  Subject: Syrian leader: Mideast talks only to help Obama
  TEHRAN (AP) - Syrian President Bashar Assad offered dim hopes Saturday for any success in Middle East peace talks,
  saying the White House is only using its mediation between Israelis and Palestinians to score political points in the
  United States. The comments by Assad during a one-day visit to Tehran followed talks with Iranian President Mahmoud
  Ahmadinejad. Both leaders pledged to support "resistance" in the region, an apparent reference to Palestinian militants
  and others opposing Israel.

  RAMALLAH (Reuters) - Israel must halt settlement building on occupied land if peace talks are to resume, a senior
  Palestine Liberation Official said after a meeting of the body's executive committee. "The leadership confirms that the
  resumption of talks requires tangible steps, the first of them a freeze on settlements," Yasser Abed Rabbo said after a
  meeting in Ramallah. "The Palestinian leadership holds Israel responsible for obstructing the negotiations," he added,
  reading a statement issued after the meeting.

  Palestinians Say Talks With Israel Should Be Suspended
  By ETHAN BRONNER
  New York Times
  RAMALLAH, West Bank — The Palestinian leadership said Saturday that four-week-old direct talks with Israel should be suspended as
  long as Jewish settlement housing was being built in the West Bank. It called on the international community to pressure Israel to stop
  the construction.
  A statement issued after a meeting of about 35 Palestinian leaders — the executive committee of the Palestine Liberation Organization,
  the central committee of the main Fatah movement and a handful of others — held at the compound of the Palestinian Authority
  president, Mahmoud Abbas, said that Israel was responsible for the deadlock.
  "The leadership confirms that the resumption of talks requires tangible steps, the first of them a freeze on settlements,"Yasser Abed
  Rabb°, a senior P.L.O. official said after the three-hour meeting. "The Palestinian leadership holds Israel responsible for obstructing the
  negotiations."
  The Obama administration envoy to the region, George J. Mitchell, met repeatedly in recent days with Mr. Abbas and Prime Minister
  Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel in hopes of keeping the new talks alive. But he left on Friday, having made no progress.
  Mr. Mitchell remains in the region, talking with Arab leaders before an Arab League meeting planned for next Friday in Libya, where
  the issue of direct talks with Israel will be debated and where, Mr. Abbas has said, a final decision on the future of the talks will be
  made.
  Barring a last-minute deal, the talks seemed to be in deep trouble.
  Mr. Abbas was due to see King Hussein of Jordan on Sunday and then Hosni Mubarak, the president of Egypt, as efforts continue to
  find a solution.

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771586 Date: 08/31/2015
  Israel halted most settlement construction for 10 months last November, saying it viewed the politically difficult step as a gesture to lure
  the Palestinians into direct peace talks. Mr. Abbas consented to the talks nine months later but threatened to abandon them if the freeze
  was lifted.
  Mr. Netanyahu argues that the future of the settlements should be part of a mix of issues to be discussed in the coming year of talks, not
  a precondition for talks. The Palestinians say the Israelis agreed to end settlement expansion in a 2003 road map for peace and have
  failed to live up to that commitment. They add that settlements violate international law and are eating up the land on which they plan
  to build their state.
  Mr. Netanyahu told his close aides on Friday that he would not freeze settlements further but would limit the building, according to an
  official briefed on that meeting.
  "Everyone knows that restrained and moderate building in Judea and Samaria in the coming year will not affect the peace map at all,"
  he said, according to the official, using the biblical term for the West Bank. "Therefore the international community must call on the
  Palestinians to stay in the peace talks. It is in the interest of the Palestinians, just as it is in ours."
  Since Mr. Abed Rabbo on Saturday also asked for assistance from the international community, it now appears that both sides, instead
  of talking to each other, have returned to making their cases to the world, hoping other governments will intercede on their behalf.
  The Obama administration has offered Israel security guarantees and military hardware in exchange for a one-time 6o-day extension of
  the building freeze. But so far Mr. Netanyahu has turned that down, saying that sticking to his word on a one-time freeze was more
  important than the elements of the American offer.
  The Palestinians say they, too, have concerns about credibility if they return to talks while settlement building resumes.
  Nabil Abu Rudeineh, a close aide to Mr. Abbas, said Saturday that Mr. Abbas had staked his credibility on ending negotiations if
  settlements began again. Asked how to assess the diplomacy of recent days, Mr. Abu Rudeineh said, "So far efforts have reached a dead
  end."

  Inside W.H., calls for shake-up
  By: Glenn Thrush
  November 3, 2010 10:30 AM EDT
  Some of the calls for a White House shake-up are now coming from inside the building.
  Frustrated current and former West Wing staffers, speaking on condition of anonymity,
  told POLITICO they hoped Tuesday night's humbling losses would persuade President
  Barack Obama to pursue a much more sweeping fix than just the "natural" post-election
  churn of personnel his administration has insisted will take place.
  Many of those changes are already being seriously considered, among them: replacing
  Political Director Patrick Gaspard with a former top aide to Rahm Emanuel; replacing
  deputy chief of staff Jim Messina, who is expected to move to Obama's 2012 campaign,
  with Legislative Affairs Director Phil Schiliro; and possibly giving White House energy czar
  Carol Browner expanded policy responsibilities.
  But if Obama's critics are focusing on his agenda and messaging, many on his team are
  urging him to address what they see as a major organizational flaw: an amorphous, ill-
  defined chain of command in the West Wing that concentrates too much power in too few
  hands, hampering efficiency, accountability and communication.
  "If there's still only five, 10 people making decisions, then we haven't learned our lesson
  from Tuesday," said one aide, who believes the problem starts with Obama's insistence
  on giving his senior advisers, Valerie Jarrett and David Axelrod, broadly sketched
  responsibilities.
  But the issue isn't confined to the upper levels. Several Obama insiders pointed to a
  surplus of West Wingers who spin out ideas by the bushel — and a shortage of seasoned
  middle managers to execute and sell them.
  "They've been here for two years; they need a more grown-up system," one former
  administration official said. "They've gone too horizontal."

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771607 Date: 08/31/2015
  Key Obama aides — including interim chief of staff Pete Rouse, who has been tasked with
  creating a new organizational plan, and press secretary Robert Gibbs, who is seeking to
  carve out a role beyond briefing reporters — have reportedly made that point directly to
  the president.
  But it's not clear whether Obama, who ordered Rouse to conduct an institutional review of
  the West Wing, is ready to scrap a loose, comfortable system that allowed him to respond
  quickly to multiple crises for a more conventional executive organization.
  No one expects Obama to immediately heed calls to conduct a major housecleaning — or
  inject fresh blood into the West Wing by bringing in outsiders or even a Republican or two,
  as former Sen. Tom Daschle, an Obama ally, has counseled.
  White House officials maintain they will make gradual changes — and hope that the arrival
  of Obama's organization-building 2008 campaign manager, David Plouffe, sometime in
  early 2011 will provide the West Wing with more focus.
  But Ken Duberstein, former chief of staff to President Ronald Reagan, said the White
  House needs to move much more quickly. "There's a window of six to nine months where
  serious governing can take place before people start looking at the [2012] primaries," he
  said
  Mike McCurry, President Bill Clinton's former press secretary, said Tuesday's results will
  usher in changes to Obama's day-to-day operations, whether he likes them or not.
  "President Clinton had to submit to a lot more discipline and structure in his daily
  schedule," said McCurry, who was an aide to then-Secretary of State Warren Christopher
  during the Democrats' devastating two-house loss in the 1994 midterms.
  We had "little calendars that had color codes on how [Clinton] was spending his time. ...
  Enjoying the solitude of the office is probably over [for Obama]," he added.
  Obama has had weeks to brace for the worst, unlike Clinton, who was blindsided by the
  '94 results. But some of Obama's allies fear he will take Tuesday's results too much in
  stride. That perception was fueled by Axelrod, who told a gathering of Democrats earlier
  this week that he didn't interpret Tuesday's expected debacle as a rejection of the
  president.
  "I'm not sure [Obama] gets it yet," said one person close to the president.
  But Rouse apparently does. In recent weeks, he has solicited advice and detailed memos
  from key administration players and allies outside the White House, especially former
  White House Communications Director Anita Dunn.
  The results, gleaned from insiders, are a range of plans to restructure Obama's policy,
  political, legislative affairs and communications operations.
  No final decisions have been made. But Rouse — a quiet, meticulous organizer who
  inherited a chaotic system designed on the fly by Emanuel after Emanuel left the White
  House to run for mayor of Chicago — is determined to clarify lines of authority and wants

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771607 Date: 08/31/2015
  to assign more specific job descriptions to senior staff.
  There are no plans to embark on a wholesale purge: The structural changes, if Obama
  signs off on them, are intended to dovetail with the anticipated departure of some
  personnel and reshuffling of a relatively small cast of Obama insiders.
  "It's a combination of two things: natural attrition and changes that want to be made,"
  another aide said. But "some people have done all they can here."
  And many of the biggest West Wing moves were preloaded before Nov. 2, in part to avoid
  the appearance of a mass exodus — including the departures of Emanuel, Office of
  Management and Budget Chief Peter Orszag (himself a critic of the White House
  management structure), Council of Economic Advisers Chairwoman Christina Romer and
  National Economic Council Chairman Larry Summers.
  Among the first post-election moves, according to people familiar with the planning, will be
  to move Gaspard, who has fallen out of favor, to another administration job or a position
  outside the White House.
  The top candidate to replace him is said to be veteran House Democratic staffer Sean
  Sweeney, who served as Emanuel's chief of staff.
  Messina, an Obama favorite who is said to be headed to Chicago next year with Axelrod
  to work on Obama's reelection effort, is likely to be replaced by Schiliro, though Schiliro
  won't inherit Messina's wide-ranging political portfolio.
  The legislative affairs office — a pre-midterm powerhouse that pushed through the
  stimulus, regulatory reform and health care bills — will most likely be downsized to reflect
  Obama's curtailed agenda on the Hill.
  But Schiliro, a former aide to Rep. Henry Waxman (D-Calif.), will pick 'up a crucial new
  assignment: In conjunction with White House counsel Bob Bauer, he's expected to defend
  Obama against an anticipated wave of GOP hearings and investigations spearheaded by
  the feared new chairman of the House Oversight Committee, California Rep. Darrell lssa.
  Less clear is what Rouse and Obama have in store for the policy team — a group that
  becomes much more important now that any meaningful legislative action is shut down by
  House Republicans and a shrunken Senate majority.
  In a flashback to the Clinton years, the administration will now be forced to rely on creative
  rule writing and new regulatory strategies to counter Republican obstruction on the Hill.
  Several people familiar with the situation said that Browner, one of the few Clinton
  administration veterans to earn the president's trust — is being considered for a newly
  envisioned policy job.
  Browner, known for her aggressive rule making when she was Environmental Protection
  Agency administrator, would supplant deputy chief of staff Mona Sutphen, who is
  expected to leave the administration sometime in 2011.
  Melody Barnes, director of Obama's Domestic Policy Council, is also expected to take on

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771607 Date: 08/31/2015
  a greater role.
  In the meantime, Rouse has quietly sought to change the culture inside the West Wing by
  enfranchising a wider circle of advisers than did Emanuel, who was prone to making spur-
  of-the-moment decisions consulting only a handful of trusted aides.
  The changes are small but significant. Emanuel made many of his decisions at his
  signature 7:30 a.m. meeting in the chief of staffs office — and often used a larger 8:30
  a.m. sit-down simply to issue marching orders.
  Rouse, by contrast, seems to put more weight on the later meeting because it gives more
  junior staff an opportunity to take part in decision making, insiders say.

  Subject: FM Kevin Rudd and Sec State Clinton/invitation to Rudd to speak at Oxy.
  Lauren/Cheryl,
  And--Please let Hillary know that I have invited Australian Foreign Minister Kevin Rudd to speak at Occidental
  in the coming year--on China or whatever topic he pleases. His chief of staff Philip Green has responded with
  some interest, and the Australian CG in LA is very excited to make it happen. Consulate here has invited me to
  speak at conference in January in LA on the US and Australia in Asia, and I have accepted (a good topic too if
  embassy Canberra wanted to invite me down as PD speaker). It would be helpful, if Hillary can work it in to her
  informal time with Rudd to mention me and Oxy in a favorable way and encourage him to accept the invitation
  to speak on our campus. I'd certainly appreciate it.
  Thanks as ever,
  Derek
  I just saw the news reports on the program that Hillary will be doing with young Australians in Melbourne o
  Sunday. Looks great. And perhaps she will get to meet my friend Glyn Davis, head of University of Melbourne
  on margins of event.

  This is not good news, but it is very helpful. Understandably there is an enormous amount of emotion around
  this. My view, which may not be heeded by the family and their supporters, is that a little patience would be
  helpful here to see what might happen back channel. Again, I really appreciate the time you are putting into
  this. In the big picture this is small potatoes, but of course to the family, it is everything. Howard

  Hi Cheryl,
  I thought you would be interested in this information which comes from a US Govt source outside the State
  Dept. Don't know if the Secretary was aware of the back channel discussions at the time she raised the case.
  Mubaralc apparently feels no one has responded to his wish list which may have something to do with turning
  over the kids into a visitation

  Gov-
  If you feel comfortable - there is one more piece of info we believe cheryl mills needs to have - and that is - the
  fact that mubarek is trying to do some horse trading regarding the return of the bower boys. Mubarek wants -
  health care in usa for himself, some chit w clintons in future, consideration on human rights bill, and
  consideration for his successor. I am not saying that USG has to give in on these. But I am saying that USG
  has to be aware that mubarek wants to solve our issue - but wants his requests to at least be acknowledged.
  Might you pass to cheryl? She is our only directly line to hrc at moment. We have made the bureaucrats aware
  - but its not making it up the food chain

  Netanyahu call points
  Background
  Quote from a readout of Netanyahu's meeting with senior advisers on Friday:
  "Everyone knows that restrained and moderate construction in Judea and Samaria in the next year will no even affect
  the peace process. Therefore the international community needs to call on the Palestinians to continue engaging in
  peace talks. It is in the interest of the Palestinians just as it is in ours"... "We did it [the moratorium] in order to give the
  opportunity to enter direct negotiations without preconditions. Now I expect that the Palestinians show their flexibility
  and continue with peace talks."..."Unfortunately, as opposed to us, the Palestinians are just hardening their stance."
  Quote from Yasser Abed Rabbo that Bibi may raise:
  "The leadership confirms that the resumption of talks requires tangible steps, the first of them a freeze on
  settlements. The Palestinian leadership holds Israel responsible for obstructing the negotiations."

  That is what Bower told me and indicated that Mubarak had mentioned those conditions to Sen. Kerry. Bower also said he
  has a back channel to M's chief of staff who reportedly said the same thing. Could well be someone making mischief.

