German Marshall Fund https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Marshall_Fund

The German Marshall Fund of the United States (GMF) is a nonpartisan American public policy think tank and grantmaking institution dedicated to promoting cooperation and understanding between North America and Europe.

Founded in 1972 through a gift from the West German government on the 25th anniversary of the Marshall Plan, GMF contributes research and analysis on transatlantic and global issues; convenes policy and business leaders at international conferences; provides exchange opportunities for emerging American and European leaders; and supports initiatives to strengthen democracies.[1] GMF focuses on policy, leadership, and civil society

The president of GMF is Karen Donfried, who joined in April 2014. Donfried was previously special assistant to President Barack Obama. Past presidents of GMF include Benjamin H. Read (1973–1977), Robert Gerald Livingston (1977–1981), Frank E. Loy (1981–1995), and Craig Kennedy (1996–2014)

GMF was founded as a permanent memorial to Marshall Plan assistance through a grant from the West German government. It was founded by Guido Goldman, who was the director of Harvard's West European Studies program in the early 1970s. Goldman, an American whose family had fled Germany in 1940, lobbied the West German government, particularly Finance Minister Alex Möller for an endowment to promote European and U.S. relations on the 25th anniversary of Marshall Plan aid.[4] Working with a planning group that was to constitute the Fund's initial Board of Trustees - including physicist Harvey Brooks, diplomat Robert Ellsworth, journalist Max Franke, economist Richard N. Cooper, and educator Howard Swearer - Goldman eventually received an agreement to support an independent institution in 1971

Other charter members of the Board of Trustees included economist Carl Kaysen, judge Arlin M. Adams, and businessman Donald M. Kendall. The first president, selected in 1973, was Benjamin H. Read, who was later to become U.S. Under Secretary of State for Management

After the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, GMF was among the first U.S. organizations to establish a presence in what had been East Berlin, in 1990. It moved its Bonn operations to Berlin in 1992. In 2006, GMF acquired its current headquarters in Washington, DC, a building that until 1963 had housed the West German chancery, and that had hosted such figures as John F. Kennedy, Konrad Adenauer, Lyndon B. Johnson, and George C. Marshall. German Chancellor Angela Merkel dedicated the new building.

Speakers at GMF events have included John Kerry, Robert Gates, Madeleine Albright, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Catherine Ashton, Condoleezza Rice, Wolfgang Schauble, Gordon Brown, and Zbigniew Brzezinski, among many other European and U.S. heads of state and government, cabinet ministers, and legislators.

Stockholm China Forum is a bi-annual, trilateral conversation between European, U.S. and Chinese officials, academics, business leaders and other influencers. The forum has run since 2007, when it was established to create an informal, off-the-record space to foster transatlantic cooperation on China policy, and trilateral cooperation on areas of agreement and mutual interest.

https://pinkindustry.wordpress.com/hubertus-hoffmann/

President and Founder of the World Security Network Foundation (WSN) Hubertus Hoffmann likes to think of himself as not just a rich entrepreneur, but a ‘geostrategist.’ He has a plan for running the world which he outlines in The Globalization of Foreign Policy which draws on the artistic elements of Otto von Bismarck, the first German Chancellor..

..Hoffmann’s plan argues we need “a new global elite of maybe only 500,000 young talents”. This “new elite in the Western world needs spiritual orientation” and:

Good examples of such organizations are the Young Presidents Organization YPO with 10,000 young entrepreneurs worldwide combining all cultures of this world, or bilateral organizations such as the American Council on Germany or the International Crisis Group...

So a kind of internet chat room with some old German spook at it head is the answer, but of course we will need an advisory board and Hoffmann has already sent out the emails and assembled

ten generals and admirals (Luigi Caligaris, Klaus Naumann, Peter Regli, Klaus Reinhardt, Ed Rowny, Bill Odom, Götz Gliemeroth, Lord Peter Inge, Sebastian Roberts, Chuck Saffell), journalists (Herbert Kremp, Jens Krüger, Thomas Lipscomb, Henning von Steuben) , professors and scholars (Mensur Akgün; Ron Asmus; Rod Beckstrom, J.D. Bindenagel, Robert Dujaric; Peter Forster, Ortwin Gebauer, Amin Hashwani, Christian Hacke, Robert Hunter, Michael Inacker, Joachim Krause, Ludger Kühnhardt, Holger Mey, Mark Minevich, Mike Munson, John Nomikos, Ivo Paparela, Andreas Pruefert, Arben Qirezi, Sergey Rogov) and politicians (Samy Gemayel, Geza Jeszenszky; Tunne Kelam, Joe Schmitz, Peter Kurt Würzbach) advises WSN.

