Chagoury is a wealthy Lebanese construction magnate and longtime friend of former President Bill Clinton. His worldwide exploits were heavily documented in The New York Times bestselling book Clinton Cash, authored by Breitbart News Senior Editor-at-Large Peter Schweizer. In Chagoury, one finds a clear-cut example of how foreign influencers bought access to the Clintons by funneling donations to the Clinton Foundation while Hillary Clinton was in command of the State Department. Here are five of the most devastating facts about one of the Clintons closest cronies: 1. Gilbert Chagoury donated nearly a half-million dollars to Democratic party voter efforts before attending the Clintons White House Christmas party. In 1996, Gilbert Chagoury donated $460,000 to a controversial Miami-based Democratic voter-registration group called Vote Now 96. As a foreign citizen, Chagoury is barred from donating directly to elected officials or political parties. But his three contributions of $200,000, $10,000, and $250,000, made in September and October 1996, were completely legal because Vote Now 96 was a nonprofit organization. Just two months after making his six-figure donations, Chagoury was among the 250 guests who attended the Clintons White House Christmas party. 2. Chagoury was convicted of laundering millions. In 2000, Switzerland convicted Chagoury of money-laundering and aiding a criminal organization in connection with the billions of dollars stolen from Nigeria during the [Sani] Abacha years of military dictatorship, according to a PBS Frontline report. Chagoury later entered a plea deal, and the charges were expunged. 3. Chagourys name was once on a federal no-fly list. After the failed Christmas day bombing of an American passenger plane by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab in 2010, Chagourys name was added to a federal terrorist no-fly list. The billionaire admitted to being an acquaintance of Abdulmutallabs father, who is a Nigerian banker. 4. Chagoury was named a kingpin of Nigerian corruption. In July 2004, Nigerias then-top anti-corruption prosecutor, Nuhu Ribadu, watched as Chagourys private jet landed and then, abruptly, took off allowing the corrupt businessman to escape arrest. Ribadus office spent years building a corruption case against Chagoury, who was once a senior adviser to Nigerias longtime dictator Sani Abacha. According to a PBS Frontline report, Ribadu says that Chagoury made it possible for Abacha to steal billions of dollars and lined his own pockets in the process. 5. Chagoury admitted in British court to bribery. In 2001, the construction magnate confessed in a British court to assisting the family of deceased Nigerian dictator, Sani Abacha, in transferring $300 million into foreign bank accounts. Despite Chagourys many troubling transgressions, the Clinton Foundation gladly accepted a $1-$5 million donation from the nefarious figure. It is also worth noting that Chagourys company, the Chagoury Group, pledged $1 billion to the Clinton Global Initiative in 2009, the same year the Clinton Global Initiative awarded the Chagoury Group its annual prize for sustainable development. The money pledged was at the heart of Sen. David Vitters (R) probe into whether Chagourys cozy relationship with the Clintons played a roll in Clintons State Departments delay of a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO) designation on Nigerian Islamist group Boko Haram; an FTO classification would have severely hampered Chagourys business endeavors in Nigeria.