  Subject: (AP) Peace talks come and go, but a settlement grows
  REVAVA (AP) - The American president was pushing hard for a Mideast peace agreement when six Jewish families
  arrived on this West Bank hilltop early one morning with cribs, refrigerators, Israeli flags and flatbed trucks carrying
  mobile homes.
  White House condemnation came quickly: "Settlements are an obstacle to peace and their continuation does not
  contribute to the development of a peace process which we have all been working toward."
  It was April 16, 1991.
  Since then peace talks have started, stopped, restarted, and now it's President Barack Obama's turn to feel frustrated.
  Last week Israel ended its temporary settlement freeze, Palestinians threatened to quit the talks Obama has brokered,
  and settlers were celebrating in Revava, where those first trailers have been replaced by red-roofed suburban homes
  and six families have become 250.
  The story is the same across the West Bank, where settlements have evolved from tenuous Jewish footholds into a
  massive presence across the hilly country which Israel captured in the 1967 war and which Palestinians want for their
  own state.
  They have grown steadily through years of international condemnation, diplomacy, periods of violence and
  negotiations. They have often expanded as a direct protest against negotiations and the possibility that an Israeli
  government might uproot them.
  In 1991, when the first Bush administration was coaxing Israelis and Palestinians to the negotiating table, 90,300
  Israelis lived in settlements across the West Bank. Today there are 300,000, and their population is growing by 5 percent
  a year, more than 2 1/2 times the growth rate inside Israel.
  The settlements themselves, ranging from small cities to isolated enclaves, take up just one percent of the area of the
  West Bank, according to government maps analyzed by Israeli human rights campaigners. But their impact is much
  greater than that number would suggest; the settlements and their access roads form a web of Israeli control that
  Palestinians say rules out any chance of viable statehood.
  Nowhere is the expansion, and its interplay with the politics of peacemaking, more apparent than at Revava.
  When those first families arrived on this rocky hill next to the Palestinian village of Kifl Hares, President George H. W.
  Bush's secretary of state, James Baker, was en route to Israel on a round of shuttle diplomacy.
  One settler leader, Daniella Weiss, told The Associated Press at the time that they had "hurried the decision" on
  Revava to undermine Baker's plans.
  Government permits had been issued and the land, settlers said, had been quietly purchased from local Palestinians.
  The Israeli government was led, as it is now, by the Likud Party, historically a champion of West Bank settlement,
  claiming the territory as part of the biblical Land of Israel promised by God and as indispensable to Israel's security.
  Some ministers in the government of then-prime minister Yitzhak Shamir reacted sourly to Revava's establishment;
  the government was trying to mollify the U.S. and appear receptive to peace while simultaneously settling Jews in the
  West Bank according to its own master plan. But the balancing act was becoming increasingly precarious.
  Israeli doves were furious about Revava. Lawmaker Yossi Sand likened it to "planting a bomb aboard (Baker's) plane in
  order to blow up his mission."
  The settlers were young couples raised in observant Jewish homes. Gideon and Miri Goldis arrived with boxes of

  possessions and three children under age 3. Nineteen years later, the family lives in a neat stucco home and have nine
  children.
  "I had the good fortune to come to a rocky, empty hilltop and start a Zionist settlement enterprise that my
  grandfather could only dream of. Suddenly there was another ZIP code in the post office and another place on the map,"
  Gideon Goldis said last week.
  "I don't know what Baker wanted, or what Obama wants now, or any other leader - these are secondary," he said.
  "What comes first is my people, their birthright and their security."
  Since the Goldises arrived, six Israeli prime ministers have held peace talks with the Palestinians. Some have officially
  restricted settlement construction. Through all of this, Revava has kept growing.
  Settlements sometimes went up with the intention of forestalling concessions and in response to international
  pressure, said Israeli writer Gershom Gorenberg, who has documented the history of the settlement movement.
  "The red-tiled houses on the hilltops remain as monuments to the fallen peace initiatives of the past," he said in an
  interview.
  Unlike the Likud leaders of two decades ago, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he accepts Palestinian
  statehood in at least part of the West Bank. But the Palestinian leadership sees settlement construction as the true
  litmus test of Israeli intentions, and insists the freeze must be maintained.
  The settlers see themselves as the aggrieved party, at odds with the Palestinians, the White House, and often their
  own government. At Revava's celebrations last week, a sign with Obama's picture referenced the controversy over the
  planned Islamic center near Ground Zero in Manhattan, saying: "If Islam can build anywhere, why can't I?"
  Gideon Goldis' father, Avraham, was a metallurgical engineer in Philadelphia before he immigrated to Israel. In 2000
  he followed his son to Revava.
  Beyond ideology, he said, he found a close-knit community 10 minutes' drive from central Israel. A house in Revava
  costs about $270,000, he said, a fraction of the price in Israel's center.
  "The Americans said, 'you're torpedoing our efforts," said Goldis, 73. "We say, 'we're coming to live in Israel, why
  can't we live wherever we want?"
  Two decades after Baker's trip, with a new push under way for a peace agreement that would require Israel to cede
  most or all of the West Bank, is Goldis concerned about Revava's future?
  "I'm not worried at all," he said.

  Subject: (Reuters) Pakistan to reopen Afghan route once security improves
  ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Pakistan will only re-open a supply route for coalition troops in Afghanistan once public anger
  over NATO incursions eases and security improves, the foreign ministry spokesman said October 3.
  Militants threatened more attacks on tankers carrying fuel to Afghanistan through routes in Pakistan to avenge the
  incursions.
  "Unless the reaction cools down and we make sure that the supply line is secured, we cannot reopen it," Foreign
  Ministry spokesman Abdul Basit told Reuters.
  Angered by repeated incursions by NATO helicopters over the past week, Pakistan blocked a supply route for NATO
  troops in Afghanistan after one such strike killed three Pakistani soldiers on September 30 in the northwestern Kurram
  region.

  I have not been able to get a psychology dinner set up, but I have found the article that you read on
  the difference an apology can make in the Middle East (coming in next email) and commissioned a
  useful paper from Louise Diamond, an expert on psychology and negotiations who has done a lot
  of work between the Israels and the Palestinians herself (attached). It's about 5 pages; I really think
  it is worth a read. Finally, on changing the frame to look forward, I strongly recommend that you
  spend 8 minutes to look at a video produced by a Rand study called The Arc, which proposes a
  high-speed road/rail project connecting the key cities in the West Bank and Gaza. It is a powerful,
  powerful vision of what could be, one that will play right into Bibi's emphasis on economic growth.
  For my money, it would be worth a private 8 minutes screening. I will send the link in the next

  For your Sunday reading, a summary of an interesting proposal by former Jordanian foreign minister Marwan Muasher.
  "Palestinian-Israeli Direct Talks: The Case for a Regional Approach"By Marwan Muasher (Carnegie Endowment Bulletin,
  August 2010)
  Marwan Muasher – former Jordanian foreign minister, ambassador, and deputy prime minister – advocates a regional
  settlement to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, capitalizing on the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative. His approach depends first
  on securing end-game "deposits" from all parties: The parties would offer hypothetical commitments that they might
  not be willing to give at the onset, but that can be "deposited" with the U.S. and committed to only if the other side is
  willing to do the same. Saudi Arabia's deposit, for instance, would outline and agree to a package that included details
  about Jerusalem. The Saudi package would also promise to secure Arab and Muslim backing for the painful compromises
  the Palestinians would need to accept.
  Muasher advocates a similar approach to the Syrian track—asking Syria to deposit end-game commitments in return for
  full Israeli withdrawal from the Golan Heights. In their deposits, the Saudis and the Syrians must clearly commit to
  address the inclusion of Hamas and Hezbollah in any regional agreement. The Arab states would not only have to end all
  logistical, financial, and military support for these two groups, but they would have to assume responsibility for
  delivering these two actors, helping to transform them into political players. Israel's deposit would spell out its
  commitment to a solution based on 1967 borders and a return of the Golan.
  According to Muasher, these deposits would make it much easier for President Abbas to engage in talks aimed at ending
  the conflict. After he has been given Arab cover, Abbas could provide his own end-game deposits. According to
  Muasher, absent these commitments from the Arab states, the Palestinian positions will remain maximalist. Once the
  U.S. has deposits from all sides that make for a reasonable, comprehensive package, it should put this package on the
  table in cooperation with the Quartet. Once the comprehensive package is presented, the U.S. can focus on confidence-
  building measures to move all sides toward the end game.

  I'm sending 2 emails today b/c I didn't send one yesterday. :-)
  Attached is a one-pager fleshing out how we could launch a Pledge for Palestine based on the Warren Buffett model. If
  we were to do this, we could start with which includes, in addition to
  One way to go would be to ask everyone to make
  conditional commitments contingent on raising a big enough sum to give the fund real impact. We also have great
  contacts with a group of young Arab business leaders -- I spoke to them last year and cd quickly reach out to their chair.
  We are getting details from Rand about the full cost of The ARC project.

  More on Patterns in Intractable Conflicts
  By Louise Diamond, Ph.D.
  In deep-rooted, intractable conflicts, the parties often develop unconscious patterns
  of behavior that impede the peace process.
  We know that all behavior is purposeful. We also know that human beings are not
  necessarily rational actors; they, do not always act in their own best interest.
  Sometimes the unconscious purpose of these patterns, therefore, is counter-
  intuitive: to maintain the status quo, even if it is painful, because we're scared of the
  unknown, or of giving up something we think we now have. Or the purpose might
  be to make things worse for the other side, even if it hurts us more; or to seek our
  own gain, even when we can see that by doing so we actually hurt ourselves further.
  We can identify the purpose or goals behind these patterns by seeing their results.
  Because they are unconscious, and deeply entrenched over time, the patterns are
  especially hard to change. They are also mutual - that is, there is some collusion or
  mutuality between the parties that keeps the pattern going (again, unconsciously).
  There will be resistance to changing the behavior; the patterns have developed
  because the parties somehow believed they served their interests.
  The mediators can help change the patterns in five general ways, all intended as
  non-confrontational and non-judgmental, and as ways to invite awareness and to
  present a possible pathway to different behavior:
  1. Educate the parties briefly about the pattern - describe how it works.
  "What's happening now is a repetitive pattern; this is how it works.... Do you
  recognize this?"
  2. Name the pattern when you see it happening. "Oh, this is the X pattern
  again. Does it feel familiar? How can we do something different?"
  3. Acknowledge the universality of the pattern. "This is not unique to you; it
  is common in most conflicts. Even in most families!"
  4. Interrupt the behavior -turn to something else (general rule of thumb:
  shift between content, process, and psychology when any one piece is not
  going well). "We seem to be stuck in the X pattern again. Let's move on to Y
  and see if we can get some fresh thinking."
  5. Enlarge the frame; re-focus attention on the main priority: a successful
  peace process. "This is that X pattern again, and it's not useful in moving the
  process forward."
  Specific suggestions will also be given for each pattern.
  The Blame Game. This pattern can be tricky. There's a difference between stating
  a fact and playing the Blame Game. The PLO really did launch terrorist attacks
  1

  against Israel. Israel really does take Palestinian land for settlements. To state the
  facts is not to play the Blame Game. It becomes a game when it has other motives:
  • To avoid taking responsibility for one's own contribution to the conflict;
  • To avoid responsibility for finding a solution because one prefers the status
  quo;
  • To look good in the eyes of the third party or international community, while
  making the other side look bad; to identify the other side as the primary
  roadblock to progress.
  Some behaviors that characterize this game:
  • One party sets impossible conditions or ultimatums that they know won't be
  accepted by the other side, and then blames the other side for not being a
  true partner for peace, or not being sincere about wanting a solution. ('Aha!
  See, we told you it was their fault!)
  • One party excuses its bad behavior by saying, essentially, 'if the other side
  hadn't done that, we wouldn't have had to do what we did.' (`They made us
  do it!')
  • The parties trade blame, like children. (it' your fault! No, it's your fault;' You
  started it! Did not! Did son
  What might the mediators say?
  • When the parties get into blaming ("See, they did x,y, and z...!"), say, "No one
  action stands by itself; we're always reacting to each other. So what did your
  side do that might have contributed to this?"
  • Or, "Yes, that really happened. Now we're looking at what we can do
  differently, or how we can make some agreements so that that doesn't
  happen again."
  The Drama Triangle. This pattern is very familiar to us because it is central to
  much of our literature and drama (especially melodrama). There are three
  archetypal roles - victim, persecutor, and rescuer (the Villain, who seeks to harm
  the Innocent, and the Hero, who tries to save the day). In deep-rooted conflicts,
  what often happens is that the parties in conflict plus the third party will shift who's
  playing what role at any one time.
  The goal of the pattern:
  • To avoid making progress toward peace.
  • To stay in familiar territory and not have to take risks with new behavior.
  Some behaviors that characterize the game:
  • One party will play the role of victim, another of persecutor, and the other
  (often the third party) of rescuer, there to help 'fix' or solve the situation.
  • Then, something will happen and the roles will change. The one who was the
  victim will become the persecutor (or rescuer); the previous persecutor will
  2
  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771634 Date: 08/31/2015

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771634 Date: 08/31/2015
  now be the rescuer (or victim); and the previous rescuer will become the
  new victim (persecutor).
  • The parties will cycle through these different roles at different times, never
  really making any progress.
  • Examples: When Israel announced new settlement development during Vice
  President Biden's visit, the rescuer (the U.S.) became the victim, and the
  victim (Israel) became the persecutor. When Israel boarded the Rachel
  Corrie headed for Gaza, they were seeing themselves as victims and the
  blockade breakers as the persecutors, but when several of the ship's people
  were killed, the Israeli's were seen as the persecutors. The Palestinians see
  the Israelis as persecutors in the settlement issue, while they are the victims,
  but when the US spoke strongly for a settlement freeze, it became the
  persecutor and Israel became the victim.
  • It is common for the parties to unconsciously collude so that the third party,
  the rescuer, gets blamed for lack of progress or even for making things
  worse, thus joining together as persecutors against a new victim.
  What can the mediators do?
  • Notice when you're playing an unhealthy 'rescuer' role: for instance, when
  you feel compelled to find the fix to a tough issue rather than helping the
  parties to do it, or when you want the solution more than the parties do.
  Choose to put the responsibility back on the parties.
  • When noticing the cycle in action, say, for instance, 'Oh, we seem to be caught
  in that drama triangle again. There are no villains, victims, or rescuers here -
  we've all contributed to the problems in different ways and we're all working
  toward the same goal, a successful peace process.'
  The Demonization and De-humanization of 'the Other.' In this pattern one side
  portrays the other side as less than human; as barbarians, uncultured, not
  intelligent, etc; not like `us;' incapable of feeling, thinking, or acting as 'we' do (i.e., as
  Inormar- human beings). The other side is demonized, seen as the embodiment of all
  evil and at fault for the conflict. 'We' are the all good and 'they' are the all bad.
  This pattern may not appear so obviously in the peace talks, as the negotiators are
  probably individuals who have had more extensive experience with their
  counterparts than most average citizens. However, this pattern is more likely than
  others to be consciously manipulated by political leaders, to be firmly ensconced in
  the educational system, and to be a staple of the media.
  The purpose of this pattern.
  • It shields the parties from hearing each other's legitimate needs and
  interests, and especially their pain. If 'they' are not as fully human as 'we'
  are, then what 'they' want doesn't count, or what 'they' feel can be dismissed
  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771634 Date: 08/31/2015

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771634 Date: 08/31/2015
  as inconsequential. If we don't have to acknowledge 'their' pain, we don't
  have to feel responsible for it, feel empathy for them, or do anything about it.
  • It allows each side to justify its own violent acts against the other. If 'they'
  don't value life like 'we' do, then 'they' don't mind as much when we take
  their life.
  • It socializes society into sustaining the story of `us' against 'them' and the
  enemy image.
  What the mediators can do.
  • Be alert for it - it can be very subtle.
  • Call it whenever you see it, as you would a racial slur. "That's a demeaning of
  a whole people." "We're here to acknowledge our common humanity and
  shared hopes for a better future." "We all have the same capacity for...
  intelligence, pain, caring about our families. (whenever it happens to be).
  • Provide opportunities for re-humanizing through personal contact (eating,
  seating, free time, sub-group dialogue opportunities).
  The Suffering Yardstick. This is the most difficult pattern to interrupt, because the
  parties tend to be very attached to their suffering. It has become, over time, a major
  part of their identity. The trick is to acknowledge the suffering, but disallow the
  measuring of one party's suffering over the other. All human beings suffer in the
  face of violence, displacement, humiliation, etc. Each human being's suffering is
  awful to them.
  In the Israeli-Palestinian situation this is huge. The Holocaust is seen, and in many
  ways legitimately so, as of a much greater magnitude and significance than the
  Nakba. Yet the historical and daily suffering of the Palestinians must be
  acknowledged as legitimate and important too. The trauma on both sides is a major
  element that undermines the possibility of a negotiated settlement of concrete
  issues. These are not rational actors seeking a rational solution - they are deeply
  wounded parties living in collective pain that they blame on each other.
  Behaviors that characterize the pattern.
  • One side argues that their suffering is bigger, stronger, and more worthy of
  sympathy than that of the other side. (In this case, usually Israel)
  • One side gets angry that the suffering of the other should be compared to
  theirs, seen as equal or parallel. (In this case, usually Israel)
  • One side diminishes or demeans or disallows the expression of suffering by
  the other.
  What can the mediators say?
  • "Everyone is suffering, and has been for a long time in this situation. This is
  our opportunity to put a stop to it, and, when we're ready, to start the healing
  process."