And Hoffmann has 115 ‘media partners’ (also examined below). Oddly enough the manifesto comes courtesy of the International Analyst Network part of the ‘Intelligence Summit’ gang which is the subject of another page on this site, who are up to much the same thing as Hoffmann — which is what precisely?

Hoffmann’s biography at the WSN states he has worked as adviser in the European Parliament to Hans-Gert Poettering, now the President of the European Parliament who is involved in EU enlargement towards the countries of central Europe (and slightly obsessed with religion); and in the German Bundestag with the Secretary of Defense, Peter Kurt Wuerzbach MP and with the U.S. Senate (Sam Nunn and Gary Hart) in ‘defense affairs for many years’. So an American agent then, probably fronting for Lockheed Martin and so on would be the initial surmise.

Since 1999 Nunn (Chevron Corporation, Coca-Cola, Dell and General Electric Company) served as Chairman of the Board of Trustees for the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) and Hoffmann was a Research Fellow at CSIS, Georgetown University from 1983-84. Aside from this connection there seems not much more information provided on exactly what Hoffmann did here.

Nunn’s wife , Colleen, worked as a spy for the Central Intelligence Agency with which CSIS is closely linked. Nunn is also a member of the Atlantic Partnership which ‘drip feeds’ Atlanticist propaganda into the media to serve the busness interests of its members who include Michael Howard and Lord Powell of Bayswater. Nunn was (a dissenting) part of the committee which decided to expand NATO in 1998 — George Kennan, the American diplomat and historian once said that: ”expanding NATO would be the most fateful error of American policy in the entire post-cold-war era.” Heavily involved in the cold war himself, Nunn was chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee in the US Congress (1987-89) and offered “early support for the Strategic Defense Initiative (known popularly as “Star Wars”) and aid to anti-Communist “Contra” forces in Nicaragua,” according to the Encyclopedia of World Biography. These are interesting connections, as we shall explore below: both were connected to ‘Project Democracy’ and UN Public Diplomacy, a great deal of which in the 1980s, according to Nicholas J. Cull, was run by the CSIS through David M. Abshire in relation to the deployment of ground launched cruise missiles in Europe, which Hoffmann seems to also have had some connection with.

The World Security Network Foundation (WSN) —an international, independent, nonprofit organization —is the largest global elite network for foreign and security policy with the purpose of Networking a Safer World promoting an active foreign policy we label World 3.0. It includes a double-strategy of power and diplomacy including reconciliation, creativity, active elites, codes of tolerance, a better planning-process and active implementation, sufficient defense capabilities combined with a pro-active foreign policy.

This NGO was founded and funded by Dr. Hubertus Hoffmann, a German investor and geo-strategist living in Berlin, former advisor in the European Parliament, the German Bundestag and U.S. Senate in foreign and defense affairs and activist for over 25 years.

WSN was initiated by legendary German-American geo-strategist Dr Fritz Kraemer with Dr. Hoffmann in 2001. Read more about this long-time mentor of Dr. Hubertus Hoffmann, Dr. Henry Kissinger and General Alexander Haig in the new book of Hubertus Hoffmann, True Keeper of the Holy Flame. The Legacy of Pentagon-Strategist and Mentor Dr Fritz Kraemer or in www.worldsecuritynetwork.com/fritzkraemer.

The World Security Network is:

not American, Asian or European; we are the largest global-elite action network for foreign and defense affairs in the world, focusing on the young, new elite.

neither left nor right, neither U.S. Republican nor U.S. Democrat, or indeed an adherent to any other party line. WSN is an independent, international and pluralistic non-profit organization.

neither a peace movement nor an organization of warmongers: it promotes a realistic and credible balance of Realpolitik and Idealpolitik, of power and diplomacy, of necessary military actions and reconciliation; a double strategy of solid and realistic peacemaking - the new art of peacemaking we call World 3.0

solution-oriented, looking for concrete proposals for all conflicts.

not bureaucratic: we are creative and action-oriented, like businessmen.

not fanatical: we are engaged global citizens with the vision of networking a safer and better world for our children.

