Big Money Swirl
Around Newt
By Michael Collins

. Former
House Speaker Newt Gingrich — who left office under
a cloud in 1999 — has pivotal political backing in
elite global financial and corporate circles and can count
on friendly support from the controlled media in pursuing
his aspirations for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination.
 Despite
his efforts to portray himself as a “conservative”
alternative to politics-as-usual, Gingrich is an unabashed
New World Order internationalist and a long-standing advocate
of destructive “free trade” policies and American
military adventurism abroad.
As
such, it is no coincidence Gingrich is a longtime member
of the Rockefeller family-financed Council on Foreign Relations
(CFR), the New York-based affiliate of the Royal Institute
of International Affairs, the policy- making apparatus of
the global empire of the Rothschild banking dynasty that
is intricately intertwined with those predatory plutocrats
on American soil who dominate the unconstitutional Federal
Reserve System, the privately owned money monopoly Ron Paul
has worked to bring into line. These facts about Gingrich
point to where his real loyalties lie.
DIRTY MONEY
On
Feb. 26 The Washington Post reported Gingrich has
assembled a multi-level, wide-ranging political conglomerate
of his own, described as “a financial empire that
could prove crucial” in advancing Gingrich’s
presidential ambitions. He has already raised more money
than possible GOP primary opponents including Sarah Palin
and Mitt Romney.
In
addition, Gingrich controls an operation known as American
Solutions for Winning the Future — a virtual private
money machine that Gingrich uses to promote himself. The
Post says this Gingrich venture has raised “more
money than any other organization of its kind nationwide,”
to the tune of more than $50 million, “much of it
as large donations from casino, energy and banking interests.”
By
far the most generous backer of Gingrich is Las Vegas-based
casino tycoon Sheldon Adelson — a hardline supporter
of Israel who once described himself as “the richest
Jew in the world.” Adelson has given Gingrich some
$6 million over the last four years.
Gingrich
also has an unusual connection to Larry Silverstein, a controversial
figure whose name has been in the forefront of the circumstances
surrounding the cover-up of the 9-11 terrorist tragedy.
While
in Congress, Gingrich benefited from the lucrative Israeli-connected
activities of his then-second wife, Marianne, who was on
the payroll of the Israel Export Development Company (IEDCO),
which promoted the importation into the United States of
Israeli products — even as Gingrich was using his
influence as a member of Congress to advance U.S.-Israeli
trade.
The
aforementioned IEDCO was an operation run by mob-connected
Silverstein, the billionaire owner of the World Trade Center
towers at the time of the 9-11 tragedy, best known for his
now infamous urging — “pull it” —
in reference to the Trade Center’s Building 7. That
skyscraper was deliberately imploded, a point 9-11 researchers
have documented relentlessly.
Mrs.
Gingrich’s lucrative deal with IEDCO was cut in August
1994 after she and her husband traveled to Israel at the
expense of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee,
a lobby for Israel. Although Mrs. Gingrich took home a monthly
salary of $2,500, plus “commissions,” she refused
to disclose the size of those “commissions.”
And while Mrs. Gingrich responded to criticisms of her sweet
deal that “If I were going to get a political payoff,
it would not be for the amount of money I am making,”
the fact is that the sums she received are precisely of
the level often seen linked to political payoffs.
IEDCO’s
Silverstein once even admitted to The Wall Street Journal
that Gingrich was one of a number of members of Congress
who was lobbied to support Silverstein’s company’s
proposals — when his wife was on Silverstein’s
payroll.

INTERNATIONALIST AT HEART
Going
back as far as 25 years, evidence was emerging that suggested
that Gingrich was not the kind of Republican that could
be considered “traditional.” A front-page exclusive
published in the Jan. 28, 1985 issue of The Spotlight
revealed that, while he was then a little known junior member
of the House of Representatives, Gingrich was the brains
behind a clique of internationalist Republicans who were
working to scrap the GOP’s historic nationalist stance
in foreign policy making. Unfortunately, this honest effort
to expose Gingrich’s internationalist bent was greeted
with a mixture of outrage and scorn by many conservatives,
who were hoodwinked by the mainstream media into following
the Georgia congressman’s peculiar brand of “leadership.”
Gingrich and his fellow GOP lawmakers dubbed themselves
the Conservative Opportunity Society (COS).