Holy (*)(*)(*)(*)... Thank you for posting this eye opener. So, this is one of Clinton's close friends and business associates, eh? There's an old saying that never rang more true than in Clinton's case - TELL ME WHO YOUR FRIENDS ARE, AND I'll TELL YOU WHO YOU ARE.
The world's richest banker, Joseph Safra, also was a large contributor to the Clintons. httphttp://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/banker-richest-jospeh-safra-corruption-charge-a6963126.html:// Joseph Safra, 77, owner of the Safra group, is the latest member of the elite in Brazil to be embroiled in a corruption scandal. The financier, who owns Londons Gherkin tower, is worth an estimated $18.3 billion, according to Fortune, making him the second richest man in Brazil. Mr Safra is alleged to have known about plans by his senior employees to bribe tax officials R$15.3m (£2.9 million) in return for reducing taxes owed to the state of Brazil, which are now worth R$1.8bn. Mr Safra, born in Aleppo, Syria, made his money through a lucrative career in finance. In addition to owning Banco Safra, one of the most well-known private banks in Brazil, his family also own banks in New York and Switzerland. The charges against him come as part of Operation Zealots, a broader investigation into business corruption in Brazil." Besides the fact that this corrupt international banker is a donor to the Clintons -- Dan Alexander of Forbes.com writes: "Since Bill and Hillary Clinton left the White House in 2001, they have earned more than $230 million. But in federal filings the Clintons claim they are worth somewhere between $11 million and $53 million. After layering years of disclosures on top of annual tax returns, Forbes estimates their combined net worth at $45 million. Where did all of the money go? No one seems to know, and the Clintons arent offering any answers." "It seems unlikely, but they could have given it away overseas: Donations to foreign charities are not deductible and would not be listed on tax returns. Billionaires like Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal of Saudi Arabia, Lakshmi Mittal of India and Joseph Safra of Brazil have donated to their foundation. Maybe the Clintons are returning the favor?" Money laundering. Maybe we should call her the laundry woman.
http://www.foreignpolicyjournal.com/2016/01/06/new-hillary-emails-reveal-true-motive-for-libya-intervention/ Here's a summary of a long, twisted story: Emails revealed that Hillary was advised and complicit in the extra-judicial killings of "foreign mercenaries" by rebel "death squads". Black Libyans were commonly branded as “foreign mercenaries” by the rebel opposition for their perceived general loyalty to Gaddafi as a community and subjected to torture, executions, and their towns “liberated” by ethnic cleansing. This is demonstrated in the most well-documented example of Tawergha, an entire town of 30,000 black and “dark-skinned” Libyans which vanished by August 2011 after its takeover by NATO-backed NTC Misratan brigades. "The same intelligence email from Sydney Blumenthal also confirms what has become a well-known theme of Western supported insurgencies in the Middle East: the contradiction of special forces training militias that are simultaneously suspected of links to Al Qaeda." Hillary's special operatives were “overseeing the transfer of weapons and supplies to the rebels” including “a seemingly endless supply of AK47 assault rifles and ammunition.” It turned out that the very militias these Western special forces were training were discovered to be “radical/terrorist groups such as the Libyan Fighting Groups and Al Qa’ida in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) are infiltrating the NLC and its military command.” Dead men tell no tales. But emails do. You should read the linked article - it's enlightening.
Nah. It's written by the Trump campaign's media outlet Breitbart which is well for writing mostly garbage.
Ironic comment. You are apparently unaware of Google tampering with their search engine to wipe out anything derogatory about Hillary, and to eliminate facts dug up just recently on George Soros' nefarious activities, including his quote that migrations and crime like we are seeing in the EU are, in his words, "The new normal". Try it for yourself: start typing (hillary's health) and all the suggestions will be glowing articles about health care reform.
Search engine tampering is real.I however,enjoyed the internet when it was truly free. You go on ahead with your bad self Nothing can ever take that away.
Who the heck reads the National Inquirer? I mean, my grandmother does, but she reads all of the gossip rags.
Although this particualr article was written by Breitbart, the history of Chagoury and the Clintons is not exactly... secret... I'm not sure there is any conspiracy foundation being laid here?
I'm perfectly accustomed to vocabulary in excess of being duosyllabic, thank you kindly; in fact, I've endured far more sesquipidilian loquaciousness than you might fathom.
She didnt actually sodomize ghadaffi with a knife and kill him. She used 6 billion in US taxpayer dollars to hire her own terrorist army to do it for her. She just claimed the credit.....

But what good did that accomplish? By the way,He was promised to be left alone.Yet another lie. This policy of "Regime change" has not worked once for any good,ever! I think it's all about Agenda 21 style population reduction. The NeoCons are pushing war propaganda already in anticipation of a Hillary win. They better be careful what they wish for.It will not go as they plan.They might have to end up foraging for food.

I don't actually care. I'm voting against Trump, not for Hilalry, and I stand by my position that four years with her as president would be far preferable to four years under that man. I refuse to have the United States be known for having elected someone with the average vocabulary of a third grader, and a predilection for misspelling people's names while he exploits their loved ones deaths for political gain, not to mention his incessant line of vaguely racist comments, and his ridiculous policy positions. I'm unconvinced that a world where Hillary never did anything wrong would look any different from the way the world looks now, but a world where Trump is suited for being commander in chief looks very different indeed.
Wow,that there is someone who swallowed a bunch of lies hook,line,and sinker. "Dangerous Donald Trump lacks the Judgment or Temperament to be President" https://wikileaks.org/dnc-emails/emailid/9349
I remember now.Being Ghaddafi was President of the African Union;He wanted to put Africa on the Gold Standard.That's probably why they killed him. He was trying to do the best he could for his people. Now the country is all kinds of devolved.Modern buildings that were inhabited are in shambles.Fringe Islamic groups moving in. Hillary Clinton is directly responsible for it, too. http://www.finalcall.com/artman/publish/World_News_3/article_7886.shtml https://www.rt.com/news/economy-oil-gold-libya/ http://www.thenewamerican.com/econo...-gold-money-plan-would-have-devastated-dollar http://www.mining.com/gaddafis-gold-diamond-billions-found-in-south-africa-73433/ http://www.globalresearch.ca/libya-ten-things-about-gaddafi-they-dont-want-you-to-know/5414289