  • "It may seem like the pain is disproportionate in numbers, but let's
  remember that for each person who's lost a family member or a home or a
  hope, the pain is the same."
  • "It is true that there are unrightable wrongs on both sides here. It's
  important to acknowledge that and grieve. We cannot go back and re-write
  history, but we can feel each other's pain in the present, and create a
  different future for our children." Or feel each other's pain in the
  present, and decide together to break the cycle here and now."
  In sum, there are potent psycho/social/political patterns at play in the unconscious
  dynamics of intractable conflicts, which can present major roadblocks to a
  successful peace negotiation. Awareness is the first step to change. The more the
  mediators are aware of these patterns, and can help the parties notice them as well,
  the better equipped everyone is, together, to break out of well-traveled ruts and
  discover new possibilities.

  Subject: If bilateral talks fail, a regional approach
  For your Sunday reading, a summary of an interesting proposal by former Jordanian foreign minister Marwan Muasher.
  "Palestinian-Israeli Direct Talks: The Case for a Regional Approach"By Marwan Muasher (Carnegie Endowment Bulletin,
  August 2010)
  Marwan Muasher – former Jordanian foreign minister, ambassador, and deputy prime minister – advocates a regional
  settlement to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, capitalizing on the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative. His approach depends first
  on securing end-game "deposits" from all parties: The parties would offer hypothetical commitments that they might
  not be willing to give at the onset, but that can be "deposited" with the U.S. and committed to only if the other side is
  willing to do the same. Saudi Arabia's deposit, for instance, would outline and agree to a package that included details
  about Jerusalem. The Saudi package would also promise to secure Arab and Muslim backing for the painful compromises
  the Palestinians would need to accept.
  Muasher advocates a similar approach to the Syrian track—asking Syria to deposit end-game commitments in return for
  full Israeli withdrawal from the Golan Heights. In their deposits, the Saudis and the Syrians must clearly commit to
  address the inclusion of Hamas and Hezbollah in any regional agreement. The Arab states would not only have to end all
  logistical, financial, and military support for these two groups, but they would have to assume responsibility for
  delivering these two actors, helping to transform them into political players. Israel's deposit would spell out its
  commitment to a solution based on 1967 borders and a return of the Golan.
  According to Muasher, these deposits would make it much easier for President Abbas to engage in talks aimed at ending
  the conflict. After he has been given Arab cover, Abbas could provide his own end-game deposits. According to
  Muasher, absent these commitments from the Arab states, the Palestinian positions will remain maximalist. Once the
  U.S. has deposits from all sides that make for a reasonable, comprehensive package, it should put this package on the
  table in cooperation with the Quartet. Once the comprehensive package is presented, the U.S. can focus on confidence-
  building measures to move all sides toward the end game.

  CYRUS
  NOW PLAYING
  As diplomats stitch together a cease-fire between Hamas and Israel, the most depressing feature of
  the conflict is the sense that future fighting is inevitable. Rational calculation suggests that neither
  side can win these wars. The thousands of lives and billions of dollars sacrificed in fighting
  demonstrate the advantages of peace and coexistence, yet still both sides opt to fight.
  This small territory is the world's great symbolic knot. "Palestine is the mother of all problems" is a
  common refrain among people we have interviewed across the Muslim world: from Middle
  Eastern leaders to fighters in the remote island jungles of Indonesia; from Islamist senators in
  Pakistan to volunteers for martyrdom on the move from Morocco to Iraq.
  Some analysts see this as a testament to the essentially religious nature of the conflict. But research
  we recently undertook suggests a way to go beyond that. For there is a moral logic to seemingly
  intractable religious and cultural disputes. These conflicts cannot be reduced to secular
  calculations of interest but must be dealt with on their own terms, a logic very different from the
  marketplace or realpolitik.
  Across the world, people believe that devotion to sacred or core values that incorporate moral
  beliefs - like the welfare of family and country, or commitment to religion and honor - are, or
  ought to be, absolute and inviolable. Our studies, carried out with the support of the National
  Science Foundation and the Defense Department, suggest that people will reject material
  compensation for dropping their commitment to sacred values and will defend those values
  regardless of the costs.
  In our research, we surveyed nearly 4,000 Palestinians and Israelis from 2004 to 2008,
  questioning citizens across the political spectrum including refugees, supporters of Hamas and
  Israeli settlers in the West Bank. We asked them to react to hypothetical but realistic compromises
  in which their side would be required to give away something it valued in return for a lasting
  peace.
  All those surveyed responded to the same set of deals. First they would be given a straight-up offer
  in which each side would make difficult concessions in exchange for peace, next they were given a
  scenario in which their side was granted an additional material incentive, and last came a proposal
  in which the other side agreed to a symbolic sacrifice of one of its sacred values.
  For example, a typical set of trade-offs offered to a Palestinian might begin with this premise:
  Suppose the UN organized a peace treaty between Israel and the Palestinians under which

  Palestinians would be required to give up their right to return to their homes in Israel and there
  would be two states, a Jewish state of Israel and a Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza.
  Second, we would sweeten the pot: In return, Western nations would give the Palestinian state $10
  billion a year for loo years. Then the symbolic concession: For its part, Israel would officially
  apologize for the displacement of civilians in the 1948 war.
  Almost everyone we surveyed rejected the initial solutions we offered - ideas that are accepted as
  common sense among most Westerners, like simply trading land for peace or accepting shared
  sovereignty over Jerusalem. Why the opposition?
  Many of the respondents insisted that the values involved were sacred to them. For example,
  nearly half the Israeli settlers we surveyed said they would not consider trading any land in the
  West Bank - territory they believe was granted them by God - in exchange for peace. More than
  half the Palestinians considered full sovereignty over Jerusalem in the same light, and more than
  four-fifths felt that the "right of return" was a sacred value, too.
  In general the greater the monetary incentive involved in the deal, the greater the disgust from
  respondents. This strongly implies that using the standard approaches of "businesslike
  negotiations" favored by Western diplomats will only backfire.
  Many Westerners seem to ignore these clearly expressed "irrational" preferences, because in a
  sensible world they ought not to exist. Diplomats hope that peace and progress on material and
  quality-of-life matters will eventually make people forget the more heartfelt issues. But this is only
  a recipe for another Hundred Years' War - progress on everyday material matters will simply
  heighten attention on value-laden issues of "who we are and want to be."
  Fortunately, our work also offers hints of another, more optimistic course.
  Absolutists who violently rejected offers of money or peace for sacred land were considerably
  more inclined to accept deals that involved their enemies making symbolic but difficult gestures.
  For example, Palestinian hard-liners were more willing to consider recognizing the right of Israel
  to exist if the Israelis simply offered an official apology for Palestinian suffering in the 1948 war.
  Similarly, Israeli respondents said they could live with a partition of Jerusalem and borders very
  close to those that existed before the 1967 war if Hamas and the other major Palestinian groups
  explicitly recognized Israel's right to exist.
  Remarkably, our survey results were mirrored by our discussions with political leaders from both
  sides. For example, Mousa Abu Marzook (the deputy chairman of Hamas) said no when we
  proposed a trade-off for peace without granting a right of return. He became angry when we added
  in the idea of substantial American aid for rebuilding: "No, we do not sell ourselves for any
  amount."

  But when we mentioned a potential Israeli apology for 1948, he brightened: "Yes, an apology is
  important, as a beginning. It's not enough, because our houses and land were taken away from us,
  and something has to be done about that." This suggested that progress on values might open the
  way for negotiations on material issues.
  We got a similar reaction from Benjamin Netanyahu, the hard-line former Israeli prime minister.
  We asked him whether he would seriously consider accepting a two-state solution following the
  1967 borders if all major Palestinian factions, including Hamas, were to recognize the right of the
  Jewish people to an independent state. He answered, "O.K., but the Palestinians would have to
  show that they sincerely mean it, change their textbooks and anti-Semitic characterizations."
  Making these sorts of wholly intangible "symbolic" concessions, like an apology or recognition of a
  right to exist, simply doesn't compute on any utilitarian calculus. And yet the science says they may
  be the best way to start cutting the knot.

  Ms. Slaughter,
  Again, great talk today at the CNAS annual event. Thanks for your time.
  As you will remember, I raised the point that we seem not to be engaging
  regimes or populations regarding affirmative visions of what their
  societies
  could achieve in (say) a decade, if only we invested in a certain
  development strategy.
  Clearly, you had once heard about the RAND Corporation's Arc Concept
  (perhaps from Steve Simon?), for a national infrastructure trunkline for

  a
  future Palestinian State. To regain familiarity, please watch the 8
  minute
  video on the home page of www.friendsofthearc.org which provides a great
  overview of the Arc vision, and its potential for enabling peace in the
  region. This is an affirmative vision that sells very well to both
  Palestinians, Israelis and American Jews and Palestinians. I would be
  happy
  to prove this. Just imagine if the US came out in support of this
  vision.
  If President Obama simply said something like "The Arc is a great
  example of
  a transformational idea which did not originate from American
  politicians or
  diplomats, but rather from innovative American minds in collaboration
  with
  stakeholders from all walks of life in Palestine, Israel, the US,
  Europe,
  and the Muslim world. It's the kind of initiative that I am happy to
  endorse, and I look forward to better understanding how, through the
  Arc,
  America can make a positive contributions to peace, prosperity and
  security
  in the region." - some very interesting things would happen. For
  example,
  the PIF and other forms of private finance might just finance the whole
  thing...not requiring any (or at least much) US $.
  You don't know me from Adam, but lets just say that I can say with
  confidence that PM Fayyad backs the Arc as a key part of his two year
  plan
  for statehood, and that Abu Mazen's economic advisor (Dr. Mohammad
  Mustafa -
  CEO of the PIF) does also. And, that President Peres has been a long
  time
  supporter (I have the letter on my computer). I happen to know that
  Zbigniew Brzezinski will soon be taking a package to NSA Jones on the
  topic.
  Zbig is a huge fan, as are many others from the establishment. If we
  met
  for 15 minutes, I could explain the nature of the collective action
  problem
  that has prevented many Arc fans from speaking up, and I could explain
  how I
  am fixing this problem.
  This is a concrete engagement strategy that would not cost the President
  political capital, but would actually manufacture political capital.
  If you are willing to talk for 15-20 minutes, I would be happy to run up
  to
  Foggy Bottom to brief you up on the Arc, and where I plan to take it

  NEW YORK (AP) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says "the future belongs to Iran," and challenged the United
  States to accept that his country has a major role in the world. The comment came in an hour-long interview with The
  Associated Press on the first day of his visit to the United States to attend the annual General Assembly at the United
  Nations. He restated that his government does not want an atomic bomb and is only seeking peace and a nuclear-free
  world. He gave no indication when Iran would resume talks on its nuclear program and said any anti-nuclear sanctions
  against his government would have no effect on his government's policies. Appearing calm and self-assured, he said he
  was pleased by the release of American hiker Sarah Shourd.

  It's fair for smaller countries to turn to international conventions
  MINISTER Mentor Lee Kuan Yew supports the use of international conventions to solve border disputes, especially when
  the countries involved are not of equal standing.
  By way of illustration, he said it was "fair" for smaller countries like Vietnam to resolve disputes with China using
  conventions like Unclos —the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.
  He made the point at a dialogue of the Russia-Singapore Business Forum yesterday, when he was asked by former
  Japanese senator Kotaro Tamura to comment on the ongoing China-Japan dispute.
  Mr Tamura, in his question, made his feelings clear, describing China as a "teenager" in its handling of the situation.
  Adding that China was also pushing around other countries like those in South-east Asia, he asked if it was a good idea
  for countries with potential border problems to team up and take China into a multilateral negotiation.
  Mr Lee, in his response, noted that multiparty negotiations had been proposed by United States Secretary of State
  Hillary Clinton in a visit to Vietnam this July.
  But Mrs Clinton's statement had upset China, he added.
  Mr Lee said: "It was a really quiet statement but I think it also drew a line, a red line which will not make the Chinese
  very happy.
  "As you can see its foreign minister says it's none of America's business, it is a bilateral matter with the Philippines, with
  Brunei, with Vietnam."
  The three South-east Asian countries, China and some others have all laid claim — either in whole or in part — to the
  Spratly Islands in the South China Sea.
  But any bilateral negotiation with China is unlikely to be a fair fight, he said.
  "So if you deal with China, and Vietnam with 100 million (people) and they've got 1,300 million, where is your punching
  power?" he asked.
  He cited a 2008 dispute over a deal Vietnam made with US oil giant ExxonMobil to do oil exploration in contested
  waters.
  "The Chinese told ExxonMobil: 'Move on or you'll get no business from China.' So ExxonMobil moved on," he said. That
  is why, he said, a multilateral, Unclos- based solution was just.
  He stressed that negotiations needed to be based on internationally accepted rules.
  Mrs Clinton, he said, probably did not act independently when making the statement in Hanoi and would have consulted
  her country's national security lobby and even the president.

  He said the US policy made it clear that territorial claims were more complex than producing a map with dotted lines
  and saying: "All this is mine".
  "I mean who produces this map? What is the authenticity of this map? Who kept it? And even if you can prove its
  antiquity, what does it show?
  "It shows that at that time these countries were not independent and (were) under French, American or British or other
  rule and so they could not object.
  "But now they're independent and they're entitled to protest. It's within their EEZ (exclusive economic zone); it's within
  their territorial waters,"
  he said.
  Mr Lee said the points made by the US in Hanoi draw an "important line against bilateral dealings which are unequal".
  He also spoke on Japan's current spat with China, the worst between the two countries in years, which was sparked
  earlier this month when Japan detained a Chinese ship captain following a sea collision near the disputed Senkaku
  islands.
  Japan, however, released the captain on Saturday.
  Mr Lee felt that moving to settle the dispute was probably the right thing to do.
  He said: "Supposing he (Japanese PM Naoto Kan) decided to do otherwise, then what? Then the Senkaku islands will
  become a dispute. Then they will send their navy there. Then you will send your navy there.
  "And normally (you) have better ships than they have. But they will build an aircraft carrier. So in 10 years they have a
  bigger fleet than you have, so you have to factor that into your calculation.
  "These are the realities of power."

  Subject: (AP) Interview: Ahmadinejad says future is Iran's- added quotes
  NEW YORK (AP) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said "the future belongs to Iran," and challenged the United
  States to accept that his country has a major role in the world. The comments came in an hour-long interview with The
  Associated Press on the first day of his visit to the United States to attend the annual general assembly of the United
  Nations this week. He insisted that his government does not want an atomic bomb- something he has said in the past-
  and that Iran is only seeking peace and a nuclear-free world. He gave no indication of when Iran would resume talks on
  its nuclear program and said any anti-nuclear sanctions against his government would have no effect on his
  government's policies. Appearing calm and self-assured, the Iranian president said he was pleased about the release of
  American hiker Sarah Shourd from a prison in Tehran, but said her two companions still in prison would have to prove
  their innocence on charges that they illegally crossed into the country. "The United States' administrations.., must
  recognize that Iran is a big power," he said. "Having said that, we consider ourselves to be a human force and a cultural
  power and hence a friend of other nations. We have never sought to dominate others or to violate the rights of any
  other country. "Those who insist on having hostilities with us, kill and destroy the option of friendship of us in the
  future, which is unfortunate because it is clear the future belongs to Iran and that enmities will be fruitless- and hence
  sanctions, too, will be ineffective." He added: "If they were to be effective, I should not be sitting here right
  now." Ahmadinejad asserted that international nuclear regulators had never found proof that Iran is pursuing an atomic
  bomb. "We are not afraid of nuclear weapons. The point is that if we had in fact wanted to build a nuclear bomb, we
  are brave enough to say that we want it. But we never do that. We are saying that the arsenal of nuclear bombs
  (worldwide) have to be destroyed as well," he said. The U.S. accuses Iran of hiding plans to build a nuclear bomb; Iran
  denies that and says it's working only toward building nuclear power plants. On the case of the American hikers,
  Ahmadinejad said, "We're very glad that that lady was released. (Due) to the humanitarian perspective of the Islamic
  Republic chose to adopt on the subject, she was released on bail. And we hope that the other two will soon be able to
  prove and provide evidence to the court that they had no ill intention in crossing the border, so that their release can
  also be secured." Tying the case to Iran's assertion that some of its citizens are being held unjustly in the United States,
  he said, "It certainly does not give us joy when we see people in prison, wherever in the world that may be, and even
  when we think of prisoners here." His answers were translated from Farsi by an Iranian translator, but Ahmadinejad
  appeared to be following the questions in English and occasionally corrected his interpreter. Asked about retired FBI
  employee Robert Levinson, who disappeared during a trip to Iran in 2007, Ahmadinejad appeared to suggest that he
  may have been Iran for suspicious reasons. "The U.S. government had informed us of this situation and we announced
  that we are unaware of it. We agreed to establish a joint information committee to trace... his whereabouts. "Of course
  if it becomes clear what his goal was, or if he was indeed on a mission, then perhaps specific assistance can be given,"
  the Iranian said. "For example, if he had plans to visit with a group or an individual or go to another country, he would
  be easier to trace in that instance." Levinson was last seen on Iran's Kish island in March 2007 where he had gone to
  seek information on cigarette smuggling for a client of his security firm. He had been an FBI agent in New York and
  Florida before retiring in 1998. He has not been seen since. Iran says it has no information on him.

  Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany. The prosecutors say in a statement those targeted in the sweeps were
  suspected of planning a possible attack in Belgium. Others were suspected recruiters for an alleged Chechen terror
  organization. Ten homes were searched in the three nations, and 10 suspects of Belgian, Dutch, Moroccan or Russian
  nationality were detained. The statement said that investigation had previously already led to arrests in Spain, Morocco

  Effort for Liberal Balance to G.O.P. Groups
  Begins
  By MICHAEL LUO
  In what may prove a significant development for the 2012 elections, David Brock, a prominent Democratic political
  operative, says he has amassed $4 million in pledges over the last few weeks and is moving quickly to hire a staff to set
  up what he hopes will become a permanent liberal counterweight over the airwaves to the Republican-leaning outside
  groups that spent so heavily on this year's midterm elections.
  Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, a former Maryland lieutenant governor and the eldest of Robert F. Kennedy's 11 children,
  has agreed to serve as the chairwoman of the group, which will be called American Bridge, lending to the still extremely
  nascent undertaking the weight of what remains one of the most significant families in Democratic politics.
  Leading Democratic donors who have already pledged money to the group include Rob McKay, heir to the Taco Bell
  fortune and chairman of the Democracy Alliance, a partnership of wealthy liberal donors; Robert Dyson, who heads
  Dyson-Kissner-Moran, a takeover and acquisitions firm in New York City; and Marcia L. Carsey, a television producer who
  gave $1 million to Democratic outside groups in 2004.
  Mr. Brock said in an interview that he planned to formally file papers with the Federal Election Commission on Tuesday to
  set up American Bridge as what is known as an independent-expenditure-only political action committee, meaning it will
  be able to take in contributions of unlimited size from individuals and corporations but must regularly disclose its donors.
  Certain to set off debate, however, is that Mr. Brock appears to be positioning his new organization so that fund-raising
  consultants can raise money for Democratic-oriented media efforts not just through American Bridge but also via one of
  the nonprofit organizations Mr. Brock currently runs, Media Matters Action Network, which does not disclose its donors.
  The action network, which tracks conservative politicians and advocacy organizations, is organized as a 501(c)(4)
  nonprofit group and is set to take on an expanded role in the 2012 elections, including potentially running television ads,
  according to an internal draft concept paper about American Bridge's and Media Matter Action Network's plans obtained
  by The New York Times.
  Mr. Brock said that "money is money," and that he would actively solicit donors for both entities and, in the end, the media
  spending would be apportioned accordingly.
  The moves by Mr. Brock in recent weeks make his the most concrete effort so far on the part of Democratic activists to
  establish some kind of centralized structure that they hope will become the left's answer in 2012 to such groups on the
  right as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, American Crossroads and others, which significantly outspent Democratic-
  leaning outside groups this year. It is too early to say whether Mr. Brock's group will emerge as the go-to vehicle for giant
  contributions on the left.
  Mr. Brock led a much-heralded independent group in the 2008 presidential election that failed to gain much traction after
  the Obama campaign indicated that it preferred that donors not give to such groups.
  But Mr. Brock, a former conservative journalist who publicly disavowed the right in the late 1990s, is a respected political
  player, who has drawn plaudits from liberal donors for his running of the array of groups under the Media Matters
  umbrella.
  Mr. Brock pointed out that the various groups associated with Media Matters had raised a combined $23 million this year.
  Its backers include major Democratic donors like George Soros, the billionaire who recently announced he had given $1
  million to the group; Peter B. Lewis, the billionaire chairman of Progressive Insurance, who, like Mr. Soros, gave more
  than $20 million to Democratic-oriented groups in 2004; and the Hollywood producer Steve Bing.
  "My donor base already constitutes the major individual players who have historically given hundreds of millions of dollars
  to these types of efforts," Mr. Brock said. "They just need to be asked, and I have no doubt they will step up at this critical
  time."
  There also seems to be widespread agreement among Democratic activists and donors on the need for such groups to be
  more heavily involved in the 2012 elections.
  White House officials have signaled in recent weeks that the Obama administration would not object to Democratic-
  leaning outside groups getting involved in the 2012 elections, a change from the Obama campaign's attitude toward such
  groups in 2008. But they have also indicated that they would prefer that the names of donors be disclosed.
  The lack of disclosure among Republican-leaning outside groups became a central Democratic talking point this year as
  spending by outside groups on the right exploded before the midterm elections.
  But the overriding desire on the part of liberal donors and activists to hold on to the White House and to win back some of
  what was lost in the House and Senate may trump those principles. Most political operatives agree that it is easier to raise
  money if the option of offering anonymity is available.
  "It would be sort of a funny principle to stand on, to essentially tie one hand behind your back," Mr. McKay said.
  Besides Mr. Brock, numerous Democratic activists have been in discussions about setting up similar independent efforts.
  On Monday, for instance, Steve Rosenthal, who was the chief executive of America Coming Together, a Democratic fund-
  raising vehicle that focused on voter mobilization in the 2004 election, convened a group of political operatives, many of
  whom were active in that election, at a Washington restaurant to discuss what might be done for 2012.
  No one, however, has apparently gone as far as Mr. Brock in terms of raising money and formally setting up an
  organization.
  Mr. Brock said the $4 million in pledges the group has collected so far should be deposited in its bank account by the end
  of the first quarter of 2011.
  By way of comparison, America's Families First Action Fund, one of the major Democratic independent efforts in House
  races this year, raised just over $4 million for the entire cycle up until mid-October.
  The internal concept paper for American Bridge lays out a series of priorities for the next year, including initially focusing
  on attacking vulnerable Republicans in the Senate and the House, as a prelude to major spending in 2012.

  Effort for Liberal Balance to G.O.P. Groups Begins
  By MICHAEL LUO

  -per>
  In what may prove a significant development for the 2012 elections, David Brock
  <http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/b/david brock/index.html?inline=ny
  t-per> , a prominent Democratic political operative, says he has amassed $4 million in pledges
  over the last few weeks and is moving quickly to hire a staff to set up what he hopes will become
  a permanent liberal counterweight over the airwaves to the Republican-leaning outside groups
  that spent so heavily on this year's midterm elections.
  Kathleen Kennedy Townsend

  1?inline=nyt-per> 's 11 children, has agreed to serve as the chairwoman of the group, which will
  be called American Bridge, lending to the still extremely nascent undertaking the weight of what
  remains one of the most significant families in Democratic politics.
  Leading Democratic donors who have already pledged money to the group include Rob McKay,
  heir to the Taco Bell fortune and chairman of the Democracy Alliance, a partnership of wealthy
  liberal donors; Robert Dyson, who heads Dyson-Kissner-Moran, a takeover and acquisitions firm
  in New York City; and Marcia L. Carsey, a television producer who gave $1 million to
  Democratic outside groups in 2004.
  Mr. Brock said in an interview that he planned to formally file papers with the Federal Election
  Commission
  <http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/f/federal election commissio
  n/index.html?inline=nyt-org> on Tuesday to set up American Bridge as what is known as an
  independent-expenditure-only political action committee, meaning it will be able to take in
  contributions of unlimited size from individuals and corporations but must regularly disclose its
  donors.
  Certain to set off debate, however, is that Mr. Brock appears to be positioning his new
  organization so that fund-raising consultants can raise money for Democratic-oriented media
  efforts not just through American Bridge but also via one of the nonprofit organizations Mr.
  Brock currently runs, Media Matters Action Network, which does not disclose its donors.
  The action network, which tracks conservative politicians and advocacy organizations, is
  organized as a 501(c)(4) nonprofit group and is set to take on an expanded role in the 2012
  elections, including potentially running television ads, according to an internal draft concept
  paper about American Bridge's and Media Matter Action Network's plans obtained by The New
  York Times.
  Mr. Brock said that "money is money," and that he would actively solicit donors for both entities
  and, in the end, the media spending would be apportioned accordingly.
  The moves by Mr. Brock in recent weeks make his the most concrete effort so far on the part of
  Democratic activists to establish some kind of centralized structure that they hope will become
  the left's answer in 2012 to such groups on the right as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce
  <http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/organizations/c/chamber of commerce us/
  index.html?inline=nyt-org> , American Crossroads and others, which significantly outspent
  Democratic-leaning outside groups this year. It is too early to say whether Mr. Brock's group
  will emerge as the go-to vehicle for giant contributions on the left.
  Mr. Brock led a much-heralded independent group in the 2008 presidential election that failed to
  gain much traction after the Obama campaign indicated that it preferred that donors not give to
  such groups.
  But Mr. Brock, a former conservative journalist who publicly disavowed the right in the late
  1990s, is a respected political player, who has drawn plaudits from liberal donors for his running
  of the array of groups under the Media Matters umbrella.
  Mr. Brock pointed out that the various groups associated with Media Matters had raised a
  combined $23 million this year. Its backers include major Democratic donors like George Soros
  <http://to_pics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/s/george soros/index.html?inline=n
  yt-per> , the billionaire who recently announced he had given $1 million to the group; Peter B.
  Lewis
  <http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/l/peter b lewis/index.html?inline=n
  yt-per> , the billionaire chairman of Progressive Insurance, who, like Mr. Soros, gave more than
  $20 million to Democratic-oriented groups in 2004; and the Hollywood producer Steve Bing.
  "My donor base already constitutes the major individual players who have historically given
  hundreds of millions of dollars to these types of efforts," Mr. Brock said. "They just need to be
  asked, and I have no doubt they will step up at this critical time."
  There also seems to be widespread agreement among Democratic activists and donors on the
  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771684 Date: 08/31/2015

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771684 Date: 08/31/2015
  need for such groups to be more heavily involved in the 2012 elections.
  White House officials have signaled in recent weeks that the Obama administration would not
  object to Democratic-leaning outside groups getting involved in the 2012 elections, a change
  from the Obama campaign's attitude toward such groups in 2008. But they have also indicated
  that they would prefer that the names of donors be disclosed.
  The lack of disclosure among Republican-leaning outside groups became a central Democratic
  talking point this year as spending by outside groups on the right exploded before the midterm
  elections.
  But the overriding desire on the part of liberal donors and activists to hold on to the White House
  and to win back some of what was lost in the House and Senate may trump those principles.
  Most political operatives agree that it is easier to raise money if the option of offering anonymity
  is available.
  "It would be sort of a funny principle to stand on, to essentially tie one hand behind your back,"
  Mr. McKay said.
  Besides Mr. Brock, numerous Democratic activists have been in discussions about setting up
  similar independent efforts.
  On Monday, for instance, Steve Rosenthal, who was the chief executive of America Coming
  Together, a Democratic fund-raising vehicle that focused on voter mobilization in the 2004
  election, convened a group of political operatives, many of whom were active in that election, at
  a Washington restaurant to discuss what might be done for 2012.
  No one, however, has apparently gone as far as Mr. Brock in terms of raising money and
  formally setting up an organization.
  Mr. Brock said the $4 million in pledges the group has collected so far should be deposited in its
  bank account by the end of the first quarter of 2011.
  By way of comparison, America's Families First Action Fund, one of the major Democratic
  independent efforts in House races this year, raised just over $4 million for the entire cycle up
  until mid-October.
  The internal concept paper for American Bridge lays out a series of priorities for the next year,
  including initially focusing on attacking vulnerable Republicans in the Senate and the House, as
  a prelude to major spending in 2012.

  an SP memo on possible legal and nonlegal strategies re wikileaks
  SP WikiLeaks doc final11.23.10.docx
  Following this morning's meetings I activated my four legal eagles on the SP staff — Peter Harrell,
  Jen Harris, Bill Burke White, and Catherine Powell (that includes two law profs and two Yale law
  grads who certainly could be law profs). They in turn reached out to people at the Berkmann
  Center at Harvard and other experts, working together with Alec Ross. Alec has been particularly

  an SP memo on possible legal and nonlegal strategies re wikileaks
  SP WikiLeaks doc final11.23.10.docx
  Following this morning's meetings I activated my four legal eagles on the SP staff — Peter Harrell,
  Jen Harris, Bill Burke White, and Catherine Powell (that includes two law profs and two Yale law
  grads who certainly could be law profs). They in turn reached out to people at the Berkmann
  Center at Harvard and other experts, working together with Alec Ross. Alec has been particularly
  useful in terms not only of his knowledge but also his sensitivity to how anything we might try to
  do could impact our own internet freedom agenda. The result is the attached memo, which has one

