Organized Crime in Monaco

[DMac]

I was browsing some Cryptome (http://www.cryptome.org/) archives when I noticed several mentions of a blog following organized criminals in Monaco. After browsing the blog http://sbinvestigator.blogspot.com/ I found several pieces of interesting information. I thought I would pass along the links and some info I discovered in my reading this morning.

Here is some of the good stuff:

OFFICIALLY:



ENRICO BRAGGIOTTI

Elder statesman of the Monaco banking establishment, former president of CIE Monegasque de Banque, and founder of L'Observateur magazine in Monaco.

UNOFFICIALLY:

Wanted by Italy for complicity in corruption.


Enrico BRAGGIOTTI was born 27 January 1923 in Zonguldak, Turkey, to Ettiene and Renata SOLARI.

He has connections to the infamous P2 lodge in Italy.

More info of note:



RUSSIAN ORGANIZED CRIME: PETROTRADE S.A.M.

Various groups of close associates of Russian Prime Minister Vladimir PUTIN are laundering money through Monaco and are suspected of acting on PUTIN's behalf.

One such group includes PETROTRADE S.A.M.

PETROTRADE is an oil company registered in Monaco. It first came to the attention of Monaco authorities in 1999 when they were contacted by the Polish government with regard to a money laundering investigation of BMG PETROTRADE-POLAND.

I'm curious if Petrotrade money laundering had something to do with the President (Poland) Kaczynski's assassination?


Some more info and background:

Alleged Intelligence Adviser Makes Lurid Claims About Prince Albert (http://www.antifascistencyclopedia.com/allposts/alleged-intelligence-adviser-makes-lurid-claims-about-prince-albert)

There is probably quite a bit going on in Monaco we don't know about.

I realize I'm touching more than 1 topic here, but w/e. :)

I'm reading now an old Polish forum (http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=en&sl=pl&u=http://forum.gazeta.pl/forum/w,28,57743828,,CIA_kontra_glupi_kaczyzm.html%3Fv%3 D2%26wv.x%3D1&prev=/search%3Fq%3Dpresident%2BKaczynski%2B%2522PETROTRA DE%2522%2Bputin%26hl%3Den%26prmd%3Div&rurl=translate.google.com&twu=1&usg=ALkJrhgvN_jurr9ywlL1AoYRsTG6UXySEA) via google translate (blech). The forum is quoting some stuff from STRATFOR. I read STRATFOR from time to time (free stuff and email alerts).

So according to this subscription STRATFOR piece from 2007, Kaczynski and his brother had dealings with and was about to go ahead on the release of intelligence asset names and such in the WSI report.

EASTERN EUROPEAN SECRET SERVICES CAUSED SMOLENSK PLANE CRASH, REPORTS POLSKAWEB *** KACZYNSKI WAS ABOUT TO PUBLISH LIST OF AGENTS ***… (http://stream.adamdodson.org/items/view/2486)

snip

Kaczynski’s report contained information on how WSI agents helped the Russian mafia get control of the country’s energy sector as well as the Germans to destroy the Polish coal industry by means of the use of a carbon cap and trade under the pretext of global warming. WSI agents Kwasniewski, Lech Walesa as well as Poland’s millionaires played a key role in bringing Tusk, Klich und Komorowski to power.

Putin and Tusk last week sealed a contract blocked by Kaczynski and worth a 100 million euros for Gazprom to deliver gas to Poland even though Poland has its own gas reserves.

Heh. Global warming conspiracy. Another reason they want cap-n-trade.

Kaczynski and his brother were trying to rid Poland of the Soviet corruption (I'll let another member bring up the 3 letter dirty word that gave birth to "Soviet"). I see now where Putin comes into this, being the RED BLOODED SOVIET that he is. Monaco, the initiative for this post in the first place, seems to be the money laundering center of this particular crime.

Yet again, freemasons, corrupt intel/military and usurious bankers/politicos are getting caught red handed in their shenanigans. Will anything come of this? I doubt Lech Kaczynski will equal Franz Ferdinand in the history books. But who knows...?

tl;dr:

Bankers/Royalty in Monaco (El Cartel/Illuminaughty/P2 Masons of Italian fame) caught in money laundering scandal involving Putin/Russia.

Polish pres assassination related to his attempted unveiling of Soviet agents (Putin plants) in Polish gov/intel and resistance to cap-n-trade.

Then the answer is a sort of yes. Do you folks recall the Roberto Calvi and the P2 Masonic Lodge Conspiracy (http://www.freemasonrywatch.org/stpeters_squared.html) bombshell?

I think a story of similar gravity is going to hit the news (relatively) soon.

