Interestingly, while paging through a few blogs, I came across this entry on the front page of DailyKos as a recommended diary:<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>One Big Corporation: Haditha meets the Aspens<br>by JuliaAnn<br>Thu Jun 01, 2006 at 02:19:33 PM PDT<br><br>Then there was "The Situation" with Tucker Carlson. That's when my bullshit meter went to full tilt. Carlson had a guest by the name of McCann, who wore a polo shirt with the company name Kroll emblazoned on one shoulder. His take was that maybe ... just maybe ... the insurgents did it. Yes, that's it: the insurgents did this, blamed the Marines, and somehow got military brass to do cover-up jujitsu just for the hell of it, as well as pay reparations to surviving relatives.<br><br>Who is Kroll? Who is this "expert," invited by a major news network to pontificate on the events at Haditha? Turns out, Kroll is on the administration payroll big time.<br><br>Here's some background info, though there's tons more, and now Kroll is a subsidiary of yet another company. It's an ever-changing organization where the same cast of characters move in and out.<br><br> <!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>In 1993, Maurice Greenberg's American International Group (AIG -><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> , became co-owner of the "private spy agency", Kroll Associates, as a result of rescuing Kroll from bankruptcy with a cash infusion. Kroll was notorious during the 1980s as the "CIA of Wall Street" due to the prevalence of former CIA, FBI, Scotland Yard, British secret service and British Special Air Service men Kroll employed for corporate espionage in takeover bids, as well as for destabilization of foreign nations. (See Greenberg,Maurice) Maurice Greenberg was deeply involved in chinese trade in the 80s, where Henry Kissinger was one of his representatives. In the China trade, Greenberg became very close to Shaul Eisenberg, the leader of the Asian section of the Israeli intelligence service Mossad, and agent for the sales of sophisticated military equipment to the Chinese military. Maurice Raymond Greenberg was born in New York City May 4, 1925, the son of Jacob Greenberg and Ada (Rheingold) Greenberg. The young man adopted the nickname "Hank" to make people think of a popular American baseball player with the name, Hank Greenberg. Greenberg served in the U.S. Army in the Korea conflict. He joined the insurance firm, Continental Casualty Co., in 1952. Continental executive J. Milburn Smith recommended Greenberg to the C.V. Starr insurance/spy organization, which made Greenberg its vice president in 1960, its president and CEO in 1967, and its chairman, succeeding Starr, in 1969. From 1988 to 1995, Greenberg was a director of the New York Federal Reserve bank - this branch of the system is the main instrument through which Federal Reserve chiefs and the Bank of England traditionally execute their U.S. political-economic policy. Greenberg was deputy chairman of the New York Fed in 1992 and 1993, and New York Fed chairman in 1994 and 1995. During 1996, while Greenberg was deputy chairman of the Council on Foreign Relations (See Cfr, he chaired the CFR task force on intelligence, which published "Making Intelligence Smarter: The future of U.S. Intelligence." This report mostly served to exhibit Greenberg's access to the intelligence community; but he parlayed it into a nomination by Senator Arlen Specter and others, for Greenberg to be Director of the Cia<br> Greenberg has used his connections to covert intelligence, supranational institutions, private bankers and speculators, and his huge global cash inflow, to shape a unique personal empire. Since 1997, Frank G. Wisner, Jr., has been a board member of Kroll , and is currently Greenberg's Deputy Chairman for External Affairs. Wisner's father was a founder of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, who killed himself over the scandal from his being duped by British-Soviet masterspy Kim Philby. Frank Wisner, Jr., is a director of the George Bush-linked energy giant Enron (a client for whom AIG negotiated payments from Peru over nationalization of Enron oper<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END-->[/quote]<br><br>For more, see here:<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2006/6/1/171933/6805">DailyKos</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>I found it interesting that perhaps there may be some convergence of public knowledge of all these dark shadows playing games...
