For
bailed 1MDB defendant Roger Ng,
the crowd of photographers was
getting thinner as the trial ended
its second week. It was nothing
like the flotilla that had
accompanied even just the
prosecutors of R.Kelly, who was
never seen outside since he was
transported by the Marshals from
lock-up in Chicago to the MDC in
Brooklyn.
But then there are been Tom
Barrack.
Kurt had been there in the
summer of 2021, obligatory COVID
mask on, as photographers lined up
for this billionaire brought low,
lower than Jho Low.
Barrack and two others were
indicted for secret lobbying for
the United Arab Emirates, a
foreign influence scheme not
unlike those of today's bad-boy
Putin, but for the UAE run by
Crown Prince MBZ and, it had so
far been reported, the UAE
Ambassador to the US, Yousef
Al Otaiba.
But what about the UAE
Ambassador to the UN, Lana
Nusseibeh? She had been at the UN
since 2013, overlapping with Kurt
there for five years before he was
targeted and roughed up by Antonio
Guterres' guards and banned ever
since by Melissa Fleming.
And Nusseibeh, now being
portrayed by the UN's (and
Fleming's) press corps as some
sort of trailblazer, had worked
for the UAE's Ministry of Foreign
Affairs since 2009, and was now
Associate Foreign Minister.
What was her role in the
indicted crimes of Tom Barrack? As
in the case of CEFC China Energy's
Patrick Ho (who was jailed) and
his bribees Sam Kutesa and Antonio
Guterres (attempted), who were
not, those who ran Barrack like a
puppet had yet to be indicted. Or
had it just not been unsealed yet?
Oh but there was diplomatic
immunity, and the bipartisan
collusion with oil rich Gulf
States by both US political
parties. The UAE and their UN
Ambassador Lana Zaki Nusseibeh had
not put all of their eggs in the
Barrack basket.
The
UAE had hedged by having
Bill Clinton at a fundraiser, just
as now-in-China Jho Low had, along
with the Fugees' Pras, illegally
funneled money to the left, like
Jho Low to IRIN and the UN
Foundation ("only three million,"
they said they got, and deleted
the web page) and the UN itself.
So the UAE royals and
Nusseibeh had helped Jho Low rip
off Malaysians, and the UN and
affiliates now kept stolen money;
the UAE and Nusseibeh had paid
Barrack to secretly lobby and more
in the US.
Yet none of this was being
asked inside the UN of Nussbeibeh,
now the President of the UN
Security Council, abstaining on
Ukraine. This was corruption and
censorship. #TheWeaselOfWallStreet.
