The International Crisis Group launched today in New York its new $50 million Securing the Future Capital fundraising campaign, with commitments totaling $20 million from MacArthur, George Soros, Frank Giustra, and Victor Pinchuk. MacArthur’s $5 million grant is one of a very small number of large institutional grants awarded each year by the Foundation to organizations that conduct work central to the Foundation’s mission and that are at a stage of institutional development where a substantial one-time investment would be particularly timely.>
... Pinchuk's company was in terrible shape after it had been bailed out in 2013. He owed a lot of money and the IMF was supposed to come after him for not paying up.
Money Laundering and Blackmail?
. Interestingly, IMF official Jerome Vacher partied with Pinchuk at the Ukrainian oligarchs private yacht.
Instead of making the oligarchs Pinchuk and Kolomoisky pay their creditors the IMF helps them money launder $1.8 Billion in IMF funds to Kolomoisky and Pinchuk's personal banks.
Look into the International Crisis Group members. One of them is Wadah Khanfar. He used to run al-Jazeera. Before that, he was a recruiter for the Muslim Brotherhood. How many of the other Crisis Group members did he recruit?
The GMBDW has also reported since 2007 on the Muslim Brotherhood and/or Hamas background of two of the ICG Trustees which may help to explain the ICG position on the Brotherhood. Palestinian-born Wadah Khanfar is a current member of the ICG board. We have long reported on the Muslim Brotherhood/Hamas ties of Waddah Khanfar now head of the Huffington Post, Arabic Edition. >
Another former board member of the ICG is former Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim who has many ties to the global Muslim Brotherhood including helping to found the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT) where he currently serves as a director, representing Asian youth and serving as a trustee for the World Assembly of Muslim Youth (WAMY) during the 1970’s and early 1980’s, and appearances at numerous Brotherhood-linked conferences. His ICG bio omitted this background. http://archive.is/ixMTj
and for my purposes of late, I only need the first line (((this)))
Founded in 1928 by the Egyptian schoolteacher/activist Hasan al-Banna (a devout admirer of Adolf Hitler and the Nazis)
and a quoted excerpt from a recent post of mine, in a nutshell
(((this)))
Even as the United States was publicly proclaiming a policy of unconditional German surrender, Gehlen’s incredible conditions were met and his organization was being established at the very core and seat of the American system of foreign intelligence under the responsibility of Allen Dulles’s Secret Intelligence Branch of the OSS.
By the time of the transformation of the OSS into the CIA in 1948, Gehlen had grown tight with Dulles and his organization had become in effect the CIA’s department of Russian and East European affairs. Soon after the formation of NATO, it became the official NATO intelligence organization. And as per Gehlen’s third condition, his organization was installed as the core and he as the director of the West German CIA, the Bundesnachtendienst (BND).
...The Gehlen-Vlassov intelligence system had become a main source and fountain of official American consciousness.
...Exclusive purveyor of intelligence on the Soviet Union and East Europe to the United States, West Germany, and NATO, Gehlen and the spirit kept alive in him and his staff had more power over the official American perceptions in the postwar than even a German victory could have given them. ....
Behold the span of this concatenation. First in the time of Trotsky there is General Vlassov and his anti-Bolshevist army and spy ring. The Vlassove apparatus is then at a certain later point assimilated to the Gehlen apparatus. Then just as the White Russian spies jumped to the Nazis when their own army went down, so now the German Nazi and Russian Czarist spies together jumped to the American army as the Wehrmacht was falling. Vlassov first became a department of Gehlen, then Gehlen became a department of Allen Dulles.
Here's one member (of many) I have on hand. There are a large number members connected to Frank Guistra.
