The Clinton connection to Russia’s claims on uranium
Times of India ^ | April 23, 2015 | Jo Becker,NYT News Service

Posted on 04/23/2015 4:56:21 AM PDT by Cincinatus' Wife

The headline in Pravda trumpeted President Vladimir Putin's latest coup, its nationalistic fervor recalling an era when the newspaper served as the official mouthpiece of the Kremlin: "Russian Nuclear Energy Conquers the World."

The article, in January 2013, detailed how the Russian atomic energy agency, Rosatom, had taken over a Canadian company with uranium-mining stakes stretching from Central Asia to the American West. The deal made Rosatom one of the world's largest uranium producers and brought Putin closer to his goal of controlling much of the global uranium supply chain.

But the untold story behind that story is one that involves not just the Russian president but also a former US president and a woman who would like to be the next one.

At the heart of the tale are several men, leaders of the Canadian mining industry, who have been major donors to the charitable endeavors of former President Bill Clinton and his family. Members of that group built, financed and eventually sold to the Russians a company that would become known as Uranium One.

Americans who want to succeed, and who want our country to succeed, need to consider Hillary's and Bill's devotion to the U.N. and to their multi-billion dollar slush fund, called the Clinton Global Initiative.

The Clintons and their backers look to the UN, and to George Soros, and to anti-American countries (who have a vested interest in a weak U.S. national defense [what Hillary and her administration in waiting call "SMART" national/international defense/diplomacy] and a weak U.S. economy).

When Americans (of all stripes) understand that this is where the Clinton's money and muscle comes from, they will understand why her election to the presidency is so bad for them and the country.

It couldn't be clearer and that is why the MSM is going along with Hillary's "Un-running" campaign.

Hillary campaign swats at Iran charge in ‘Clinton Cash’

"With an exasperated swipe at “absurd right-wing conspiracy theories,” Hillary Clinton’s campaign on Wednesday rejected the allegation in a new book that she watered down Iran sanctions to please a corporation that paid Bill Clinton a fortune in speaking fees.

The accusation appears in “Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich,” which is due out May 5. Republicans hope the book will cripple her presidential bid. Democrats have underlined conservative author Peter Schweizer’s past credibility problems.

But the charges — and the Clinton team’s aggressive and systematic pushback against them — highlight once again how vulnerable the former first lady, senator, and secretary of state could prove to be to attacks centered on her family’s finances since they left the White House......"

WSJ REPORT: Hillary Clinton’s State Department was part of a panel that approved the sale of one of America’s largest uranium mines at the same time a foundation controlled by the seller’s chairman was making donations to a Clinton family charity, records reviewed by The Wall Street Journal show. Between 2008-2012, the Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative, a project of the Clinton Foundation, received $2.35 million from the Fernwood Foundation, a family charity run by Ian Telfer, chairman of Uranium One before its sale, according to Canada Revenue Agency records.

===============================================

BOMBSHELL The Fernwood contributions to the Clinton Foundation don’t appear on the Clinton Foundation website, under an agreement between the Clinton foundation and the Obama administration.

=======================================================

LET'S GO OVER THIS AGAIN: The WSJ reports the Obama administration had an "agreement w/ the Clinton Foundation" not to list Fernwood Foundation's contributions to the Clintons on its website.

CONCLUSION This explains why, just the other day, White House press secretary Josh Earnest asserted that the Clinton Foundation was “doing excellent work all across the world” and that President Obama was “incredibly proud” of Hillary Clinton’s record at the State Department.

So when Obama was on the golf course when foreign policy decisions were being made by his WH, looking like he "didn't know" about all these radical changes in foreign policy it wasn't b/c Valerie "forgot" to tell him.

Apparently, the insider deal was Obama pleading abject stupidity about US foreign policy being jerked around by the Clintons.......as long as he got his cut of the Clintons' foreign policy finagling.

Did the deal include Saddam's uranium ore the US shipped to Canada by air?

I read the first couple of comments on the Times web site on this story and she’s getting slammed!

Elizabeth Warren is opposing Obama’s trade plans so she’s probably under investigation herself.

Oh, no...it's deja vu all over again.

"With an exasperated swipe at “absurd right-wing conspiracy theories,” Hillary’s campaign apparat rejected the allegation that she watered down Iran sanctions to please a corporation that paid Bill Clinton a fortune in speaking fees. The accusation appears in “Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich,” which is due out May 5.

Remember when Bill got lubed in the Oval Office?

To this day, Hillary's standout qualification (/snort) is that she gallantly stood by him when Billy got lewinskied...Monica was later vilified by Hillary as a "stalker."

Hillary has an annoying way of bouncing back out of trouble. Hillary's sub rosa political ambitions were in deep doo-doo when Bill got lewinskied. What to do?

Easy. Blame it on conservatives.

Hill went on network TV all decked out in virginal pearls,
denying everything, blaming Billy's B/J on "an invention of
the VRWC."

Bill later admitted to it, was impeached, and disbarred.

I’m not sure she can bounce back this time. Liberals just don’t like her.
