Amid Human Rights Concerns, Bill Clinton Thanks Moroccan King (last stop on buckraking tour)

(MARRAKECH, Morocco) — To a cheering audience at the Clinton Global Initiative Middle East/Africa Meeting, ex-Pres Bill Clinton thanked host King Mohammed VI of Morocco. “[He] just called me ... He was very pleased we were all here,” Clinton said closing out the final panel session. King Mohammed VI was rumored to be involved in the meeting, but did not appear on the press schedule. Morocco's wealthiest person, banker Othman Benjelloun, is sponsoring the Foundation event along w/ the state-owned mining company, Office Cherifien des Phosphates. OCP has been criticized for removing area resources without compensating the impoverished residents. A $1 million govt gift financed the Clinton Foundation's prestigious event and lavish cocktail party.

The country has a rocky human rights record — but no one mentioned it as the former president, his daughter Chelsea, and hundreds of wealthy Clinton Foundation donors and supporters soaked in the scenery at five-star golf resorts near Marrakech. “Any time human rights are systematically suppressed it’s a serious concern,” sais David McKean who has studied the issue for the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights. Reporters Without Borders and Human Rights Watch paint an equally dismal picture of the country’s civil liberties. Copyright © 2015, ABC Radio.

What, the 5th Estate is acting as if its codpiece isn’t full of sand?

A THOUGHTFUL PERSON MAY ASK: what's Clinton doing in a Third World---being lavished w/ luxury---and kissing-up to a monarch who suppresses and impoverishes his own people?

From Peter Schweizer's blockbuster book, “Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich”:.....“The Clintons’ most lucrative transactions originate not in places like Germany or Great Britain, where business and politics are kept separate by stringent ethical rules and procedures, but in despotic areas of the developing world where the rules are very different.”

Author Schweizer sums up the Clintons on page 183: "The Clintons are perhaps the most politically sophisticated public figures of their generation. They know how things work in the corridors of power and around the world; they know that foreign governments are trying to influence American foreign policy; and they know that bribery i

If Clinton counts hopping on a private jet w/ rich celebrities as "charity work," then the Kardashian sisters should be eligible for sainthood. (Sean Davis, The Federalist)

SUCKING UP TO THE MINORITY VOTE---The itinerary of the Clinton coterie of do-good billionaires includes Tanzania, then Kenya and a visit to a Clinton Global Initiative-funded anti-elephant poaching project – followed by Liberia.

Last is Morocco, where King Mohammed VI supplied an opulent conference paid for by Moroccan donors including a govt-owned phosphate company – which donated $1 million, according to Politico.(Although no one has admitted what favors they rec'd from Hillary's State Dept.)

Bill Clinton and daughter Chelsea with a plane-full of family foundation donors and Hillary Clinton supporters in tow, travel together on a nine-day safari....adding fuel to accusations that contributors are getting rewarded -- and are being ***-kissed for even more money for Hillary.

ALL ABOARD THE PRIVATE JET NAMED: "DO-GOOD AND MAKING A BUCK ON IT". The idea is to observe foreign projects the Clinton Global Initiative has financed WRT health care, global warming, wildlife protection, education and agriculture, amid the growing controversy over donations to the Clinton family's foundation.

Yet another nauseating example of donors -- to both the foundation and Hillary's campaign -- getting something in return.

But wait----the Clinton entourage---big-buck foundation donors and Hillary campaign suck-ups are lying-in-wait. Salivating for Hillary to wield the presidential pen....payback w/ huge interest (paid for by struggling taxpayers).

ALL THIS AS CANDIDATE HILLARY HYPOCRITICALLY "CHAMPIONS" THE MIDDLE-CLASS their billionaire pals are the ones who will be looting the US Treasury.

Tax free money is paying for this lavish vacation to 'help the poor'. What a joke.

The cover story is that billionaire Hillary supporters and Foundation donors were flown all over to observe foreign projects the Clinton Global Initiative financed WRT health care, global warming, wildlife protection, education and agriculture....while being lavished w/ luxury in Third World hellholes where impoverished people do not have enough to eat.

Here's a peek at the numerous Clinton slush funds.

NOTE The do-gooder Clintons calculatedly morphed into
"The Bill, Hillary & Chelsea Clinton Family Foundation" .....
giving them even more fund-raising capabilities w/ a friendly "family" aura.

Thanks for that----he looks worried----nice to see the creep w/ out that dopey hillbilly grin on his mug. He better be real worried---wont have much to do when that Ponzi Foundation of his comes crashing down.

When he finally went to jail, investigators found Ponzi king, Bernie Madoff, had stashed billions offshore---into a labyrinth of financial entities. Some $8.9 billion was funneled to Madoff through a dozen so-called funds based in Europe, the Caribbean and Central America......a labyrinth of hedge funds, management companies and service providers that was structured to look like a system of checks and balances.

Madoff got away with his scheme for some 25 years. Although he was jailed for running a Ponzi, Madoff's main purpose was helping billionaire tax-exempt foundations launder money and evade taxes.

As I've posted earlier---the problem is not how much they're taking in--its what the Clintons do w/ the billions once deposited in their tax-exempt foundation.

Clinton's MO is to travel the globe..... his secret accounts are everywhere.

My mind is in the gutter... I read “Buckraking Tour” as Clinton’s Bukakke Tour.