  US Election And The Fed
  Welcome To The New (Old) World
  September 19, 2010
  One of the main debates inside senior Fed offices is how much they may have to balance a much more
  conservative fiscal policy if the Republicans take over. This is the most important question facing officials
  on both sides of the fence (far more than squiggles and whirls of monthly numbers).
  But it's not just spending and taxes, important as they are, it's also implementation of Reg Reform and
  Health Care Reform. All of that is going to change after November. Here are the details.
  Amid the snarkiness about how crazy the Tea Party candidates may be (and, as you know, we LOVE
  snarkiness) two things should not be lost:
  1. The President has lost control of the spending and tax agenda
  2. The President has lost control of implementing the Reg Reform and health care
  legislation Congress pushed through.
  All polling from both parties and independent sources point strongly to the Republicans taking over the
  House. Although they are less likely to take over the Senate, they will be able to gain effective control of
  spending, taxes and large scale administrative reforms.
  Let's start with spending:
  The basic fact is that all spending has to be approved by Congress and it starts with the House. As we
  wrote nearly a week ago, House Republican Leader Boehner and his senior staff have made it clear to us
  that they would like to freeze spending at 2008 levels with an annual cost savings of $340 billion. This will
  be one of the top Republican priorities.
  Freezing spending at 2008 levels will not happen. However, even in the unlikely event the Republicans do
  not take over the House the budget will -- at most -- be frozen at or near FY 2010 levels (i.e. the last time
  money was formally appropriated).
  Since there have been no spending bills approved and the fiscal year starts in October, the Congress has
  to pass a "continuing resolution" that keeps the government running until specific appropriations are made
  (the 1995 government shutdown happened because there were no appropriations and no continuing
  resolution...the government literally runs out of spending authority).
  Congress will pass a CR in the next few weeks and it will most likely run through the formation of the new
  Congress (say February or March) next year. They could only do it through the lame duck session, but
  that would be cutting it close and too cute.
  Because the new Congress - even if the Republicans fail to take full control of the House - will be
  dominated by fiscal conservatives, Boehner's CR idea will have traction. The Senate will make it more
  moderate, but then it will be up to the President to veto it and thus shut down government or sign it and
  take the hit.
  In turn that does two things: (1) it frees up money for the Bush tax rollovers and (2) it helps the plan to
  slow or freeze implementation of the reg reform and health care reform bills.
  The first part is obvious. The second may be less so. People forget that implementation of these rules
  requires staff increases, staff reg writing, etc and that's money. By freezing spending at previous levels
  you freeze the ability to hire new staff and you seriously obstruct the new rule writing process.
  Add to that Boehner's commitment to overturn the two major regulatory reforms and you've got a tidal
  wave of indecision and paralysis (Jesus, talk about mixed metaphors although it would be interesting to
  see one of those).
  The hearings he will announce and simply the chilling effect of him threatening to overturn the laws will
  accomplish ninety-percent of what he wants to get done, and potentially give the courts time to strike
  down parts of the health care bill now under appeal.
  THE SENATE
  While everyone has written off Republican control of the Senate (we haven't), the attention should be on
  what the Senate will look like even if the consensus of 52-54 Democratic majority prevails.
  The point is how the US Senate will function in January 2011 given its new membership. We got a
  glimpse of what this would look like when moderate Republican Scott Brown was elected and the health
  care public option was panned and Reg Reform was trimmed around the edges.
  The incoming crop of members are much more ardent on government spending, the debt, taxes and
  regulatory oversight. They will make Boehner's job much easier
  Take a quick look at the new members (and the several they will marry up with once they are sworn into
  office).
  While some of these candidates are replacing Republican open seats, all of them are generally considered
  more conservative than their predecessors:
  1. ck (CO) - likely winner
  2. Toomey (PA) - likely winner
  3. Rubio (FL) - likely winner
  4. Ayotte (NH) - likely winner
  5. Blunt (MO) - likely winner
  6. Portman (OH) -likely winner
  7. Coats (IN) - likely winner
  8. Paul (KY) - likely winner
  9. Miller (AK) - likely winner
  10. Lee (UT) - likely winner
  11. Boozman (AR) - likely winner
  12. Hoeven (ND) - likely winner
  13. Kirk (IL) - 50/50 (lean GOP)
  14. Angle (NV) - 50/50 tossup
  There are several other Democrat-controlled seats that remain in play (CA, WI, WA, and CT). These races
  continue to develop and we will report more as the picture on Election Day becomes clearer.
  These likely new members will join the following traditional budget trouble-makers in the US Senate:
  1. DeMint (SC)
  2. Coburn (OK)
  3. Inhofe (OK)
  4. McConnell (KY)
  5. Kyl (AZ)
  6. McCain (AZ)
  7. Thune (SD)
  8. Crapo (ID)
  9. Vitter (LA)
  10. Burr (NC)
  One aggressive Senator can slow the body to a snail's pace, and Republicans operated efficiently as a
  minority party with only 41 votes total. In January, there will be at least 22 new and existing serious road
  blocks now patrolling the Senate Floor. The Republican pick-ups will make getting to 60 votes for cloture
  impossible on spending bills.
  Welcome to the new reality.

  Declaring America's Stand on Middle East Peace
  By Chester A. Crocker, Scott B. Lasensky and Samuel W. Lewis
  Faltering Middle East peace talks need a jolt. Washington has a powerful option for moving the process forward: taking
  a firm stand on how to end the conflict.
  An American declaration of principles—carefully crafted and properly marketed--could spark a debate and thereby
  change the political calculus for leaders. As a mediator and a world power, one of America's strongest assets is the
  ability to legitimize ideas and then rally others in support. A central role for the U.S. in this conflict must be to define the
  zone of negotiability.
  This does not mean imposing peace. Rather, it would be a statement of the basic principles the U.S. believes can guide
  the parties toward a negotiated solution. America has long declared its support for "two states," but must now say more
  about what that means in practice.
  Even if the current talks resume, without American ideas the parties are unlikely to agree on the broad trade-offs
  necessary to reach a peace deal. A quick deal on "borders and security," as many have proposed, is itself unlikely
  without Washington addressing the end-game. Otherwise, both sides would be too exposed on issues set for later
  discussion, like Jerusalem and refugees. Opinion polling has consistently showed that support for peace is strongest
  when all the core issues are addressed.
  An American statement of principles would mobilize regional support. It would provide, for the first time, a public
  framework for engaging sponsors of the Arab Peace Initiative. It would also strengthen our ability to reassert the
  importance of a regional support structure for the bilateral negotiations, especially by reviving multilateral contacts and
  meetings involving Israelis and their neighbors from throughout the region. Moreover, greater regional engagement on
  the peace process can carry powerful benefits for regional challenges like the Iranian nuclear program.
  A clearer U.S. declaration is also the surest way to protect prospects for a two-state solution from an unrelenting
  onslaught on the ground that pushes the parties away from a peace deal. An American set of ideas would anchor
  present-day demands on issues like Jerusalem, security and settlements in a clear vision of the future.
  Perhaps most urgently, it would broaden the debate from the narrow confines of the settlements question.
  At a minimum, the American declaration should be based on the 1967 lines, with agreed territorial swaps; support a
  compromise on Jerusalem that allows for two capitals for two states; include provisions about security limitations and
  guarantees; reiterate America's support for an agreed solution to the refugee problem; and reaffirm our long-standing
  commitment to the State of Israel. But American principles should also include some caveat, given that our ultimate
  interest is in an agreed, viable solution—not in any particular formula.
  What would it take for American ideas to succeed? Unlike some past efforts, Washington should not try to 'pre-cook'
  this declaration with one or more parties or to choreograph their reactions. In fact, the U.S. statement of principles
  would be explicitly described as what our own country believes in and can support; and by implication cannot support.
  Thus, the U.S. statement would not be designed to achieve immediate approval or adoption by the parties. Its purpose
  would be to clarify where America stands, how we define our interests and what we can work for. It would aim at
  influencing the climate of thinking in the region, sobering up those with illusions and encouraging those who need our
  support.
  Timing and context are of course key considerations. Assuming the current gridlock in negotiations persists, some time
  must elapse until our election results have been digested, here and abroad, and before public attention can be
  redirected toward the foreboding and increasingly dangerous Arab-Israel stalemate.
  A presidential speech will then be essential to dramatize the seriousness of our purpose and to lay out the principles. It
  should be immediately followed by a major, high level diplomatic effort to persuade key Middle East leaders and our
  Quartet and UN allies of our genuine desire to regionalize the peacemaking effort. To maximize support from key
  members of Congress, the speech should occur before Congress adjourns. No further consultation with the stalemated
  parties beyond the routine should precede the speech, and leaks of its contents must be kept to an absolute minimum if
  our purpose is not to be undermined.
  The speech could usefully also remove some of the veil of silence that shrouds breakthroughs in past negotiations; for
  example, progress in the Annapolis process.
  As for the substance, in its endorsement of a two-state solution and comprehensive Arab-Israeli peace, the Obama
  Administration has hinted that a Palestinian settlement should also accompany normalized relations between Israel and
  the Arab states, putting a broader framing around what has traditionally been defined as a conflict between Israel and
  its immediate neighbors. The normalization piece of the puzzle should be more fully articulated as part of a new strategy
  based on presenting American ideas to the parties. It is a way to entice skeptical Israelis, but it also leads back to a long
  overdue need for Washington to engage on the Arab Peace Initiative.
  If the U.S. puts forward its own peace principles, American leadership can ensure that any diplomatic process is defined
  by as clear a picture as possible of what the parties can expect to gain through a negotiated settlement, and of what
  they will never gain without one.
  Skeptics say it is too risky to present American ideas to the parties, that it would pull the rug out from under current
  leaders, exposing them to withering domestic criticism. Others argue that it will galvanize obstructionists, not those who
  support compromise, and could very well precipitate a crisis on the ground. Others simply worry about the cost to
  American prestige should any of the key players react negatively. But the risks are overstated, and a complete collapse

  Declaring America's Stand on Middle East Peace
  By Chester A. Crocker, Scott B. Lasensky and Samuel W. Lewis
  Faltering Middle East peace talks need a jolt. Washington has a powerful option for moving the process forward: taking
  a firm stand on how to end the conflict.
  An American declaration of principles—carefully crafted and properly marketed--could spark a debate and thereby
  change the political calculus for leaders. As a mediator and a world power, one of America's strongest assets is the
  ability to legitimize ideas and then rally others in support. A central role for the U.S. in this conflict must be to define the
  zone of negotiability.
  This does not mean imposing peace. Rather, it would be a statement of the basic principles the U.S. believes can guide
  the parties toward a negotiated solution. America has long declared its support for "two states," but must now say more
  about what that means in practice.
  Even if the current talks resume, without American ideas the parties are unlikely to agree on the broad trade-offs
  necessary to reach a peace deal. A quick deal on "borders and security," as many have proposed, is itself unlikely
  without Washington addressing the end-game. Otherwise, both sides would be too exposed on issues set for later
  discussion, like Jerusalem and refugees. Opinion polling has consistently showed that support for peace is strongest
  when all the core issues are addressed.
  An American statement of principles would mobilize regional support. It would provide, for the first time, a public
  framework for engaging sponsors of the Arab Peace Initiative. It would also strengthen our ability to reassert the
  importance of a regional support structure for the bilateral negotiations, especially by reviving multilateral contacts and
  meetings involving Israelis and their neighbors from throughout the region. Moreover, greater regional engagement on
  the peace process can carry powerful benefits for regional challenges like the Iranian nuclear program.
  A clearer U.S. declaration is also the surest way to protect prospects for a two-state solution from an unrelenting
  onslaught on the ground that pushes the parties away from a peace deal. An American set of ideas would anchor
  present-day demands on issues like Jerusalem, security and settlements in a clear vision of the future.
  Perhaps most urgently, it would broaden the debate from the narrow confines of the settlements question.
  At a minimum, the American declaration should be based on the 1967 lines, with agreed territorial swaps; support a
  compromise on Jerusalem that allows for two capitals for two states; include provisions about security limitations and

  guarantees; reiterate America's support for an agreed solution to the refugee problem; and reaffirm our long-standing
  commitment to the State of Israel. But American principles should also include some caveat, given that our ultimate
  interest is in an agreed, viable solution—not in any particular formula.
  What would it take for American ideas to succeed? Unlike some past efforts, Washington should not try to 'pre-cook'
  this declaration with one or more parties or to choreograph their reactions. In fact, the U.S. statement of principles
  would be explicitly described as what our own country believes in and can support; and by implication cannot support.
  Thus, the U.S. statement would not be designed to achieve immediate approval or adoption by the parties. Its purpose
  would be to clarify where America stands, how we define our interests and what we can work for. It would aim at
  influencing the climate of thinking in the region, sobering up those with illusions and encouraging those who need our
  support.
  Timing and context are of course key considerations. Assuming the current gridlock in negotiations persists, some time
  must elapse until our election results have been digested, here and abroad, and before public attention can be
  redirected toward the foreboding and increasingly dangerous Arab-Israel stalemate.
  A presidential speech will then be essential to dramatize the seriousness of our purpose and to lay out the principles. It
  should be immediately followed by a major, high level diplomatic effort to persuade key Middle East leaders and our
  Quartet and UN allies of our genuine desire to regionalize the peacemaking effort. To maximize support from key
  members of Congress, the speech should occur before Congress adjourns. No further consultation with the stalemated
  parties beyond the routine should precede the speech, and leaks of its contents must be kept to an absolute minimum if
  our purpose is not to be undermined.
  The speech could usefully also remove some of the veil of silence that shrouds breakthroughs in past negotiations; for
  example, progress in the Annapolis process.
  As for the substance, in its endorsement of a two-state solution and comprehensive Arab-Israeli peace, the Obama
  Administration has hinted that a Palestinian settlement should also accompany normalized relations between Israel and
  the Arab states, putting a broader framing around what has traditionally been defined as a conflict between Israel and
  its immediate neighbors. The normalization piece of the puzzle should be more fully articulated as part of a new strategy
  based on presenting American ideas to the parties. It is a way to entice skeptical Israelis, but it also leads back to a long
  overdue need for Washington to engage on the Arab Peace Initiative.
  If the U.S. puts forward its own peace principles, American leadership can ensure that any diplomatic process is defined
  by as clear a picture as possible of what the parties can expect to gain through a negotiated settlement, and of what
  they will never gain without one.
  Skeptics say it is too risky to present American ideas to the parties, that it would pull the rug out from under current
  leaders, exposing them to withering domestic criticism. Others argue that it will galvanize obstructionists, not those who
  support compromise, and could very well precipitate a crisis on the ground. Others simply worry about the cost to
  American prestige should any of the key players react negatively. But the risks are overstated, and a complete collapse
  of the process would be far more dangerous, particularly as the strategic environment shifts in favor of regional forces
  that seek to undermine, rather than promote peace.
  America can and must do more than limit itself to managing a conflict that has all too often upended our shared
  interests in peace and stability.

  Subject: an SP memo on possible legal and nonlegal strategies re wikileaks
  Following this morning's meetings I activated my four legal eagles on the SP staff Peter Harrell,
  Jen Harris, Bill Burke White, and Catherine Powell (that includes two law profs and two Yale law
  grads who certainly could be law profs). They in turn reached out to people at the Berkmann
  Center at Harvard and other experts, working together with Alec Ross. Alec has been particularly
  useful in terms not only of his knowledge but also his sensitivity to how anything we might try to
  do could impact our own internet freedom agenda. The result is the attached memo, which has one
  interesting legal approach and I think some very good suggestions about how to handle our public
  diplomacy. AM

  In view of wires, etc, and not for attribution please, we don't think WL is going to dump 250k cables on the web anytime

  Subject: (AP) US jury convicts 5 Somali men in Navy ship attack
  NORFOLK (AP) - A jury in Virginia has convicted five Somali men of piracy for their attack on a U.S. Navy ship off the coast
  of Africa.
  Jurors returned the guilty verdict November 24 in Norfolk after deliberating 10 hours over two days. The verdict is the
  first piracy conviction in a U.S. courtroom in nearly 200 years.
  The conviction carries a mandatory life term.
  The defendants were charged with attacking the USS Nicholas on April 1 as it patrolled off the coast of Somalia.
  The men claimed they were fishermen who were kidnapped, beaten and forced into piracy.

  I do not anticipate surprises this morning. The biggies will be the focus — Iran (engagement, hikers, eight in custody),
  Afghanistan (elections, corruption, shift in approach to Karzai), MEPP (overcoming settlement moratorium), Iraq
  (government formation), China (broad relations, spat with Japan, currency), Russia (START) and North Korea. Beyond
  that, there is great sympathy within the editorial board regarding Haiti and a front page story today about the concerns
  of Haitians in camps who are frustrated with the pace of the recovery. This being New York, I can easily see the mosque
  coming up.

  Hearing from some sources that Anwar Ibrahim has linked to AQ financiers. Apparently the Saudis are onto this and
  showed the US a dossier about this. Do you know anything about it? Is this the real reason why her meeting with him

  Subject: (Reuters) ROK to hold emergency meet on economy after attack
  SEOUL (Reuters) —South Korean President Lee Myung-bak called an emergency meeting early November 25 to check on
  the economic impact from the worst North Korean attacks on civilians in the South since the 1950-53 Korean War. The
  presidential office said the meeting of senior security and economic officials was due to start at 0800 local (2300 GMT
  November 24) but did not provide more details. Local media reported the meeting was aimed at discussing ways to
  prevent tensions with North Korea from hurting the economy, which is becoming more reliant on domestic consumer
  spending for growth as exports are beginning to lose steam.

  SEOUL (Reuters) — North Korean leader Kim Jong-il and his son and successor Jong-un visited the artillery base from
  where shells were fired at a South Korean island just hours before the attack, South Korean media reported on
  November 25. North Korea's attack on Yeonpyeong Island that killed two South Korean marines and two civilians
  November 22 was probably ordered by Kim Jong-il himself, the Joongang Daily quoted a well-informed government
  source as saying. Seoul government officials contacted by Reuters could not comment on the reports. South Korean
  media reported the father and son had met General Kim Kyok-sik, the commander of the frontline fourth corps in charge
  of a Navy base in South Hwanghae province, just before the North shelled the island. JoongAng Daily quoted a source as
  saying that Kim visited the coastal artillery base in Gaemori from where the shells were fired with his son a day before
  the attack.

