Hillary Group Partnered With Company That Laundered $250 Billion For Iran And Violated Sanctions

On July 29, 2009, at a news conference in New Delhi, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton proudly announced that “Vital Voices Global Partnership,” an NGO that she said she had “founded”, had partnered with Standard Chartered Bank to promote women’s causes throughout Asia.

Unfortunately, Standard Chartered, which also donated generously to the Clinton Foundation Global Initiative, was charged by federal and New York State prosecutors of laundering over $250 billion for Iran and “deliberately” helping Iran circumvent sanctions imposed to cripple its nuclear program.  In August and December, 2012 — Standard Chartered paid a total $667 million in fines to settle the cases and admitted its criminal activity.

First, the New York State Department of Financial Services fined Standard Chartered $340 million and, several months later, the Department of Justice negotiated a fine of $327 million in December of last year.  Jaspal Bindra, the CEO of Asia Standard Bank, serves on the board of Vital Voices.

According to the New York State Department of Financial Services the ten years of illegal activity by Standard Chartered “left the US financial system vulnerable to terrorists, weapons dealers, drug kingpins, and corrupt regimes and deprived law enforcement investigators of crucial information used to track all manner of criminal activity.”

And all the while, Standard Chartered was funding programs related to the Clintons.  The ties among former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the Clinton Global Initiative and Standard Chartered run long and deep:

•  On September 26, 2007, former President Bill Clinton announced that Standard Chartered had committed to underwrite $4-5 billion in debt over the next five years to renewable energy organizations in Asia, Africa and Middle East.

•  In 2008, Standard Chartered agreed with the Clinton Global Initiative to invest $20 million over five years to help 20 million people in less advantaged areas of twenty cities worldwide.

•  Also, in 2008, former President Bill Clinton announced a commitment by Standard Chartered in partnership with Vital Voices and the Clinton Global Initiative for a regional initiative called Women Can to promote economic empowerment for Asian women.

•  In September 2010, Standard Chartered committed to the Clinton Global Initiative to raise $100 million by2020 to help eliminate avoidable blindness.

•  In September of 2011, Standard Chartered made another commitment to educate one million people with AIDS in Africa as part of the Clinton Global Initiative.

As recently as last year, Standard Chartered was a sponsor of the Clinton Global Initiative.

The involvement of Vital Voices with Standard Chartered flies in the face of Hillary Clinton’s strong condemnation of Iran and her vigorous efforts to promote global sanctions to deter its nuclear weapon development.  But the extensive involvement of the former Secretary’s NGO — with which she still maintains a close connection — with a company central to evading sanctions raises serious questions about possible conflicts of interest.

Vital Voices prominently features the emblem of the Secretary of State and of Standard Chartered on its Facebook page.  And, Vital Voices lists Standard Chartered as a “partner” on its web site.  Melanne Verveer, a long time Hillary aide, serves as Chairman Emeritus of Vital Voices.

    I suspect that Hillary is being targeted for discredit for 2016 by the same puppet masters of Obama who beat her in 2008. I imagine they want their own candidate.

    Or getting her dirty laundry out and finished early, way before the primaries. The NYT broke the story and they are Hilary Rotten’s free publicity organ and mouthpiece. This story was designed to come out now and by the NYT.

    I know you’re shocked – SHOCKED to think that a Clinton could be involved in anything untoward, but I’m afraid it is true.

    ai would be more shocked if it wasn’t true. It is my view that being opportunistic and especially corruptible is one of the most important qualifications for ascent in power politics. these characteristics attract the big money because such a person can be manipulated through blackmail and extortion. Every deal they make along the way is dept on record until they have the perpetual choice of complete personal and family ruin as opposed to playing along and being ultra rich.

  4. This story is potentially much bigger and wider than jut money laundering:

    Ira Magaziner
    Ira Magaziner (born November 8, 1947 ) was born in New York City, New York, USA. After being a student activist and business consultant, Magaziner became the senior advisor for policy development for President Clinton, especially as chief healthcare policy advisor. He now serves as chairman of the William J. Clinton Foundation’s international development initiatives, which are at the forefront of non-governmental organizations in addressing Global Health and Environmental issues.

