byline.

Margaret Thatcher UK w politician 75 prov 77


1970-1974 Secretary for Education and Science
Thatcher supported Lord Rothschild's 1971 proposal for market forces to affect government funding of research.
Although many scientists opposed the proposal, her research background probably made her sceptical of their claim
that outsiders should not interfere with funding.
1974 co-founder (w/ Keith Joseph & Margaret Thatcher), Centre for Policy Studies
11.2.1975-28.11.1990 Leader Conservative party
Thatcher began attending lunches regularly at the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA), a think tank founded by
Hayekian poultry magnate Antony Fisher; she had been visiting the IEA and reading its publications since the early
1960s.
Thatcher wanted to prevent the creation of a Scottish assembly.
1979-1990 Prime Minister
„The taboo not a single commentator has broached though is the shadowy 'advisory' role played throughout her
premiership by European banking fraternity's Labour peer Lord Victor Rothschild. He was revealed in the book the
Thatcher government tried to suppress, Peter Wright's Spycatcher, to be behind London's top secret service
appointments. In 1986 Rothschild penned 'Paying for Local Government' the policy paper that led to the notorious
Poll Tax that fell hardest on the poorest, and which brought Britons onto the streets of London in their hundreds of
thousands in 1990, riots echoing London's Poll Tax revolt of 1381.
And according to the then BBC Chairman Marmaduke Hussey, Lord Victor also initiated the sacking in 1987 of the
last independent-minded Director General of the BBC, a castration from which the corporation never quite
recovered.“ https://www.rt.com/op-edge/margaret-thatcher-man-shadows-929/

MSC 17-18 not CFR! 13 14 15 16 17
1967 born in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, son of Klaus Friedrich Thiel
1999 co-founder Paypal
When PayPal launched at a successful press conference in 1999, representatives
from Nokia and Deutsche Bank [both Bilderberg MNCs] sent $3 million in venture
funding to Thiel using PayPal on their PalmPilots.
2002 sold Paypal to Ebay for $1.5 bn
2002 established Clarium Capital hedge fund, rather unsuccessful
2003 founder Palantir
At first, Palantir's only backers were the Central Intelligence Agency's venture
capital arm In-Q-Tel, but the company steadily grew and in 2015 was valued at
$20 billion, with Thiel being the company's largest shareholder.
2003- ongoing (2018) Chairman, Palantir
2004 first outside investor in Facebook with $500 k
Managing partner, Founders Fund (venture capital fund with $2 billion in assets)
It was reported in January 2018 that Founders Fund had bought $15–20 million
worth of bitcoin in mid-2017, and the venture capital firm told investors that due to
the cryptocurrency's surge in the last year the holdings are worth hundreds of
millions of dollars.
co-founder and investment committee chair of Mithril Capital Management
co-founder and chairman of Valar Ventures
In September 2006, Thiel announced that he would donate $3.5 million to foster anti-aging research through the
Methuselah Mouse Prize foundation. As of February 2017, he has donated over $7 million to the foundation.
2007 Young Global Leader, World Economic Forum
2014 # 4 on Forbes Midas list, annual ranking of the best dealmakers in high-tech and
life
sciences venture capital
Thiel believes in the importance and desirability of a technological singularity.Thiel is one of the financial backers of
OpenAI, a non-profit company aimed at the safe development of artificial general intelligence
3.2015-11.2017 part-time partner, Y Combinator (cf. Sam Altman BB 16)
politicial differences: Thiel pro-Trump / Altman anti-Trump

„Die Liste der Thiel’schen Erfolge ist lang, an ihrem Anfang steht die Gründung Paypals. Er kassierte 55 Millionen
Dollar aus dem Verkauf des Internetbezahldienstes an Ebay. Im selben Jahr, da er Zuckerberg unter die Arme griff,
startete er Palantir Technologies: Deren Software hilft der Regierung, Kriminelle und Terroristen aufzuspüren. 30
Millionen Dollar investierte Thiel in die Firma, deren Marktwert heute bei 2,5 Milliarden Dollar liegt. Weitere
Beteiligungen hat er in der Risikokapitalgesellschaft Founders Fund gebündelt, die seit Jahren beträchtliche Gewinne
erzielt.“
„Im Oktober 2011 gründete er „Breakout Labs“, ein Förderprogramm für Forscher, die „radikalste Ideen verfolgen
und an den Grenzen von Wissenschaft und Technik rütteln“. In diesem Zusammenhang erscheint es nahezu logisch,
dass er auch in ein biotechnologisches Start-up investiert hat, das zunächst den Alterungsprozess und schlussendlich
auch den Tod überwinden will.
Auf der einen Seite akzeptiert der gebürtige Frankfurter keine Grenzen, andere sollen dagegen verschlossen bleiben:
Einer Anti-Einwanderungsorganisation soll der Einwanderersohn eine Million Dollar gespendet haben. Bekannte in
Silicon Valley hat es verdutzt.“