A WSN network of 100 mostly young editors with 34 nationalities between them report from New York, Washington, D.C., Tokyo, Paris, Vienna, London, Rome, Moscow, Athens, Munich, Berlin, Ankara, Sweden, Poland, Finland, Estonia, Norway, Caucasus, Singapore, Cairo, Beirut, New Delhi, Peshawar, Islamabad, China, Nepal, Mexico, Peru, Canada, Kenya, Saudi Arabia and Australia.

Fritz Kraemer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fritz_G._A._Kraemer

Fritz Gustav Anton Kraemer (July 3, 1908 – September 8, 2003) was a German-American military educator and advisor.

Kraemer was born in Essen, Germany, the eldest child of Jewish parents Georg Kraemer (born Berlin 1872, died Theresienstadt 1942) and Anna Johanna (Jennie) Kraemer, née Goldschmidt (born Essen 1886, died Washington DC 1971) and studied at the famous Arndt Gymnasium in Berlin, the London School of Economics[1] and the Universities of Geneva and Frankfurt before earning a doctorate in law at the University of Frankfurt in 1931 and a doctorate in Political Science at the University of Rome in 1934.

During most of the 1930s he was Senior Legal Advisor to the League of Nations at the League’s Legal Institute in Rome. In 1933, he married his wife, Britta Bjorkander, a Swedish citizen...

...A gifted talent scout and teacher, in 1944 he discovered young Henry Kissinger, whom Kraemer had recruited into Army division. In 1961 Kraemer also discovered Alexander Haig, and in 1969 Kraemer recommended Haig as the Military Assistant to then National Security Advisor Kissinger. Sven Kraemer, Fritz G. A. Kraemer's son, also served in the Nixon-Kissinger National Security Council.

.From the early 1950s until 1978, when Kraemer retired from civil service, he served as Senior Civilian Advisor to the U.S. Army Chief of Staff in the Pentagon and influenced the Department of Defense during the Cold War. During his time at the Pentagon, he also influenced Secretaries of Defense James R. Schlesinger and Donald Rumsfeld.

http://nixontapes.org/kraemer.html

...Fritz G.A. Kraemer. Colodny and Shachtman argue that Kraemer was the leading intellectual behind what became known as the neo-conservative movement, witnessed by the fact that Kraemer influenced so many high-ranking conservative figures over the course of six decades.

..What we see in The Forty Years War is that Vietnam split conservatives into two groups: those who sought reconciliation with America's adversaries (including not only North Vietnam, but also the Soviet Union and China), and those who thought weak-kneed political leaders were giving away too much to America's adversaries, including restricting military solutions in Vietnam and more generally pursuing policies of détente. Following Vietnam, Henry Kissinger emerged as the best example of a member of the former group, while Fritz Kraemer continued to lead the latter group.

The split occurred during the fall of 1972, at the moment the Nixon administration was closest to reaching a peace agreement with North and South Vietnam. Most importantly, the split was captured on the Nixon taping system. Before publication of The Forty Years War, no attention had been paid to a meeting that took place on October 24, 1972, yet it has all the makings of pure intrigue. At 11:15 am, Henry Kissinger and his long-time mentor, Fritz Kraemer, entered the Oval Office for a private meeting with President Nixon.

To interested observers and professional historians alike, the meeting raises far more questions than it answers. Management guru Peter Drucker referred to Kraemer as "the man who discovered Kissinger." Donald Rumsfeld referred to Kraemer as "the keeper of the flame", and during a speech upon his departure from the Pentagon in 2006, he cited Kraemer's controversial philosophy of "provocative weakness." Kissinger himself referred to Kraemer in an emotional eulogy as "the greatest single influence of my formative years." In 2000, Alexander Haig told James Rosen, author of The Strong Man: John Mitchell and the Secrets of Watergate, that Fritz Kraemer "detests Henry today, even though he was Henry's father in the United States." National Security Council Staff Member Roger Morris stated that it was "probably Kraemer in the Pentagon" who was responsible for Haig's appointment as Kissinger's deputy. After all, neither Nixon nor Kissinger knew Haig previously; however, Kraemer naturally had the ear of Kissinger.