Administrator to the Executive Board, UNDP, United Nations Development Programme
Mark Malloch-Brown, Acting Chairman The Children's Investment Fund The Clinton Foundation lists CIFF among 7 organisations from which it received more than US$25 million.[16]
George Mark Malloch Brown, Baron Malloch-Brown KCMG PC (born 16 September 1953) is a former UK government minister (2007 – 2009) and United Nations Deputy Secretary-General (2006), as well as development specialist at the World Bank and United Nations (1994 – 2005), and a communications consultant and journalist. He was Minister of State in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office of the British government with responsibility for Africa, Asia and the United Nations (June 2007 - July 2009). Following his appointment to government, Malloch Brown was created a life peer on 9 July 2007 as Baron Malloch-Brown, of St Leonard's Forest in the County of West Sussex[1] (his title is hyphenated but his surname is not). Malloch Brown was previously at the World Bank (1994–1999), the Administrator of the United Nations Development Programme (1999–2005) and briefly United Nations Deputy Secretary-General (April to December 2006). He had previously worked at the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (1979–1983). He is also a former journalist for The Economist, development specialist, and communications consultant. He has served as Chair of the Royal African Society,[2] among other non-governmental and private sector roles, such as membership of the Executive Committee of the International Crisis Group.
Transcribed below is the Statement of Support for the ICPD Programme, to which almost 200 influential government, development, foundation, business and religious leaders, international and youth organisations, scientists and nobel laureates - including Professor Dr. Jerome Karle of the WIF - have put their name. Also included is an accompanying memo which demonstrates very clearly the importance of the ICPD Programme of Action.
In.1994, at the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) in Cairo, Egypt, the world's governments and civil society committed to an action plan to ensure universal access to reproductive health information and services, uphold fundamental human rights including sexual and reproductive rights, alleviate poverty; secure gender equality; and protect the environment.
Since 1994, both the public and private sectors have made substantial efforts to transform the ICPD's 20-year-plan into reality. Meaningful gains have been made, but much remains to be done. The largest generation of adolescents in history - more than one billion young people - are now entering adulthood in a rapidly changing world. The exponential increases in HIV/AIDS, persistently high levels of death and ill health due to preventable complications from pregnancy and childbirth, inadequate access to family planning services, and weak public health systems are still major challenges.
We are deeply concerned that the gap between rich and poor is growing and that millions of the world's people, but especially women and young people, are highly vulnerable to HIV/AIDS, sexual coercion and violence, discrimination, and other violations of their human rights.
We call on leaders in every walk of life to join us in reaffirming the ICPD's vision for human development, social justice, economic progress and environmental preservation. We call on the international community, national governments and private philanthropic organizations, to prioritize and fund the ICPD Programme of Action. By signing this leadership statement, we pledge to do our part.

Harvard shut down the scandal-ridden Institute in January 2000, but not soon enough to avoid a Justice Department lawsuit charging Institute personnel with fraudulent misuse of USAID funds. Harvard settled the case out of court for $26 million—a mere wrist slap considering the damage the Institute had done to the Russian economy and to US-Russian relations.74
Rep. Jim Leach, head of the House Banking Committee, announced on 1 September 1999 that the Russia scandal could prove to be “one of the greatest social robberies in human history.” Based on preliminary inquiries, Leach declared that he was “very confident” that at least $100 billion had been laundered out of Russia, an unknown portion of which may have been diverted from the International Monetary Fund and other foreign aid loans.76
She told the committee that the Clintons had set up an “international patronage machine.” Clintonites in the guise of “consultants” to the Russian government requested and received loans, virtually at will, through such international lending agencies as the IMF, the World Bank, the US Agency for International Development, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation and the Export-Import Bank.
“This left the FBI no choice but to rely upon a third party for information. These actions caused significant delays and inhibited the FBI from addressing the intrusion earlier,” the official continued.
Comey’s statement about a “highly respected private company” gaining access to the DNC servers was a reference to CrowdStrike, the third-party company ultimately relied upon by the FBI to make its assessment about alleged Russian hacking into the DNC.
As this reporter documented, CrowdStrike was financed to the tune of $100 million from a funding drive by Google Capital.
Google Capital, which now goes by the name of CapitalG, is an arm of Alphabet Inc., Google’s parent company. Eric Schmidt, the chairman of Alphabet, has been a staunch and active supporter of Hillary Clinton and is a longtime donor to the Democratic Party.
CrowdStrike is a California-based cybersecurity technology company co-founded by experts George Kurtz and Dmitri Alperovitch.
Interestingly, Crowdstrike’s CTO and co-founder, Dmitri Alperovitch, is a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council, a think tank with openly anti-Russian sentiments that is funded by Ukrainian billionaire Victor Pinchuk, who also happened to donate at least $10 million to the Clinton Foundation.