The
Spotlight revealed that Gingrich, along with several
other House Republicans, including Reps. Vin Weber (Minn.),
Connie Mack (Fla.), and Robert Walker (Pa.), had attended
a secret meeting with Donald Graham, publisher of The
Washington Post, and Meg Greenfield, the Post’s
editorial page editor. At that meeting Gingrich and his
colleagues effectively agreed to work to revamp the so-called
“conservative wing” of the Republican Party
and use their influence to push the GOP into the internationalist
camp.
In
return, the liberal Post’s power-wielders
agreed to give Gingrich and his colleagues widespread favorable
publicity in the pages of their influential daily. Until
that time Gingrich and company had been relegated to “backbench”
status by the media, sometimes painted as “extremists”
and “troublemakers.”
Gingrich
and his colleagues told the Post that they would
come out swinging in favor of economic sanctions against
the anti-communist, pro-American regime in South Africa.
This was a 180-degree reversal of the traditional “conservative”
stand in support of South Africa and in opposition to sanctions.
In no short time they did, in fact, call for sanctions,
causing syndicated columnist Pat Buchanan to comment that
Gingrich and company were “turncoat[s]” who
were guilty of “stabbing South Africa in the back.”
By adopting the new position, Gingrich and his COS clique
had signed on with the liberal internationalists in Congress
who had been waging war against South Africa for decades.
Soon
— as promised — The Washington Post published
a laudatory profile of Gingrich. This set the stage for
many future such puff-pieces promoting Gingrich and placing
him in line for his ultimate election as House minority
whip and then as House speaker. Then, to the outrage of
nationalist-minded Republicans, Gingrich’s COS colleague,
Weber, authored a prominently placed op-ed column in the
Post (never permitted as a forum for GOP conservatives)
which called upon the GOP to become “America’s
new internationalist party.” Ultimately, The Spotlight’s
world exclusive on the secret meeting between Gingrich and
the Post was confirmed by the Post itself
— but only after Gingrich had reached a position of
influence. In short, The Spotlight’s “conspiracy
theory” — as some called it — proved to
be a fact.
None
of this surprised long-time Gingrich watchers. In 1968 when
then-California Gov. Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon were
vying for “conservative” support in their respective
bids for the GOP presidential nomination, Gingrich opted
instead to sign on as the southeast regional coordinator
for their opponent, New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller. Later,
Gingrich taught at the Rockefeller-funded Emory University
in Atlanta.
What
he represents is reflected in the critical role played by
Gingrich in railroading the sovereignty-robbing, job-exporting
North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) through Congress.
He rallied enough GOP votes to enable enactment, a major
victory for fellow CFR-member, then-President Bill Clinton.
Gingrich, in fact, was almost single-handedly responsible
for ensuring NAFTA’s passage.
On
Sept. 3, 1995 The Washington Post assured its readers
that Gingrich was “okay” despite criticism of
Gingrich by some liberal critics. The Post rushed
to this defense and pointed out in a headline that “For
the ultraright, Gingrich is just a tool of the world government
plot.” The Post said that “anyone who
glances at The Spotlight, the weekly newspaper
of the far-right Liberty Lobby . . . knows that . . . Gingrich
is hardly the leader of their movement; in their eyes, he
is actively working to subvert it.” However, the Post
was careful not to mention that it was The Spotlight
that first blew the whistle on the secret deal between Gingrich
and the Post.
According
to the sarcastic and less than factual commentary by the
Post, “Those with a paranoid bent are convinced
that the Georgian is in cahoots with President Clinton,
the Rockefellers, the Freemasons, the Council on Foreign
Relations and the entire Eastern Establishment to abrogate
the Constitution and forge a New World Order under the thumb
of Jewish central bankers and the United Nations.”
The
Post smeared patriots, saying: “It is important
for national opinion-makers to understand the chasm between
most House Republicans and the loony right. Gingrich and
his GOP revolution may be controversial and provocative,
but they are not the source of violent extremism.”
GINGRICH THE CENTRIST
Another
point to keep in mind: As AFP has reported exclusively,
there is evidence Gingrich may be cooperating with a high-level
scheme to launch an ostensibly “independent”
political movement in the 2012 election, a so-called “centrist”
third party that will be used to corral grassroots opposition
to the New World Order establishment.
So
even if Gingrich does not ultimately wind up as the GOP
presidential nominee, he may have other options in the 2012
election arena.