    The Biography of Benjamin Netanyahu

    by Barry Chamish

    In 1976, the loss of his brother Yoni during the Entebbe raid derailed Binyamin’s plans to become an architect. Instead he settled for an MA in business administration and took a post at the Boston Consulting Group. His boss was Ira Magaziner, (I think Romney as well?) the man who later became the intellectual force behind the Clinton administration’s failed health-care reform package.

    Already earning $100,000, and with a splendid career ahead of him, Netanyahu decided to give it all up and return to Israel to act as the marketing manager of a furniture concern, RIM Furniture, for a fraction of his Boston salary.

  5. HOW HILLARY MADE THAT $100K IN CATTLE FUTURES
    POSTED BY ANN BARNHARDT – AUGUST 9, ARSH 2013 7:24 AM MST
    I can’t remember if I have ever written this up, or maybe just explained it in a interview at some point, but I have had several people ask, so I’ll explain it.
    This is how Hillary Clinton “made” $100,000 off of an initial “investment” of $1000 in cattle futures back in the early 80’s.

    It was textbook money laundering.

    I know you’re shocked – SHOCKED to think that a Clinton could be involved in anything untoward, but I’m afraid it is true.

    Back in the 80’s in Arkansas, Bill and Hillary were the power couple ascending first to the position of Attorney General and then to the governor’s mansion. Being the psychopathic whores that they both are, they were all about cashing in on their power and accepting de facto bribes and payola.

    In Arkansas the Tyson family (as in Tyson chicken) were the big players at the time. Wal-Mart was still getting off the ground. Old Man Tyson wanted to buy off the Clintons, and so a money laundering scheme was hatched. A futures account would be opened with a broker named Red Bone (no joke) in HILLARY’S NAME. Red Bone cleared through a company called Refco, which would later become MF Global. That company through its entire history and iterations has always been a hive of villainy.

    Anyway, the account was opened in Hillary’s name and Hillary made an opening deposit of $1000.

    Every day at the opening bell Red Bone, per Old Man Tyson’s instructions, would put in two orders: Buy 50 contracts of live cattle futures AND sell 50 contracts of live cattle futures. (I’m just using 50 as a round number, I don’t know exactly what the quantites were.)

    At the close the same thing would be done – buy 50 and sell 50.

    On days in which the market was higher from the open to the close, Hillary’s account would be assigned the lower buy from the open and the higher sell from the close. If the close was $0.25 per pound higher than the open, the math would look like this:

    $0.25 X 400 = $100 per contract
    $100 per contract X 50 contracts = $5000

    A live cattle contract is 40,000 pounds, so the coefficient is 400. Trust me on that. The price is actually quoted in “hundredweights”, hence the dropping of two zeroes.

    Now here’s the money laundering bit. The “losing” trades, namely the sell executed at the open and the buy executed at the close at the same prices would be assigned to Old Man Tyson’s account.

    On days when the market moved lower from the open to the close, Hillary was given the sell from the open and the buy from the close. Sell high, buy back low. Tyson got the opposite side.

    Do that every day for a month or so and you can move $100k from Tyson to the Clintons very quickly. I think Red Bone also threw a few “losers” into Hillary’s account just to attempt to cover their tracks – and yes, he made commission on all of it. I didn’t back the commissions out of the calculation above, but of course Red Bone charged a hefty commission on every contract.

    Giving the “good” trades to Hillary and the “bad” trades to Tyson is simply a way to move money from Tyson to the Clintons without Tyson writing the Clintons a check. This is called “money laundering”.

    This case was actually the reason why the law was changed and brokers HAD to attach an account number to every order UPON ENTERING THE ORDER. I started in the business in 1997, and that change predated me by 15 years. I can’t imagine how it is that they let people assign account numbers at the end of the day – ever. That is just begging for unfair practices with regards to assigning of prices to customers. Favoritism, frontrunning, etc.

    Oh, and Hillary claimed complete ignorance about all of this, which is, of course, a complete lie. She and Bill knew exactly what they were doing and why.

    Too bad no one cared about the Clintons being psychopathic liars and conartists, because maybe then Hillary wouldn’t have been able to murder Ambassador Chris Stevens and run all of those guns and MANPADS to the Muslim Brotherhood/AlQaeda, amongst all of their many other crimes.

    Things like this matter. Give a money laundering psychopath enough power and they will move on to murder, genocide and tyranny. Ignore these indicators at your own peril.