grandson of Henry Tiarks, partner, Schroders since 1871 and son of Frank Tiarks, partner, Schroders since 1902. Both
were prominent City figures, the latter a director of the Bank of England from 1912. In the Edwardian era, under the
thrusting leadership of Frank Tiarks and Baron Bruno Schroder, their firm became London's leading merchant bank.
Henry Tiarks jr. was regarded as one of the brightest young merchant bankers in the City of London and was invited
to become a director of the Midland Bank.
His pattern of life changed abruptly in the early 1930s. The German financial crisis of the summer of 1931 destroyed
much of Schroders' business and impoverished the partners. For Tiarks there was also the personal misfortune of a
disastrous first marriage. But in 1936 he married Joan Barry, a popular West End actress and the voice of the leading
lady in the first British talking-picture, who brought him great happiness and to whom he was devoted. Their
daughter, Henrietta, married the heir to the Duke of Bedford, a match of which Tiarks was very proud.
In 1965, with Schroders once again at the forefront of the merchant banks, he and Helmut Schroder retired
simultaneously.

1973- founding member, Trilateral Commission
1974-1976 president of the New York City Bar Association
1977-4.1980 Secretary of State
President Jimmy Carter initially wanted to nominate George Ball to become Secretary of State, but, fearing Ball was
too liberal to be confirmed, nominated Vance instead.
He worked closely with Israeli Ministers Moshe Dayan and Ezer Weizman to secure the Camp David Accords
in 1978.
Vance also pushed for closer ties to the Soviet Union, and clashed frequently with the more hawkish National
Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski.
As Brzezinski took control of the negotiations, Vance was marginalized and his influence began to wane. When
revolution erupted in Iran in late 1978, the two were divided on how to support the United States’ ally the Shah of
Iran. Vance argued in favor of reforms while Brzezinski urged him to crack down – the ‘iron fist’ approach. Unable to
receive a direct course of action from Carter, the mixed messages that the shah received from Vance and Brzezinski
contributed to his confusion and indecision as he fled Iran in January 1979 and his regime collapsed.
§ negotiated the SALT II agreement directly with Soviet Ambassador Anatoly Dobrynin, bypassing American
Ambassador Malcolm Toon, who then criticized the agreement.[9] In June 1978, President Carter and Soviet General
Secretary Leonid Brezhnev signed the treaty in Vienna's Hofburg Imperial Palace in front of the international press
but the Senate ultimately did not ratify it.
Vance resigned in protest of Operation Eagle Claw, the secret mission to rescue American hostages in Iran
In January 1993, as the United Nations Special Envoy to Bosnia, Vance and Lord David Owen, the EU representative,
began negotiating a peace plan for the ending the War in Bosnia. The plan was rejected, and Vance announced his
resignation as Special Envoy to the UN Secretary-General. He was replaced by Norwegian Foreign Minister Thorvald
Stoltenberg.
In 1995 he again acted as Special Envoy of the Secretary-General of the United Nations and signed the interim accord
as witness in the negotiations between the Republic of Macedonia and Greece.

Im März 2006 wurde bekannt, dass die im Besitz des ÖGB befindliche Bank BAWAG im Herbst des Jahres 2000
knapp vor der Insolvenz gestanden war. Zur Abwendung der möglichen Insolvenz übernahm Verzetnitsch namens des
ÖGB eine Haftung für die Verbindlichkeiten der Bank, indem er den sogenannten Streikfonds des ÖGB verpfändete.
Er tat dies gemeinsam mit ÖGB-Finanzchef Günter Weninger – gleichzeitig BAWAG-Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender –
ohne das Präsidium des ÖGB darüber in Kenntnis zu setzen. Da die Insolvenz abgewendet werden konnte, wurde die
Haftung niemals schlagend. Dem ÖGB erwuchsen allerdings erhebliche finanzielle Nachteile beim wenig später
erfolgten Rückkauf der BAWAG-Anteile des früheren Miteigentümers Bayerische Landesbank, da die BAWAG durch
die verschleierten Verluste zu hoch bewertet wurde. Infolge des Skandals trat Fritz Verzetnitsch am 27. März 2006
von allen seinen gewerkschaftlichen und politischen Funktionen zurück - und wurde am 30. April vom ÖGB fristlos
entlassen.

