Someone said we want a level playing field in trade, but in order to do that you need to know who the players are. It seems there is one unexpected player in the field of international trade and you really don't know who your friends and allys are
Palmer says green groups funded by CIA - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

It would take a month to strip away all the tin foil Clive Palmer has draped around his body. Since the organization is on a global war against Capitalism ;one could surmise that if there was any CIA activity related to them at all... it would be to disrupt their operations .

Perhaps you should read beyond the captions

"You only have to read the reports to US Congress when the CIA reported to the president that their role was to ensure the US competitive advantage and economic advantages.

"That's how you know it's funded by the CIA."

We don't wear tin foil hats here Tom we know the reality of american imperialism

When you post like that you sound like you live in a banana republic.

Well Tom we do grow bananas, very big bananas, but we also have many other pursuits which means I'll take my banana republic over yours any day. At least we are able to keep our financial affairs in order and not bully our neighbours too much. Palmer is a rich man with a big mouth but that doesn't make him wrong, in fact, it might make him well informed. I would say he is the Donald Trump of mining and like many ozzies he is prepared to call it as he sees it. We are in the middle of an election campaign in the state of Queensland and as the coal industry is dear to the heart of Queensland he is exercising his right to be heard

What evidence can he bring to the table besides his paranoid delusions ? I bet he thinks Bush ordered missiles fired at the Pentagon or the CIA set explosives at the WTC.
I have no use for idiots like him .

Tom you call him an idiot (any person who has made as much money as this bloke isn't an idiot) and malign him without evidence whereas he presents evidence that the Rockefeller Foundation is a CIA front organisation, and funds Greenpeace so we can see the dots being connected, couple that with the CIA's own stated objective

I thought their objective was to gather intelligence and conduct covert wars.

You see you haven't answered that one, just run away out on a tangent, well, I'm kicking it back into the infield

I wonder who he thinks is running the op... Maxwell Smart ?
Produce that report and the secret CIA budget he claims to have seen. This is just the ramblings of a lunatic.
There'd nothing here .

Well it seems Maxwell Smart was running the CiA for a while and I didn't hear he had resigned however no doubt Petraes will give him his marching orders. On another note Palmer apparently pulled out as speaker at an anti climate change rally and guess what? Clive is being sued

I expect they want to silence him before he brings forth more evidence

Waiting for the 1st bit of evidence besides secret budgets .

You want to know what Clive knows, ask Clive, I'm not doing your research for you