  Please Pass to the Secretary
  Madame Secretary,
  A shoot out occurred on August 20 in front of the American School in Monterrey (AFSM), resulting in the death of two
  bodyguards. An investigation is continuing into the details, but our understanding at this point is that it was an
  attempted kidnapping targeting the relatives of a local business executive. While it does not appear that U.S. families
  were targeted, the sharp increase in kidnapping incidents in the Monterrey area, and this event in particular, present a
  very high risk to the families of U.S. citizens who might be become incidental victims.
  U.S. security and law enforcement personnel have engaged local and federal security officials to seek their help on
  understanding the immediate risks and measures that can be taken. I have urged U.S. families at the Consulate in
  Monterrey not to send their children to school in the coming days while we review the events that took place on August
  20. We also are advising U.S. citizens in the area that we have urged Consulate personnel not to send their children to
  school while we complete this security review.
  I am sure that the warden notice will lead to a rash of press reports on U.S. concerns about security in Monterrey. More
  broadly, if the government cannot get the kidnappings in Monterrey under control, that may affect our ability to
  function in Monterrey. I have advised Secretary Espinosa of this, and have sought her help as well to address consulate
  security.
  Consulate personnel are currently on "authorized departure" and have the option to send their families to a U.S.
  location. Pat Kennedy is in close touch on these matters.

  SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea plans to boost military capability off its west coast, including cancelling an earlier plan to
  cut down the number of marine troops stationed there, after this week's North Korean attacks, it said on November
  25. A presidential office spokesman said the measures were part of the outcome from an emergency meeting presided
  over by President Lee Myung-bak early November 25.

  Please Pass to the Secretary
  Madame Secretary,
  A shoot out occurred on August 20 in front of the American School in Monterrey (AFSM), resulting in the death of two
  bodyguards. An investigation is continuing into the details, but our understanding at this point is that it was an
  attempted kidnapping targeting the relatives of a local business executive. While it does not appear that U.S. families
  were targeted, the sharp increase in kidnapping incidents in the Monterrey area, and this event in particular, present a
  very high risk to the families of U.S. citizens who might be become incidental victims.
  U.S. security and law enforcement personnel have engaged local and federal security officials to seek their help on
  understanding the immediate risks and measures that can be taken. I have urged U.S. families at the Consulate in
  Monterrey not to send their children to school in the coming days while we review the events that took place on August
  20. We also are advising U.S. citizens in the area that we have urged Consulate personnel not to send their children to
  school while we complete this security review.
  I am sure that the warden notice will lead to a rash of press reports on U.S. concerns about security in Monterrey. More
  broadly, if the government cannot get the kidnappings in Monterrey under control, that may affect our ability to
  function in Monterrey. I have advised Secretary Espinosa of this, and have sought her help as well to address consulate
  security.
  Consulate personnel are currently on "authorized departure" and have the option to send their families to a U.S.
  location. Pat Kennedy is in close touch on these matters.
  Carlos Pascual

  Subject: (Reuters) Iraqi PM Maliki asked to form government
  BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Iraq's president formally asked Prime Minister Maliki to form a new government, giving him 30
  days to choose a cabinet from among Iraq's fractious Shiite, Kurdish and Sunni political factions. The request from
  President Talabani came two weeks after political leaders reached an agreement to divide up the top government jobs,
  a deal that put Maliki, a Shiite, on track for a second term as premier. The power-sharing pact, more than eight months
  after an inconclusive March 7 parliamentary election, offered some hope that Iraq could avoid a return to the sectarian
  warfare that killed tens of thousands of people at its peak in 2006-07. The deal gave Talabani, a Kurd, another term as
  president and installed Sunni lawmaker Osama al-Nujaifi as speaker of parliament. Among Maliki's biggest decisions are
  his choices to head the oil and finance ministries.

  than seven months after national elections. His adviser Ali al-Moussawi said the prime minister will assure the
  neighboring states that none of Iraq's major political constituencies will be excluded from a new government if they back
  his second term. Al-Maliki will meet Jordan's King Abdullah II on October 17. He will meet with Iran's President
  Ahmadinejad and the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei in Tehran on October 18. He will also visit Turkey and Egypt

  On Wednesday, the IEC certifies the final results for 34 out of 35 constituencies in the Parliamentary Elections. The Chairperson of
  the IEC noted that while results for Ghazni elections were not included in the final results due to "technical issues," they would be
  announced in the upcoming three to five days. The UN and US embassy issued statements welcoming the results and commending the
  work of the IEC and ECC. While the Palace has not made any public comments, the Attorney General's office—which has served as
  the Government's mouthpiece to challenge the election institutions—continues to question the election outcome, criticizing the UN
  for endorsing the results and vowing that it will continue to investigate allegations of corruption and fraud in the IEC and ECC. In a
  last minute effort to influence the election announcement, the Attorney General had called for the suspension of the IEC and ECC
  spokesmen. The embassy has reported that the IEC and ECC have dismissed the Attorney General's comments as political posturing
  intended to influence the outcome in Ghazni.
  Demonstrations have been taking place in various parts of the country are likely to grow, given the Attorney General's comments. The
  political leadership appears to be split along ethnic lines, with a number of prominent Hazara and Tajik leaders—including Amrullah
  Saleh and Abdullah Abdullah—insisting that the election results in all 34 provinces being upheld, while Pashtun leaders—including
  Ashraf Ghani—questioning the legitimacy of the election results in a number of provinces. The President has noted that he will confer
  with his two Vice Presidents and jihadi leaders before commenting on the results. Vice President Khalili has been the key Hazara
  leader working with the UN to broker a deal to resolve the Ghazni elections.

  As time moves on, I realize I haven't seen you and Mrs. Clinton (Hillary) in a long time, but I think of you both often. I
  don't know if movie producers are still worthy in your world, but next time you're in NYC I'd love to see you.
  I have such fond memories of you guys watching SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE. I made another movie you might like about the
  ascendancy of King George after Edward abdicated, it's called KINGS SPEECH. The movie brings to light something that
  many people don't know, which is that King George was a stutterer and he hired an actor to try and help him overcome
  it. It's a fun movie that is much in the tradition of SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE, again I think you would both like it (and
  Hillary would approve because it's PG-13 with not too many swear words).
  If you have any trips coming up I'd love to send it to you so you guys can watch and give me your opinion. I could also
  include a copy of THE TILLMAN STORY, that one is obviously not a happy film, but it's an incredibly important one.
  PS
  Your bad friend,
  Harvey

  Subject: (Reuters) Israel angered by Palestinian report on Western Wall
  JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called on the Palestinian leadership to renounce an
  official Palestinian report asserting the Western Wall, one of Judaism's holiest sites, is not Jewish. Al-Mutawakil Taha,
  deputy information minister in the Palestinian Authority, published a five-page study disputing Jews' reverence of the
  shrine as a retaining wall of the compound of Biblical Jewish Temples destroyed centuries ago. "Denial of the
  connection between the Jewish people and the Western Wall by the Palestinian Authority's Ministry of Information is
  baseless and scandalous," Netanyahu said in a statement issued by the prime minister's office. "The Israeli government
  expects the leaders of the Palestinian Authority to renounce the document and condemn it, and to stop twisting
  historical facts," he said. In the report, Taha wrote the Western wall is a "Muslim wall and an integral part of al-Aqsa
  mosque and Haram al-Sharif," a position echoing past statements by the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. Taha
  issued the document after Israel approved five-year renovation plan for the Western Wall area.

  RAMALLAH (AP) — Saturday's statements seemed intended mainly as a new warning that Washington's peace efforts are
  in trouble. The Palestinians sharply criticized Israel's plans to build 238 more homes in east Jerusalem. Palestinian
  President Abbas met with leaders of the Palestine Liberation Organization and his Fatah movement at his headquarters in
  the West Bank. The Palestinians plan to study their options in coming days, said Yasser Abed Rabbo, the secretary
  general of the PLO. "These political options include going to the U.N. and to the Security Council," he said. Mohammed
  lshtayeh, a senior Fatah official, said the Palestinians will have prepared options by the time they consult with the Arab
  League in three weeks.

  Madame Secretary,
  A shoot out occurred on August 20 in front of the American School in Monterrey (AFSM), resulting in the death of two
  bodyguards. An investigation is continuing into the details, but our understanding at this point is that it was an attempted
  kidnapping targeting the relatives of a local business executive. While it does not appear that U.S. families were targeted,
  the sharp increase in kidnapping incidents in the Monterrey area, and this event in particular, present a very high risk to
  the families of U.S. citizens who might be become incidental victims.
  U.S. security and law enforcement personnel have engaged local and federal security officials to seek their help on
  understanding the immediate risks and measures that can be taken. I have urged U.S. families at the Consulate in

  20. We also are advising U.S. citizens in the area that we have urged Consulate personnel not to send their children to

  I am sure that the warden notice will lead to a rash of press reports on U.S. concerns about security in Monterrey. More
  broadly, if the government cannot get the kidnappings in Monterrey under control, that may affect our ability to function in
  Monterrey. I have advised Secretary Espinosa of this, and have sought her help as well to address consulate security.
  Consulate personnel are currently on "authorized departure" and have the option to send their families to a U.S.
  location. Pat Kennedy is in close touch on these matters.

  Please Pass to the Secretary
  Madame Secretary,
  A shoot out occurred on August 20 in front of the American School in Monterrey (AFSM), resulting in the death of two
  bodyguards. An investigation is continuing into the details, but our understanding at this point is that it was an
  attempted kidnapping targeting the relatives of a local business executive. While it does not appear that U.S. families
  were targeted, the sharp increase in kidnapping incidents in the Monterrey area, and this event in particular, present a
  very high risk to the families of U.S. citizens who might be become incidental victims.
  U.S. security and law enforcement personnel have engaged local and federal security officials to seek their help on
  understanding the immediate risks and measures that can be taken. I have urged U.S. families at the Consulate in
  Monterrey not to send their children to school in the coming days while we review the events that took place on August
  20. We also are advising U.S. citizens in the area that we have urged Consulate personnel not to send their children to
  school while we complete this security review.
  I am sure that the warden notice will lead to a rash of press reports on U.S. concerns about security in Monterrey. More
  broadly, if the government cannot get the kidnappings in Monterrey under control, that may affect our ability to
  function in Monterrey. I have advised Secretary Espinosa of this, and have sought her help as well to address consulate
  security.
  Consulate personnel are currently on "authorized departure" and have the option to send their families to a U.S.
  location. Pat Kennedy is in close touch on these matters.