in 1979 the government appointed „an ad hoc committee chaired by Gerrit Wagner, the president of Royal Dutch

European Economy Since 1945, p. 397
GEP: „In the wake of the outrage caused by the revelations about the involvement of the US multinational ITT in the
attempted coup in Chile in October 1970, in July 1972 the UN Economic and Social Council passed a resolution
establishing the 'Group of Eminent Persons' (GEP), with the task of submitting 'recommendations for appropriate
international action' on the MCN issue. The GEP was composed of twenty members from different backgrounds (nine
were from government circles, six from academy and five from public or private enterprises), but none from the
international trade union movement. This provoked a reaction on the part of the ICFTU, which decided, together with
Christian-oriented World Confederation of Labour, to boycott the GEP's work. Therefore in the hearings held by the
group in late 1973 only two unionists were interviewed: Albertino Mazetti, of the communist World Federation of
Trade Unions, and Nathaniel Goldfinger of the American AFL/CIO (which had recently left the ICFTU).

In contrast, the employers were represented by an impressive array of prominent personalities, such as: Emilio
Collado [BB 61-78, 80], vice-president of Standard Oil of New Jersey and president of the OECD Business and
Industry Advisory Committee (BIAC); Ernest Woodroofe and Gerrit Klijnstra, chairmen of Unilever; Jacques

Marc Wallenberg jr. SWE industry/finance 58


1958-1971 CEO, Enskilda Bank
selbstmord 1971:
On Thursday, 18 November 1971, the family bank held an ordinary board meeting. In the morning, Wallenberg had
taken a flight from Värnamo, where he had participated in a corporate debate the day before. He had at this debate
been asked about why the Wallenberg Group started a construction of a new pulp mill in Hyltebruk, although it has
not yet been authorized. His answer to the question had been rashly. He had responded that he would rather be
prosecuted for environmental crime than being forced to pay damages to a mass buyer for breach of contract. The
statement was big news in the press and he was also criticized by his father at the board meeting. In the evening, he
left from a reception at the Italian Embassy and he did not come home for the night. The next day his car was found
at Lake Orlången in Huddinge. Jacob Palmstierna and Peder Bonde, both vice CEO's of SEB, arrived at the site at 12
o'clock and were the first to see Wallenberg's dead body close to his car and could confirm his identity. Wallenberg
had taken his own life using a hunting rifle.
What impact stress with the bank merger had for his suicide can not be determined. His workload was great and the
expectations and pressure on him were no less. Marcus Wallenberg considered that his son's prolonged cold and
medication with sulfa drugs might have been fatal. Another reason is thought to be depression. Although it is likely
that Wallenberg died on 18 November, the official death day was set to 19 November 1971, the day when he was
found dead. The day the family chose to indicate on his tombstone is, however, 18 November. The 19 November, is
dynasty founder André Oscar Wallenberg's birthday, an important day for the family, which has always been
celebrated.
At the time of his death in 1971, Wallenberg was on the boards of 67 companies.

In 1996, along with a small group of friends, including the German chancellor, Helmut Kohl, he created the Club of
Three, designed to promote unofficial confidential exchanges between decision-makers and opinion-formers in Great
Britain, France and Germany. The annual plenary meetings proved so successful that the club began to organise
special sessions on issues such as defence, intelligence and demography.
After 9/11, Weidenfeld applied a similar format to his Ameurus project, setting up conferences covering both politics
and the arts with participants from US, Russia and a wide spectrum of European countries.
Governor, Weizmann Institute
Vice-Chairman, EU-Israel Forum
In January 2006 the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, founded as The Club of Three in the 1990s, was established with
Weidenfeld as its President.

