Why
Hillary's emails are still important
By Scott
Robbins
The
FBI won't indict her, but that's petty compared to meddling with the global
economy. Wikileaks may have revealed a new economic "global order",
courtesy of Hillary and the Clinton Global Initiative.
I'm not sure whether
people simply don't care about integrity, or have forgotten what it means. The
presumptive nominee for the Democrats has been under investigation by the FBI for over a
year. At first I didn't take the email "scandal" very seriously, but
curiosity got the best of me and I poured over hundreds of these emails. What I
saw is that since 2009 Hillary seems to have been using the Clinton Global
Initiative as a diplomatic tool to establish trade relations and form policy
with foreign nations.
Wikileaks published the enormous cache
of 30,322 Hillary's emails. Wikileaks is not 100% morally pure, but if
technology allows individuals to reveal information that will affect the entire
world isn't there a moral imperative to share this information?
Many of the emails I read
were not interesting. However, I stumbled across a few abnormal exchanges
between Abedin and Hillary, and upon further investigation these
correspondences seemed to be the most interesting and cryptic. Naturally, I
continued digging. Abedin, simultaneously worked within the
State Department, the Clinton Foundation and for Teneo. This appears to be a direct conflict of
interest and perhaps an example of collusion. Abedin's concern about the security of
Hillary's server only helps to validate the potential power of what it
contains.

This was the first one to catch my
eye. It's a very detailed security brief, followed by bizarre dialogue between
Hillary and Abedin that reads like a conversation between paranoid drug
dealers. I've always loved a good puzzle, so after reading this email I decided
it was worth investigating.
8/9/09: Hillary staffer suggests using
the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) as a
means of diplomacy, saying the "theme could be 'Implementing Peace'."
She goes even further saying, "obviously a session could have wider
application into say the Middle East peace and political process."
9/15/09: Abedin and Clinton's exchange
appears to be pre-emptive preparation for defending the accountability of
defense spending or development of some kind, but it's unclear what is going to
be developed and where... On the same day, HRC plans to meet with Sheikha Mosa of Qatar,
which is intriguing and will come up later.
9/20/09-9/24/09: Corporate money flowing into government (9/22), and it's unclear
why. This email, from later that day, clarifies that Hillary and the
CGI were preparing for the "Philanthropy Oscars" in Ireland, with the goal of proving that
"The big win is in remaking government through innovative partnerships
with the private sector. Mrs Clinton has been mulling over what to do with
USAID for nearly a year. What better opportunity than the CGI to announce a
bold new strategy for smart aid?"
The hair stood up on the
back of my neck. Why are state department officials so closely linked with the
CGI? How can Hillary blatantly use her own private organization to further the
agenda of the nation she holds public office for? This would be a new form of
diplomacy.
The next day in this 9/24/09 email, Abedin relays to HRC that
Congress "earmarked 2.5 mil dollars for democracy stuff in Libya"
and that the money was intended to go to NGOs, but some of the money
"was going to an NGO with links to an NGO in Libya run by a
Qadhafi."
6/7/10: Sheikha Mosa of Qatar apparently
wants her son to "build a wider international profile" because he's
" keen to talk more generally about US/Qatari cooperation ". (Qatar
is one of the world's largest exporters of liquified gas,
among other things...)
On 10/3/10 HRC met with FM Judeh again,
and later held private meeting with retired General Jack Keane (now on the
Board of Directors for General Dynamics, a multinational defense
conglomerate that is also the world's 5th largest defense contractor). General
Dynamics financial reports from 2010 and 2011 would
indicate that the business of war was booming.
9/14/2011: Explicitly states that the Dept.
of State will be attending a conference with CGI and Goldman Sachs. Is it not
inappropriate for a State Dept. official (Hillary) to start getting the DoS,
CGI, and Private banks in the same room to discuss world affairs?
11/10/11: Apparently the meetings between
Qatari's and the US manifested as cooperative conflict in Libya.
6/22/12: Speech given by Hillary. I recommend you read the whole thing,
but the last paragraph is truly shocking, for good or ill, saying "I am
confident that we will continue to serve and defend a peaceful and prosperous
global order for many years to come."

9/22/12: Schedule of Annual CGI meeting.
The opening session remarks: "In a world of seven billion people, the
demand on natural and man-made resources is greater than ever before. Yet we
also have more human capital than ever before." It's hard to tell if this
is a path to world peace or a new world order. With the events hosted by
various CEO's (Walmart, Lego, Goldman Sachs...etc.), Presidents, and a representative
of the World Bank Group. Call me cynical,
but it's hard to imagine these entities being driven by magnanimity.

| Wikileaks Email 7058. Clinton Global Initiative becomes diplomacy? |
I have expressed my
doubts about Hillary before. Hillary is unbelievably active, and
communicates daily with half a dozen nations. She seems almost too good at
facilitating communication between so many nations.
Her methods work because
all leaders like money. Apparently, offering people a piece of a new globalized
economic agenda is compelling.
With the TPP, TTIP, and
TiSA (when combined, will isolate trade of 2/3 of the world's GDP) already
being drafted, the foundation has been built, and the right people have been
connected.
The Clinton Global
Initiative appears to have become the most "successful" diplomatic
strategy in history; quite the achievement for a non-profit with the namesake
of a candidate for the Presidency.
So are you excited for
the new "prosperous global order"?