  A REPORTER AT 1.ARGE
  COVERT OPERATIONS
  The billionaire brothers who are waging a war against Obama.
  by Jane Mayetmo,
  (.s..
  David H. Koch in 1996. He and his brother Charles are lifelong libertarians and have quietly given more than a hundred million
  dollars to right-wing causes.
  On May 17th, a black-tie audience at the Metropolitan Opera House applauded as a tall, jovial-looking billionaire tOok the
  stage. It was the seventieth annual spring gala of American Ballet Theatre, and David H. Koch was being celebrated for his
  generosity as a member of the board of trustees; he had recently donated $2.5 million toward the company's upcoming season,
  and had given many millions before that. Koch received an award while flanked by two of the gala's co-chairs, Blaine Trump,
  in a peach-colored gown, and Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg, in emerald green. Kennedy's mother, Jacqueline Kennedy
  Onassis, had been a patron of the ballet and, coincidentally, the previous owner of a Fifth Avenue apartment that Koch had
  bought, in 1995, and then sold, eleven years later, for thirty-two million dollars, having found it too small.
  The gala marked the social ascent of Koch, who, at the age of seventy, has become one of the city's most prominent
  philanthropists. In 2008, he donated a hundred million dollars to modernize. Lincoln Center's New York State Theatre building,
  which now bears his name. He has given twenty million to the American Museum of Natural History, whose dinosaur wing is
  named for him. This spring, after noticing the decrepit state of the fountains outside the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Koch
  pledged at least ten million dollars for their renovation. He is a trustee of the museum, perhaps the most coveted social prize in
  the city, and serves on the board of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, where, after he donated more than forty million
  dollars, an endowed chair and a research center were named for him.
  One dignitary was conspicuously absent from the gala: the event's third honorary co-chair, Michelle Obama. Her office
  said that a scheduling conflict had prevented her from attending. Yet had the First Lady shared the stage with Koch it might
  have created an awkward tableau. In Washington, Koch is best known as part of a family that has repeatedly funded stealth
  attacks on the federal government, and on the Obama Administration in particular.
  With his brother Charles, who is seventy-four, David Koch owns virtually all of Koch Industries, a conglomerate,
  headquartered in Wichita. Kansas, whose annual revenues are estimated to be a hundred billion dollars. The company has
  grown spectacularly since their father, Fred, died, in 1967, and the brothers took charge. The Kochs operate oil refineries in
  Alaska, Texas, and Minnesota, and control some four thousand miles of pipeline. Koch Industries owns Brawny paper towels,
  Dixie. cups, Georgia-Pacific lumber, Staimnaster carpet, and Lycra, among other products. Forbes ranks it as the second-largest
  private company in the country, after Cargill, and its consistent profitability has made David and Charles Koch—who, years
  ago, bought out two other brothers—among the richest Men in America. Their combined fortune of thirty-five billion dollars is
  exceeded only by those of Bill Gates and Warren Buffett.
  The Kochs are longtime libertarians who believe in drastically lower personal and corporate taxes, minimal social services
  for the needy, and much less oversight of industry—especially environmental regulation. These views dovetail with the
  brothers' corporate interests. In a study released this spring, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst's Political Economy
  Research Institute named Koch Industries one of the top ten air polluters in the United States.- And Greenpeace issued a report
  identifying the company as a "kingpin of climate science denial." The report showed that, from 2005 to 2008, the Kochs vastly
  outdid ExxonMobil in giving money to organizations fighting legislation related to climate change, unclerwriting'a huge
  network of foundations, think tanks, and political front groups. Indeed, the brothers have funded opposition campaigns against
  so many Obama Administration policies—from health-care reform to the economic-stimulus program----that, in political circles,
  their ideological network is known as the Kochtopus.
  In a statement, Koch Industries said that the Greenpeace report "distorts the environmental record of our companies." And. .
  David Koch, in a recent, admiring article about him in New York, protested that the "radical press" had turned his family into
  "whipping boys," and had exaggerated its influence on American politics. But Charles Lewis, the founder of the Center for
  Public Integrity, a nonpartisan watchdog group, said, "The Kochs are on a whole different level. There's no one else who has
  spent this much money. The sheer dimension of it is what sets them apart. They have a pattern of lawbreaking, political
  manipulation, and obfuscation. I've been in Washington since Watergate, and I've never seen anything like it. They are the
  Standard Oil of our times."
  few weeks after the Lincoln Center gala, the advocacy wing of the Americans for Prosperity Foundation—an organization that
  David Koch started, in 2004—held a different kind of gathering. Over the July 4th weekend, a summit called Texas Defending
  the American Dream took place in a chilly hotel ballroom in Austin. Though Koch freely promotes his philanthropic ventures,
  lie did not attend the summit, and his name was not in evidence. And on this occasion the audience was roused not by a,dance
  performance but by a series of speakers denouncing President Barack Obama. Peggy Venable, the organizer of the summit,
  warned that Administration officials "have a socialist visiOn for this country."
  Five hundred people attended the summit, which served, in part, as a training session for Tea Party activists in Texas. An
  advertisement cast the event as a populist uprising against vested corporate power. "Today, the voices of average Americans are
  being drowned out by lobbyists and special interests," it said. "But you can do something about it." The pitch made no mention
  of its corporate funders. The White House has expressed frustration that such sponsors have largely eluded public notice. David .
  Axelrod, Obama's senior adviser, said, "What they don't say is that, in part, this is a grassroots citizens' movement brought to
  you by a bunch of oil billionaires."
  In April, 2009, Melissa Cohlmia, a company spokesperson; denied that the Kochs had direct links to the Tea Party, saying
  that Americans for Prosperity is "an independent organization and Koch companies do not in any way direct their activities."
  .Later, she issued a statement: "No funding has been provided by Koch companies, the Koch foundations, or Charles Koch or
  David Koch specifically to support the tea parties." David Koch told New York, "I've never been to a tea-party event. No one
  representing the tea party has ever even approached me."
  At the lectern in Austin, however, Venable—a longtime political operative who draws a salary from Americans for
  Prosperity, and who has worked for Koch-funded political groups since 1994—spoke less warily: "We love what the Tea
  Parties are doing, because that's how we're going to take back America!" she declared, as the crowd cheered. In a subsequent
  interview, she described herself as an early member of the movement, joking, "I was part of the Tea Party before it was cool!"
  She explained that the role of Americans for Prosperity was to help "educate" Tea Party activists on policy details, and to give
  them "next-step training" after their rallies, so that their political energy could be channelled "more effectively." And she noted
  that Americans for Prosperity had provided Tea Party activists with lists of elected officials to target. She said of the Kochs.
  "They're certainly our people. David's the chairman of our board. I've certainly met with them, and I'm very appreciative Of
  what they do."
  Venable honored several Tea Party "citizen leaders" at the summit. The Texas branch of Americans for Prosperity gave its
  Blogger of the Year Award to a young woman named Sibyl West. On June 14th, West, writing on her site, described Obama as
  the "cokehead in chief." In an online thread, West speculated that the President was exhibiting symptoms of "demonic
  possession (aka schizophrenia, etc.)." The summit featured several paid speakers, including Janine Turner, the actress best
  known for her role on the television series "Northern Exposure." She declared, "They don't want our children to know about
  their rights. They don't want our children to know about a God!"
  During a catered lunch, Venable introduced Ted Cruz, a former solicitor general of Texas, who told the crowd that Obama
  was "the most radical President ever to occupy the Oval Office," and had hidden from voters a secret agenda—"the government
  taking over our economy and our lives." Countering Obama, Cruz proclaimed, was the epic fight of our generation!" As the
  crowd rose to its feet and cheered, he quoted the defiant words of a Texan at the Alamo: "Victory, or death!"
  Americans for Prosperity has worked closely with the Tea Party since the movement's inception. In the weeks before the
  first Tax Day protests, in April, 2009, Americans for Prosperity hosted a Web site offering supporters "Tea Party Talking
  Points." The Arizona branch urged people to send tea bags to Obama; the Missouri branch urged members to sign up for
  "Taxpayer Tea Party Registration" and provided directions to nine protests. The group continues to stoke the rebellion. The
  North Carolina branch recently launched a "Tea Party Finder" Web site, advertised as "a hub for all the Tea Parties in North
  Carolina."
  The anti-government fervor infusing the 2010 elections represents a political triumph for the Kochs. By giving money to
  "educate," fund, and organize Tea Party protesters, they have helped turn their private agenda into a mass movement. Bruce
  Bartlett, a conservative economist and a historian, who once worked at the National Center for Policy Analysis, a Dallas-based
  think tank that the Kochs fund, said, "The problem with the whole libertarian movement is that it's been all chiefs and no
  Indians. There haven't been any actual people, like voters, who give a crap about it. So the problem for the Kochs has been
  trying to create a movement." With the emergence of the Tea Party, he said, "everyone suddenly sees that for the first time there
  are Indians out there—people who can provide real ideological power." The Kochs, he said, are "trying to shape and control and
  channel the populist uprising into their own policies."-
  A Republican campaign consultant who has done research on behalf of Charles and David Koch said of the Tea Party, "The
  Koch brothers gave the money that founded it. It's like they put the seeds in the ground. Then the rainstorm comes, and the
  frogs come out of the mud—and they're our candidates!"
  The Kochs and their political operatives declined requests for interviews. Instead, a prominent New York public-relations
  executive who is close with the Kochs put forward two friends: George Pataki, the former governor of New York, and Mortimer
  Zuckerman, the publisher and real-estate magnate. Pataki, a Republican who received campaign donations from David Koch,
  called him "a patriot who cares deeply about his country." Zuckerman praised David's "gentle decency" and the "range of his
  public interests."
  The Republican campaign consultant said of the family's political activities, "To call them under the radar is an
  understatement. They are underground!" Another former Koch adviser said, "They're smart. This right-wing, redneck stuff
  works for them. They see this as a way to get things done without getting dirty themselves." Rob Stein, a Democratic political
  strategist who has studied the conservative movement's finances, said that the Kochs are "at the epicenter of the anti-Obama
  movement. But it's not just about Obama. They would have done the same to Hillary Clinton. They did the same with Bill •
  Clinton. They are out to destroy progressivism."
  ddly enough, the fiercely capitalist Koch family owes part of its fortune to Joseph Stalin. Fred Koch was the son of a Dutch
  printer who settled in Texas and ran a weekly newspaper. Fred attended M.I.T., where he earned a degree in chemical
  engineering. In 1927, he invented a more efficient process for converting oil into gasoline; but, according to family lore,
  America's major oil companies regarded him as a threat and shut him out of the industry. Unable to succeed at home, Koch
  found work in the Soviet Union. In the nineteen-thirties, his company trained Bolshevik engineers and helped Stalin's regime
  set up fifteen modern oil refineries. Over time, however, Stalin brutally purged several of Koch's Soviet colleagues. Koch was
  deeply affected by the experience, and regretted his collaboration. He returned to the U.S. In the headquarters of his company,
  Rock Island Oil & Refining, in Wichita, he kept photographs aimed at proving that some of those Soviet refineries had been
  destroyed in the Second World War. Gus diZerega, a former friend of Charles Koch, recalled, "As the Soviets became a
  stronger military power, Fred felt a certain amount of guilt at having helped build them up. I think it bothered him a lot."
  In 1958, Fred Koch became one of the original members of the john Birch Society, the arch-conservative group known, in
  part, for a highly skeptical view of governance and for spreading fears of a Communist takeover. Members considered President
  Dwight D. Eisenhower to be a Communist agent. In a self-published broadside, Koch claimed that the Communists have
  infiltrated both the Democrat and Republican Parties." He wrote admiringly of Benito Mussolini's suppression of Communists
  in Italy, and disparagingly of the American civil-rights movement. "The colored man looms large in the Communist plan to take
  over America," he warned. Welfare was a secret plot to attract rural blacks to cities, where they would foment "a vicious race
  war." In a 1963 speech that prefigures the Tea Party's talk of a secret 'socialist plot, Koch predicted that Communists would
  "infiltrate the highest offices of government in the U.S. until the President is a Communist, unknown to the rest of us."
  Koch married Mary Robinson, the daughter of a Missouri physician, and they had four sons: Freddie, Charles, and twins,
  David and William. John Damgard, the president of the Futures Industry Association, was David's schoolmate and friend. He
  recalled that Fred Koch was "a real John Wayne type." Koch emphasized rugged pursuits, taking his sons big-game hunting in
  Africa, and requiring them to do farm labor at the family ranch. The Kochs lived in a stone mansion on a large compound across
  from Wichita's country club; in the summer, the boys could hear their friends splashing in the pool, but they were not allowed
  to join them. "By instilling a work ethie in me at an early age, my father did me a big favor, although it didn't seem like a favor
  back then," Charles has written. "By the time I was eight, he made sure work occupied most of my spare time." David Koch
  recalled that his father also indoctrinated the boys politically. "He was constantly speaking to us children about what was wrong
  with government," he told Brian Doherty, an editor of the libertarian magazine Reason, and the author of "Radicals for
  Capitalism," a 2007 history of the libertarian movement. "It's something I grew up with—a fundamental point of view that big
  government was bad, and imposition of government controls on our lives and economic fortunes was not good."
  David attended Deerfield Academy, in Massachusetts, and Charles was sent to military school. Charles, David, and William
  all earned engineering degrees at their father's alma mater, M.I.T., and later joined the family company. Charles eventually
  assumed control, with David as his deputy; William's career at the company was less successful. Freddie went to Harvard and
  studied playwriting at the Yale School of Drama. His father reportedly disapproved of him, and punished him financially.
  (Freddie, through a spokesperson, denied this:)
  In 1967, after Fred Koch died, of a heart attack, Charles renamed the business Koch Industries, in honor of his father. Fred
  Koch's will made his sons extraordinarily wealthy. David Koch joked about his good fortune in a 2003 speech to alumni at
  Deerfield, where, after pledging twenty-five million dollars, he was made the school's sole "lifetime trustee." He said, "You
  might ask: How does David Koch happen to have the wealth to be so generous? Well, let me tell you a story. It all started when
  I was alittle boy. One day, my father gave me an apple. I soon sold it for five dollars and bought two apples and sold them for
  ten. Then I bought four apples and sold them for twenty. Well, this went on day after day, week after week, month after month,
  year after year, until my father died and left me three hundred million dollars!"
  David and Charles had absorbed their father's conservative politics, but they did not share all his views, according to
  diZerega, who befriended Charles in the mid-sixties, after meeting him while browsing in a John Birch Society bookstore in
  Wichita. Charles eventually invited him to the Kochs' mansion, to participate in an informal political-discussion group. "It was
  pretty clear that Charles thought some of the Birch Society was bullshit," diZerega recalled.
  DiZerega, who has lost touch with Charles, eventually abandOned right-wing views, and became a political-science
  professor. He credits Charles with opening his mind to political philosophy, which set him on the path to academia; Charles is
  one of three people to whom he dedicated his first book. But diZerega believes that the Koch brothers have followed a wayward
  intellectual trajectory, transferring their father's paranoia about Soviet Communism to a distrust of the U.S. government, and
  seeing its expansion, beginning with the New Deal, as a tyrannical threat to freedom. In an essay, posted on Beliefnet, diZerega
  writes, "As state socialism failed ... the target for many within these organizations shifted to any kind of regulation at all.
  'Socialism' kept. being defined downwards."
  Members of the. John Birch Society developed.an interest in a school of Austrian economists who promoted free-market
  ideals. Charles and David Koch were particularly influenced by the work of Friedrich von Hayek, the author of "The Road to
  Serfdom" (1944), which argued that centralized government planning led, inexorably, to totalitarianism. Hayek'S belief in
  unfettered capitalism has proved inspirational to many conservatives, and to anti-Soviet dissidents; lately, Tea Party supporters
  have championed his work. In June, the talk-radio host Glenn Beck, who has supported the Tea Party rebellion, promoted "The
  Road to Serfdom" on his show; the paperback soon became a No. 1 best-seller on Amazon. (Beck appears to be a fan of the
  Kochs; in the midst of arecent on-air parody of Al Gore, Beck said, without explanation, "I want to thank Charles Koch for this
  information." Beck declined to elaborate on the relationship.)
  Charles and David also became devotees of a more radical thinker, Robert LeFevre, who favored the abolition of the state
  but didn't like the label "anarchist"; he called himself an "autarchist." LeFevre liked to say that "government is a disease
  masquerading as its own cure." In 1956, he opened an institution called the Freedom School, in Colorado Springs. Brian
  Doherty, of Reason, told me that "LeFevre was an anarchist figure who won Charles's heart," and that the school was "a tiny
  world of people who thought the New Deal was a horrible mistake." According to diZerega, Charles supported the school
  financially, and even gave him money to take classes there.
  Throughout the seventies, Charles and David continued to build Koch Industries. In 1980, William, with assistance from
  Freddie, attempted to take over the company from Charles, who, they felt, had assumed autocratic control. In retaliation, the
  company's board, which answered to Charles, fired William. ("Charles runs it all with an iron hand," Bruce Bartlett, the
  economist, told me.) Lawsuits were filed, with William and Freddie on one side and Charles and David on the other. In 1983,
  Charles and David bought out their brothers' share in the company for nearly a billion dollars. But the antagonism remained,
  and litigation continued for seventeen more years, with the brothers hiring rival private investigators; in 1990, they walked past
  one another with stony expressions at their mother's funeral. Eventually. Freddie moved to Monaco, which has no income tax.
  He bought historic, estates in France. Austria, and elsewhere, filling them with art, antiques, opera scores, and literary
  manuscripts. William founded his own energy company, Oxbow, and turned to yachting; he spent an estimated sixty-five
  million dollars to win the America's Cup, in 1992.
  With Charles as the undisputed chairman and C.E.O., Koch Industries expanded rapidly. Roger Altman, who heads the
  investment-banking firm Evercore, told me that the company's performance has been "beyond phenomenal." Charles remained
  in Wichita, with his wife and two children, guarding his privacy while supporting community charities. David moved to New
  York City, where he is an executive vice-president of the company and the C.E.O. of its Chemical Technology Group. A
  financial expert who knows Koch Industries well told me, "Charles is the company. Charles runs it." David, described by
  associates as "affable" and "a bit of a lunk," enjoyed for years the life of a wealthy bachelor. He rented a yacht in the South of
  France and bought a waterfront home in Southampton, where he threw parties that the Web site New York Social Diary likened
  to an "East Coast version of Hugh Hefher's soirees." In 1996, he married Julia Flesher, a fashion assistant. They live in a nine-
  thousand-square-foot duplex at 740 Park Avenue, with their three children. Though David's manner is more cosmopolitan, and
  more genial, than that of Charles, Brian Doherty, who has interviewed both brothers, couldn't think of a single issue on which
  the brothers disagreed.
  As their fortunes grew, Charles and David Koch became the primary underwriters of hard-line libertarian politics in
  America. Charles's goal, as Doherty described it, was to tear the government "out at the root." The brothers' first major public