Following on from his friendship with Kohl, he befriended Angela Merkel well before she came to political
prominence, and when she became chancellor, Weidenfeld became a trusted counsellor. Merkel took a close interest
in the Weidenfeld Institute, especially in its work on Islam and on the new frontiers of Europe.
He became more prominent in Germany after developing a close association with the Springer press – above all with
its chief executive, Mathias Döpfner. He was a household name in Germany as a regular columnist in two of the
Springer newspapers, Die Welt and Welt am Sonntag.
Weidenfeld also maintained strong links to Israel, whose security remained a paramount preoccupation.
He strongly supported intervention in Iraq. Later he urged military intervention in Syria.

In November 2010, Westerwelle became the first German minister to visit Gaza since the territory was sealed off by
the Israeli army at the end of 2007.
In late November 2010, leaked U.S. diplomatic cables revealed that American diplomats considered
Westerwelle an obstacle to deeper transatlantic relations and were sceptical of his abilities.
On 3 December 2010, Westerwelle dismissed his personal assistant Helmut Metzner following a Wikileaks diplomatic
cables release which led to Metzner admitting that he regularly spied for the U.S.
In April 2011, Westerwelle summoned China's ambassador to Germany, Wu Hongbo, for a meeting about detained
Chinese artist-activist Ai Weiwei, calling for his release and denouncing China's growing use of extrajudicial
detentions against dissidents.
During July 2011, Westerwelle was the President of the United Nations Security Council as he headed the
German delegation to the United Nations.
In an attempt to continue to play an important role within the United Nations, he led the German government’s
successful campaign for a three-year seat on the United Nations Human Rights Council in late 2012.
In October 2013, Israeli daily Haaretz published the text of a letter sent by Westerwelle to Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu, saying that failure to appear at a periodical hearing regarding human rights at the United Nations Human
Rights Council would cause severe diplomatic damage to Israel, and that its allies around the world would be hard-
pressed to help it. Shortly after, Israel renewed its cooperation with the Human Rights Council after a year and a half
of boycott.
Westerwelle died of acute myeloid leukemia on 18 March 2016, at the age of 54.

After the 1991 Persian Gulf War, Wolfowitz and his then-assistant Scooter Libby wrote the "Defense Planning
Guidance of 1992", which came to be known as the Wolfowitz Doctrine, to "set the nation’s direction for the next
century." As military strategist Andrew Bacevich described the doctrine:
Before this classified document was fully vetted by the White House, it was leaked to The New York Times, which
made it front-page news. The draft DPG announced that it had become the "first objective" of U.S. policy "to prevent
the re-emergence of a new rival." With an eye toward "deterring potential competitors from even aspiring to a larger
regional or global role," the United States would maintain unquestioned military superiority and, if necessary, employ
force unilaterally. As window dressing, allies might be nice, but the United States no longer considered them
necessary.
At that time the official administration line was "containment", and the contents of Wolfowitz’s plan calling for
"preemption" and "unilateralism" which was opposed by Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Colin Powell and
President Bush. Defense Secretary Cheney produced a revised plan released in 1992. Many of the ideas in the
Wolfowitz Doctrine later became part of the Bush Doctrine.
Wolfowitz was associated with the Project for the New American Century (PNAC); he signed both the PNAC's
June 3, 1997 "Statement of Principles", and its January 26, 1998, open letter to President Bill Clinton.
Quote: “The truth is that for reasons that have a lot to do with the U.S. government bureaucracy, we settled on the one
issue that everyone could agree on which was weapons of mass destruction as the core reason [for going to war].”
[USA Today, 5/30/03]

In February 2015, Wolfowitz advised presidential candidate Jeb Bush.

