At least they have the names, it's something to start with. I'll be offline for a bit, I'll check back later.
Boy, there's a weasal phrase if I've ever heard one. It's not necessarily true - but it's likely that certain aspects of it are true, and we're trying to cover our butts so it doesn't get out.
Well, it offended the hell out of King George. :)
Verrrry interesting.

Amazing how thin-skinned THE LEFT is when it comes to taking of offense.
As to the RC; this is the same international organization that allows the red crescent (muslim) to participate but refuses to recognize Mogen David (Israeli version) because of (oops) politics.
I am a member of the Exchange Clubs of America and we occasionally donate to the Red Cross. Another major project of The Exchange Clubs of America is a project task we call "AMERICANISM". One project that all national clubs engage in is installing in public places something that we call "The Freedom Shrine".
The "Freedom Shrine" is a collection of up to 32 of this Country's popular historic documents, and has been the hallmark project of The National Exchange Clubs of America. It's a safe bet that affiliation with the Red Cross will be on the table at the next board meeting

Mrs. Dole, by the way, as President of the American Red Cross, appears to have done more than her share of mischief in seeking to prevent the free flow of medical supplies to the general population of Yugoslavia, or to the Serb population in Bosnia, while supplies flood into Kosovo for Albanian relief. In light of this, the text of the Concurrent Resolution is to me an appalling misrepresentation of events in Kosovo in the mid-1980s, but I ask the reader to judge that for yourself.
Intereference by Mr. Dole continued in the wake of the Rambouillet talks between Serbia and the Kosovo Muslim Albanians. On Monday evening, Feb. 22, he and Mme. Albright both called Adem Demaci to discuss the failure to secure an Albanian independence referendum in the agreement (Exhibits #5-6 below).