MONACO: BANKERS OF DEATH (http://www.eringer33.com/2010/11/monaco-bankers-of-death.html)

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/__Ei_dKIFdx0/TOduH5FMpDI/AAAAAAAABuE/qmKB7b7X0SQ/s320/Merchant%2Bof%2B%2Bdeath.jpg

Little wonder the Russians are outraged over Viktor BOUT's extradition to the United States from Thailand to face the music for illegal arms dealing.

BOUT was working secretly for Russia's foreign intelligence service, the SVR, and the Russians are now petrified that BOUT will reveal all in a plea bargain to avoid a stiff prison sentence.

Pastor International, headquartered in Monaco and namesake to one of Monaco's most prominent families, was key to the money-laundering element of BOUT's illicit operations.

BOUT, and his Russian masters, relied on Monaco's confidential banking system as a safe haven from prying eyes.

Says Attorney General Eric HOLDER, "Mr. Bout will now appear in federal court in Manhattan to answer charges of conspiring to sell millions of dollars worth of weapons to a terrorist organization for use in trying to kill Americans."

HOLDER is talking of BOUT's offer to sell AK-47 firearms, ammunition, land mines, C-4 plastic explosives and other deadly weapons to the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), a terrorist organization.

It would not be the first time BOUT sold weapons to a terrorist organization bent on killing Americans.

In the late 1990s, a favorite BOUT client was the Taliban, which hosted al-Qaeda in Afghanistan.

Through his private airline Air Cess (we call it Air Cesspool), BOUT supplied the Taliban with an air fleet: five Soviet-made Antonuv 12s.

The Russian SVR operative BOUT also provided the Taliban with heavy artillery, Kalashnikov rifles, aerial bombs and BM-21 rocket batteries.

ERINGER: VIKTOR BOUT & MONACO (http://ERINGER: VIKTOR BOUT & MONACO)

Some of the profits from the illegal sale of these weapons were laundered through Pastor International in Monaco.

Between 1996 and 2001, the Russians passed $800 million through Pastor International, some of it benefitting the SVR's foreign operations, and some of it benefitting senior members of the Russian government. The money was laundered into real estate.

ERINGER: THE SPYMASTER OF MONTE CARLO 8: GOOD INTEL PREVAILS (http://www.eringer33.com/2010/03/monaco-intelligence-8-good-intelligence.html)

Pastor International was liquidated in June 2001, after a federal prosecutor in Belgium issued an arrest warrant alleging BOUT had laundered millions of dollars from illegal arms deals.

Pastor International and Monaco's banking system played a key role enabling the Taliban and al-Qaeda to become formidable terrorists.

Merchants of death cannot exist without obliging bankers.

THE MONACO-AUSCHWITZ CONNECTION (http://www.eringer33.com/2010/11/monaco-auschwitz-connection.html)


http://2.bp.blogspot.com/__Ei_dKIFdx0/TOMK7uauc3I/AAAAAAAABrU/SVlM8tp4fAQ/s320/goose%2BStep%2Brevised%2B1.jpg


Four years and eight months after Monaco created a commission to investigate spoilation of property suffered by victims of Monaco during World War II, the world still awaits news of its findings.

ERINGER: MONACO: ONE-WAY TICKET TO AUSCHWITZ, LEAVE YOUR MONEY WITH US (http://www.eringer33.com/2010/07/monaco-one-way-ticket-to-auschwitz.html)

The commission was created following adverse publicity from a lawsuit filed by Jean GEISMAR, a Belgian Jew whose relatives were deported from Monaco in 1944 and gassed to death at Auschwitz, the German extermination camp.

EJP | News | France | Monaco sued over WWII compensations (http://www.ejpress.org/article/5575)

It was the first such complaint filed against Monaco.

At the time, flatulent Minister of State Jean-Paul PROUST told GEISMAR that collaboration between Monaco and the Nazis could not be proven.

A memorial at the entrance of the Jewish section in Monaco's cemetery spells it out:

Between August 25-28, 1942, on orders of the Vichy Government, forty-two Jewish residents of Monaco were arrested and interned first at Beausoleil then barracks at Auvare in Nice.

They were handed over to the Gestapo, moved to Drancy, and trained to Auschwitz, where almost all perished.

Germans occupied Monaco from 9 September 1943 until 3 September 1944. During this period, forty-five Jews were arrested by the Gestsapo in Monaco.

They were interned at Hotel Excelsior in Nice, moved to Drancy, and all but one sent to Auschwitz, where almost all perished.

Eighty-two Jews deported from Monaco were murdered at Auschwitz.

How much more time does Monaco need to investigate spoilation of property, accept responsibility, and offer reparations to families whose relatives were deported, murdered, and had their fortunes stolen by persons in Monaco?