Grigory Yavlinsky RUS politician 04


Yavlinsky's commitment to a market economy was established when in 1990 he wrote "500 Days" – a program for
the Soviet Union promising rapid transition from centrally planned economy to a free market in less than 2 years. To
implement the program, Yavlinsky was appointed Deputy Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR and
Deputy Chairman of the State Commission for Economic Reform.
In the summer of 1991, during his stay in Harvard, he co-authored a new reform program, jointly with Graham
Allison [BB 70, 71, 74, 07], that offered a platform for Gorbachev's negotiations with the "G-7" over financial aid in
support of transition to the market After the defeat of the hardline August 1991 coup against Gorbachev and
Yeltsin, he was appointed Deputy Chairman of the Committee on Management of National Economy that acted
in place of Soviet government.
With the launching of the 'shock therapy' reforms by Yeltsin and Gaidar in January 1992, Yavlinsky became an
outspoken critic of these policies, emphasizing differences between his and Gaidar's reforms program (such as the
sequencing of privatization vs. liberalization of prices and the applicability of his program to the entire Soviet
Union).
Under the Putin presidency, Yavlinsky remained an active opponent of military solution to the problems in Chechnya.
In 2002, he took part in the unsuccessful negotiations during the Moscow theater hostage crisis and was praised by
President Vladimir Putin for his role in the standoff.
he developed close relations with Mikhail Khodorkovsky, an oligarch who positioned himself as an autonomous
economic and political player vis-a-vis the Kremlin. A number of Khodorkovsky's associates became Duma members
on the Yabloko slate
Yavlinsky had difficult relations with the authorities both under Yeltsin and under Putin
In the 2003 elections to the Duma, Yabloko failed to cross the 5% threshold of Duma representation. Both vote-
rigging and Yabloko's declining support may have been the primary factor.
Yavlinsky refused to run for president in 2004, claiming that Putin had rigged elections to the point of making them
meaningless.
Yavlinsky remains a prominent critic of Putin and of Russia's leading United Russia Party. In a 12 January 2004
interview,[21] he is quoted as saying:
We don't have an independent parliament any more. For the first time since the dissolution of the Soviet
Union we again have a one-party parliament. There are no independent mass media of any significance
any more. There is no public control over secret services and the law enforcement agencies, there is no
independent legislature. The authorities considerably influence the elections. All elements of society are
concentrated in the same hands which resemble the 1930s. This is a semi-Soviet system.

In an interview at HSE's conference Yavlinsky stated that common disease for all states in the late 20th early 21st
century is states' merger with the business. Largely that's what resulted in economic crisis in the US. A fusion of Wall
Street and White House paralyzed all possibilities of Barack Obama other than to inject fresh money in the old
economy. Which doesn't have any prospect because of the level of public debt and poor quality of the state in
decision making.
In his opinion, the way to resolve the crisis was to bankrupt all the financiers and bankers who led to it. But
since there was too many of them, and in many respects the economy is dependent on them, it might lead to
greater social problems. In addition, they are very much integrated into the US power elites. Therefore, and
because of fears of social unrest, the US government saved them by giving them tax payers' money, helping
those who were actually responsible for creating the crisis. Doing it, officials hoped that the economy would work
and would start to grow after receiving a huge infusion. But despite Bush's administration 750 billion and Obama's
800 billion dollars investments nothing changed, economic activity wasn't growing because of markets' distrust.

In his 2006 book State of Denial, Washington Post journalist Bob Woodward described a 29 November 2001, meeting
of Middle East analysts, including Zakaria, that was convened at the request of the then Deputy Secretary of Defense
Paul Wolfowitz [BB 12x 90-09]. According to a New York Times story on Woodward's book, the Wolfowitz meeting
ultimately produced a report for President George W. Bush that supported the subsequent invasion of Iraq. Zakaria,
however, later told The New York Times that he had briefly attended what he thought was "a brainstorming
session".He was not told that a report would be prepared for the President, and in fact, the report did not have his
name on it. The Times issued a correction.

2001- member, President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board
executive director of the 9/11 Commission, whose work included examination of the conduct of presidents Clinton
and George W. Bush and their administrations. Zelikow's prior involvement with the administration of George W.
Bush led to opposition from the 9/11 Family Steering Committee, citing the obvious conflict of interest of having
previously worked on the Bush transition team. The Commission's Republican chair and Democratic vice—chair
strongly defended Zelikow, both at the time and later.
After being informed of the Department of Defense's Able Danger project by U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel Anthony
Shaffer, he failed to have the 9/11 Commission investigate, despite the promise that the Commission would
investigate all 9/11 related topics. Able Danger was not included in the Commission's final report.

Zelikow's role in the second Iraq war is discussed at some length in Bob Woodward's State of Denial, which presents
him as an internal critic of the way the war was being conducted in 2005 and 2006, and as an originator of the
alternative approach termed "clear, hold, and build." He is also named by sources such as Jack Goldsmith's The Terror
Presidency as an internal critic of the treatment of terrorist captives, and there was wide attention given to an address
he made on this subject after leaving office in April 2007.
