The International Crisis Group is a huge piece of the storyline of global corruption/exploitation imo.  Thanks for the name and the tip. I had posted about the start of the group here https://voat.co/v/whatever/2411240 OXFAM, Soros, the death of a disaster 'expert' Fred Cuny and the birth of the International Crisis Group See also this:  Harvard and Soros et. al. exploiting USAID funds aimed at a political 'crisis' for financial conquest spoils.  https://voat.co/v/GreatAwakening/2413834   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.