Furthermore, in 2013, the Atlantic Council awarded Hillary Clinton it’s Distinguished International Leadership Award, and in 2014, the Atlantic Council hosted one of several events with former Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk, who took over after pro-Russian President Viktor Yanukovych was ousted in early 2014, and who now lives in exile in Russia.
Alperovitch is a nonresident senior fellow of the Cyber Statecraft Initiative at the Atlantic Council. The Council takes a hawkish approach toward Russia and has released numerous reports and briefs about Russian aggression.
In 2000, Deripaska's Sibirsky Aluminium and Roman Abramovich's Millhouse Capital created a partnership to manage the aluminium and alumina assets they controlled, and founded RUSAL.[31]
Rusal
Through its affiliate Salamon, it took over the bauxite mine in Niksic. It should be mentioned that Rusal and Glenkor often act together. The Austrian company Strabag, in which Oleg Deripaska has a large part, has bought over the Crnagoraput company.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oleg_Deripaska
some excerpts... a lot of info in the wiki on a variety of business relationships
The paragraphs are from different parts of the wiki
Oleg Vladimirovich Deripaska (Russian: Оле́г Влади́мирович Дерипа́ска; born January 2, 1968)[3] is a Russian oligarch, aluminium magnate and philanthropist.[1] He is the founder and owner of one of the largest Russian industrial groups Basic Element. He has been the president of En+ Group and United Company Rusal, the second largest aluminium company in the world,[4] until 2018.[5]
After graduating from Moscow State University with a degree in physics, Deripaska became a metals broker specialized in trading aluminium before expanding into energy, machinery, financial services and agribusiness. In 2000, Deripaska founded Rusal, the result of a partnership between Sibirsky Aluminium and Roman Abramovich's Millhouse Capital.[6] In 2007, Rusal merged with SUAL Group and Glencore International AG to form UC Rusal, with Deripaska as chairman.[7]
He was once Russia's richest man, worth $28 billion, but nearly lost everything due to mounting debts amid the 2007–08 financial crisis. As of May 2017, his wealth was estimated by Forbes at $5.2 billion.[8] Deripaska is also known for his close ties to Russian president Vladimir Putin, as well as his connection to American political consultant Paul Manafort, whom Deripaska employed from at least 2005 to 2009.[9]
Deripaska is also the founder of Volnoe Delo, Russia's largest charitable foundation, and is reported to have donated more than $250 million to mostly educational causes. He is married to Polina Yumasheva, step-granddaughter of former Russian President Boris Yeltsin and daughter of Valentin Yumashev, Yeltsin's son-in-law and close advisor.
Deripaska was also granted Cypriot citizenship in 2017.[1]
RUSAL went on to become the largest aluminium producer in the world, until the China Hongqiao Group surpassed it in 2015. In 2010, under Deripaska's leadership, Rusal became the first Russian company to be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.[13]
Deripaska is a friend of Nathaniel Rothschild, a major investor in both Glencore and United Company RUSAL. Together Deripaska and Rothschild hosted George Osborne and Peter Mandelson on Deripaska's yacht in Corfu in the summer of 2008.[86] Osborne was then Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer of the United Kingdom and a friend of Rothschild from school and university. It was reported that Peter Mandelson have maintained private contacts over several years with Oleg Deripaska[87]
On 22 March 2017, the Associated Press published a report alleging that Paul Manafort, Donald Trump's former presidential campaign manager, negotiated a $10 million annual contract with Deripaska to promote Russian interests in politics, business, and media coverage in Europe and the United States, starting in 2005.[94] Both Deripaska and Manafort have confirmed to have worked together in the past,[95] but rejected the contents of the AP story.
Deripaska is one of the 16 global business leaders who drafted CEO Climate Policy Recommendations to G8 Leaders, a document outlining the international business community's proposals to tackle global warming. The proposals were signed by more than 100 of the world's leading corporations and handed to the Prime Minister of Japan Yasuo Fukuda on 20 June 2008. The G8 leaders discussed the recommendations during the summit in Japan on 7–9 July 2008. The process was coordinated by the World Economic Forum in collaboration with the World Business Council for Sustainable Development.[120]