  step came in 1979, when Charles persuaded David, then thirty-nine, to run for public office. They had become supporters of the
  Libertarian Party, and were backing its Presidential candidate, Ed Clark, who was running against Ronald Reagan from the
  right. Frustrated by the legal limits on campaign donations, they contrived to place David on the ticket, in the Vice-Presidential
  slot; upon becoming a candidate, he could lavish as much of his personal fortune as he wished on the campaign. The ticket's
  slogan was "The Libertarian Party has only one source of funds: You." In fact, its primary source of funds was David Koch,
  who spent more than two million dollars on the effort.
  Many of the ideas propounded in the 1980 campaign presaged the Tea Party movement. Ed Clark told The Nation that
  libertarians were getting ready to stage "a very big tea party," because people were "sick to death" of taxes. The Libertarian
  Party platform called for the abolition of the F.B.I. and the C.I.A., as well as of federal regulatory agencies, such as the
  Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Energy. The Party wanted to end Social Security, minimum-wage
  laws, gun control, and all personal and corporate income taxes; it proposed the legalization of prostitution, recreational drugs,
  and suicide. Government should be reduced to only one function: the protection of individual rights. William F. Buckley, Jr., a
  more traditional conservative, called the movement "Anarcho-Totalitarianism."
  That November, the Libertarian ticket received only one per cent of the vote. The brothers realized that their brand of
  politics didn't sell at the ballot box. Charles Koch became openly scornful of conventional politics. "It tends to be a nasty,
  corrupting business," he told a reporter at the time. "I'm interested in advancing libertarian ideas." According to Doherty's
  book, the .Kochs came to regard elected politicians as merely "actors playing out a script." A longtime confidant of the Kochs
  told Doherty that the brothers wanted to "supply the themes and words for the scripts." In order to alter the direction of
  America, they had to "influence the areas where policy ideas percolate from: academia. and think tanks."
  fter the 1980 election, Charles and David Koch receded from the public arena. But they poured more than a hundred million
  . dollars into dozens of seemingly independent organizations. Tax records indicate that in 2008 the three main Koch family
  foundations gave money.to thirty-four political and policy organizations, three of which they founded, and several of which
  they direct. The Kochs and their company have given additional millions to political campaigns, advocacy groups, and
  lobbyists. The family's subterranean financial role has fuelled suspicion on the left: Lee Fang, of the liberal blog ThinkProgress,
  has called the Kochs the billionaires behind the hate."
  Only the Kochs know precisely how much they have spent on politics. Public tax records show that between 1998 and 2008
  the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation spent more than forty-eight million dollars. The Claude R. Lambe Charitable
  Foundation, which is controlled by Charles Koch and his wife, along with two company employees and an accountant, spent
  more than twenty-eight million. The David H. Koch Charitable Foundation spent more than a hundred and twenty million.
  Meanwhile, since 1998 Koch Industries has spent more than fifty million dollars on lobbying. Separately, the company's
  political-action committee, KochPAC, has donated some eight million dollars to political campaigns, more than eighty
  per cent of it to Republicans. So far in 2010, Koch Industries leads all other energy companies in political
  contributions, as it has since 2006. In addition, during the past dozen years the Kochs and other family members
  have personally spent more than two million dollars on political contributions. In the second quarter of 2010, David
  Koch was the biggest individual contributor to the Republican Governors Association, with a million-dollar donation.
  Other gifts by the Kochs may be untraceable; federal tax law permits anonymous personal donations to politically
  active nonprofit groups.
  In recent decades, members of several industrial dynasties have spent parts of their fortunes on a conservative agenda. In
  the nineteen-eighties, the Olin family, which owns a chemicals-and-manufacturing conglomerate, became known for funding
  right-leaning thinking in academia, particularly in law schools. And during the nineties Richard Mellon Scaife, a descendant of
  Andrew Mellon, spent millions attempting to discredit President Bill Clinton. An Rabin-Havt, a vice-president at the
  Democratic-leaning Web site Media Matters, said that the Kochs' effort is Unusual, in its marshalling of corporate and personal
  funds: "Their role, in terms of financial commitments, is staggering."
  Of course, Democrats give money, too. Their most prominent donor, the financier George Soros, runs a foundation, the
  Open Society Institute, that has spent as much as a hundred million dollars a year in America. Soros has also made generous
  private contributions to various Democratic campaigns, including Obama's. But Michael Vachon, his spokesman, argued that
  Soros's giving is transparent, and that "none of his contributions are in the service of his own economic interests." The Kochs
  have given millions of dollars to nonprofit groups that criticize environmental regulation and support lower taxes for industry.
  Gus diZerega, the former friend, suggested that the Kochs' youthful idealism about libertarianism had largely devolved into a
  rationale for corporate self-interest. He said of Charles, "Perhaps he has confused making money with freedom."
  Some critics have suggested that the Kochs' approach has subverted the purpose of tax-exempt giving. By law, charitable
  foundations must conduct exclusively nonpartisan activities that promote the public welfare. A 2004 report by the National
  Committee for Responsive Philanthropy, a watchdog group, described the Kochs' foundations as being self-serving,
  concluding, "These foundations give money to nonprofit organizations that do research and advocacy on issues that impact the
  profit margin of Koch Industries."
  The Kochs have gone well beyond their immediate self-interest, however, funding organizations that aim to push the
  country in a libertarian. direction. Among the institutions that they have subsidized are the Institute for Justice, which files.
  lawsuits opposing state and federal regulations; the Institute for Humane Studies, which underwrites libertarian academics; and
  the Bill of Rights Institute, which promotes a conservative slant on the Constitution. Many of the organizations funded by the
  Kochs employ specialists who write position Papers that are subsequently quoted by politicians and pundits. David Koch has
  acknowledged that the family exerts tight ideological control. "If we're going to give a lot of money, we'll make darn sure they •
  spend it in a way that goes along with our intent," he told Doherty. "And if they make a wrong turn and start doing things we
  don't agree with, we withdraw funding."
  he Kochs' subsidization of a pro-corporate movement fulfills, in many ways, the vision laid out in a secret 1971 memo that
  Lewis Powell. then a Virginia attorney, wrote two months before he was nominated to the Supreme Court. The antiwar
  movement had turned its anger on defense contractors, such as Dow Chemical, and Ralph Nader was leading a public-interest
  crusade against corporations. Powell, writing a report for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, urged American companies to fight
  back. The greatest threat to free enterprise, he warned, was not Communism or the New Left but, rather, "respectable elements
  of society"—intellectuals, journalists, and scientists. To defeat them, he wrote, business leaders needed to wage a long-term,
  • unified campaign to change public opinion.
  Charles Koch seems to have approached both business and politics with the deliberation of an engineer. "To bring about
  social change," he told Doherty, requires "a strategy" that is "vertically and horizontally integrated," spanning "from idea
  creation to policy development to education to grassroots organizations to lobbying to litigation to political action." The project,
  he admitted, was extremely ambitious. "We have a radical philosophy," he said.
  In 1977, the Kochs provided the funds to launch the nation's first libertarian think tank, the Cato Institute. According to the
  'Center for Public Integrity, between 1986 and 1993 the Koch family gave eleven million dollars to the institute. Today Cato
  has more than a hundred full-time employees, and its experts and policy papers are widely quoted and respected by the
  mainstream media. It describes itself as nonpartisan, and its scholars have at times been critical of both parties. But it has
  consistently pushed for corporate tax cuts, reductions in social services, and laissez-faire environmental policies.
  When President Obama, in a 2008 speech, described the science on global warming as "beyond dispute," the Cato Institute
  took out a full-page ad in the Times to contradict him. Cato's resident scholars have relentlessly criticized political attempts to
  stop global warming as expensive, ineffective, and unnecessary. Ed Crane, the Cato Institute's founder and president, told me
  that "global-warming theories give the government more control of the economy."
  Cato scholars have been particularly energetic in promoting the Climategate scandal. Last year, private e-mails of climate
  scientists at the University of East Anglia, in England, were mysteriously leaked, and their exchanges appeared to suggest a
  willingness to falsify data in order to buttress the idea that global warming is real. In the two weeks after the e-mails went
  public, one Cato scholar gave more than twenty media interviews trumpeting the alleged scandal. But five independent inquiries
  have since exonerated the researchers, and nothing was found in their e-mails or data to discredit the scientific consensus on
  global warming. •
  Nevertheless, the controversy succeeded in spreading skepticism about climate change. Even though the National Oceanic
  and Atmospheric Administration recently issued a report concluding that the evidence for global warming is unequivocal, more
  Americans are convinced than at any time since 1997 that scientists have exaggerated the seriousness of global warming. The
  Kochs promote this statistic on their company's Web site but do not mention the role that their funding has played in fostering
  such doubt.
  In a 2002 memo, the Republican political consultant Frank Luntz wrote that so long as "voters believe there is no consensus
  about global warming within the scientific community' the status quo would prevail. The key for opponents of environmental
  reform, he said, was to question the science—a public-relations strategy that the tobacco industry used effectively for years to
  forestall regulation. The Kochs have funded many sources of environmental skepticism, such as the Heritage Foundation, which
  has argued that "scientific facts gathered in the past 10 years do not support the notion of catastrophic human-made warming."
  The brothers have given money to more obscure groups, too, such as the Independent Women's Forum, which opposes the
  presentation of global warming as a scientific fact in American public schools. Until 2008, the group was run by Nancy
  Pfotenhauer, a former lobbyist for Koch Industries. Mary Beth Jarvis, a vice-president of a Koch subsidiary, is on the group's
  board.
  Naomi Oreskes, a professor of history and science studies at the University of California, San Diego, is the co-author of
  "Merchants of Doubt," a new book that chronicles various attempts by American industry to manipulate public opinion on
  science. She noted that the Kochs, as the heads of "a company with refineries and pipelines," have "a lot at stake." She added,
  "If the answer is to phase out fossil fuels, a different group of people are going to be making money, so we shouldn't be
  surprised that they're fighting tooth and nail."
  David Koch told New York that he was unconvinced that global warming has been caused by human activity. Even if it has
  been, he said, the heating of the planet will be beneficial, resulting in longer growing seasons in the Northern Hemisphere. "The
  Earth will be able to support enormously more people because far greater land area will be available to produce food," he said.
  n the mid-eighties, the Kochs provided millions of dollars to George Mason University, in Arlington, Virginia, to set up another
  think tank. Now known as the Mercatus Center, it promotes itself as "the world's premier university source for market-oriented
  ideas—bridging the gap between academic ideas and real-world problems." Financial records show that the Koch family
  foundations have contributed more than thirty million dollar's to George Mason, much of which has gone to the Mercatus
  Center, a nonprofit organization. "It's ground zero for deregulation policy in Washington," Rob Stein, the Democratic strategist,
  said. It is an unusual arrangement. "George Mason is a public university, and receives public funds," Stein noted. "Virginia is
  hosting an institution that the Kochs practically control."
  The founder of the Mercatus Center is Richard Fink, formerly an economist. Fink heads Koch Industries' lobbying
  operation in Washington. In addition, he is the president of the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation, the president of the
  Claude R. Lambe Charitable Foundation, a director of the Fred C. and Mary R. Koch Foundation, and a director and co-
  founder, with David Koch, of the Americans for Prosperity Foundation.
  Fink, with his many titles, has become the central nervous system of the Kochtopus. He appears to have supplanted Ed
  Crane, the head of the Cato Institute, as the brothers' main political lieutenant. Though David remains on the board at Cato,
  Charles Koch has fallen out with Crane. Associates suggested to me that Crane had been insufficiently respectful of Charles's
  management philosophy, which he distilled into a book called "The Science of Success," and trademarked under the name
  Market-Based Management, or M.B.M. In the book. Charles recommends instilling a company's corporate culture with the
  competitiveness of the marketplace.. Koch describes M.B.M. as a "holistic system" containing "five dimensions: vision, virtue
  and talents, knowledge processes, decision rights and incentives." A top Cato Institute official told me that Charles "thinks he's
  a genius. He's the emperor, and he's convinced he's wearing clothes." Fink, by contrast, has been far more embracing of
  Charles's ideas. (Fink, like the Kochs, declined to. be interviewed.)
  At a 1995 conference for philanthropfsts, Fink adopted the language of economics when speaking about the Mercatus
  Center's purpose. He said that grant-makers should use think tanks and political-action groups to convert intellectual raw
  materials into policy "products."
  The Wall Street Journal has called the Mercatus Center "the most important think tank you've never heard of," and noted
  that fourteen of the twenty-three regulations that President George W. Bush placed on a "hit list" had been suggested first by
  Mercatus scholars. Fink told the paper that the Kochs have "other means of fighting [their] battles," and that the Mercatus
  Center does riot actively promote the company's private interests. But Thomas McGarity, a law professor at the University of
  Texas, who specializes in environmental issues, told me that "Koch has been constantly in trouble with the E.P.A., and
  Mercatus has constantly hammered on the agency." An environmental lawyer who has clashed with the Mercatus Center called
  it "a means of laundering economic aims." The lawyer explained the strategy: "You take corporate money and give it to a
  neutral-sounding think tank," which "hires people with pedigrees and academic degrees who put out credible-seeming studies.
  But they all coincide perfectly with the economic interests of their funders."
  In 1997, for instance, the E.P.A. moved to reduce surface ozone, a form of pollution caused, in part, by emissions from oil
  refineries. Susan Dudley, an economist who became a top official at the 'Mercatus Center, criticized the proposed rule. The
  E.P.A., she argued, had not taken into account that smog-free skies would result in more cases of skin cancer. She projected that
  if pollution were controlled it would cause up to eleven thousand additional cases of skin cancer each year.
  In 1999, the District of Columbia Circuit Court took 'up Dudley's smog argument. Evaluating the E.P.A. rule, the court
  found that the E.P.A. had "explicitly disregarded" the "possible health benefits of ozone." In another part of the opinion, the
  court ruled, 2-1, that the E.P.A. had overstepped its authority in calibrating standards for ozone emissions. As the Constitutional
  Accountability Center, a think tank, revealed, the judges in the majority had previously attended legal junkets, on a Montana
  ranch, that were arranged by the Foundation for Research on Economics and the Environment—a group funded by Koch family
  foundations. The judges have claimed that the ruling was unaffected by their attendance.
  deas don't happen on their own," Matt Kibbe, the president of Freedom Works, a Tea Party advocacy group, told me.
  "Throughout history, ideas need patrons." The Koch brothers, after helping to create Cato and Mercatus, concluded that think
  tanks alone were not enough to effect change. They needed a mechanism to deliver those ideas to the street, and to attract the
  public's support. in 1984, David Koch and Richard Fink created yet another organization. and Kibbe joined them. The group,
  Citizens for a Sound Economy, seemed like a grassroots movement, but according to the Center for Public Integrity it was
  sponsored principally by the Kochs, who provided $7.9 million between 1986 and 19.93. Its mission, Kibbe said, "was to take
  these heavy ideas and translate them for mass America.... We read the same literature Obama did about nonviolent
  revolutions--Saul _Minsky, Gandhi, Martin Luther King. We studied the idea of the Boston Tea Party as an example of
  nonviolent social change. We learned we needed boots on the ground to sell ideas, not candidates." Within a few years, the
  group had mobilized fifty paid field workers, in twenty-six states, to rally voters behind the Kochs' agenda. David and Charles,
  according to one participant, were "very controlling, very top down. You can't build an organization with them. They run it."
  Around this time, the brothers faced a political crisis. In 1989, the Senate Select Committee on Indian Affairs investigated
  their business and released a scathing report accusing Koch Oil of "a widespread and sophisticated scheme to steal crude oil
  from Indians and others through fraudulent mismeasuring." The Kochs admitted that they had improperly taken thirty-one
  million dollars' worth of crude oil, but said that it had been accidental. Charles Koch told committee investigators that oil
  measurement is "a very uncertain art."
  To defend its reputation, Koch IndustrieS hired Robert Strauss, then a premier Washington lobbyist; the company soon
  opened an office in the city. A grand jury was convened to investigate the allegations, but it eventually disbanded, without
  issuing criminal charges. According to the Senate report, after the committee hearings Koch operatives delved into the personal
  lives of committee staffers, even questioning an ex-wife. Senate investigators were upset by the Kochs' tactics. Kenneth Batten,
  the counsel to the Senate committee, said, "These people have amassed such unaccountable power!'
  .'
  By •1993, when Bill Clinton became President, Citizens for a Sound Economy had become a prototype for the kind of
  corporate-backed opposition campaigns that have proliferated during the Obama era. The group waged a successful assault on
  Clinton's proposed B.T.U. tax on energy, for instance, running advertisements, staging media events, and targeting opponents.
  And it mobilized anti-tax rallies outside the Capitol—rallies that NPR described as "designed to strike fear into the hearts of
  wavering Democrats." Dan Glickman, a former Democratic congressman from Wichita, who supported the B.I.U. tax, recalled,
  "I'd been in Congress eighteen years. The Kochs actually engaged against me and funded my opponent. They used a lot of
  'resources and effort—their employees, too." Glickman suffered a surprise defeat. "I can't prove it, but I think I was probably
  their victim," he said.
  The Kochs continued to disperse their money, creating slippery organizations with generic-sounding names, and this made
  it difficult to ascertain the extent of their influence in Washington. In 1990, Citizens for a Sound Economy created a spinoff
  group, Citizens for the Environment, which called acid rain and other environmental problems "myths." When the
  Pittsburgh Post-Gazette investigated the matter, it discovered that the spinoff group had "no citizen membership of its own."
  In 1997, another Senate investigation began looking into what a minority report called "an audacious plan to pour millions
  of dollars in contributions into Republican campaigns nationwide without disclosing the amount or source," in order to evade
  campaign-finance laws. A shell corporation, Triad Management, had paid more than three million dollars for attack ads in
  twenty-six House races and three Senate races. More than half of the advertising money came from an obscure nonprofit group,
  the Economic Education Trust. The Senate committee's minority report suggested that "the trust was financed in whole or in
  part by Charles and David Koch of Wichita, Kansas." The brothers were suspected of having secretly paid for the attack ads,
  most of which aired in states where Koch Industries did business. In Kansas, where Triad Management was especially active,
  the funds may have played a decisive role in four of six federal races. The Kochs, when asked by reporters if they had given the
  money, refused to comment. In i998, however, the Wall Street Journal confirmed that a consultant on the Kochs' payroll had
  been involved in the scheme. Charles Lewis, of the Center for Public Integrity, described the scandal as "historic. Triad was the
  first time a major corporation used a cutout"—a front operation—"in a threatening way. Koch Industries was the poster child of
  a company run amok."
  uring the Clinton Administration, the energy industry faced increased scrutiny and regulation. In the mid-nineties, the Justice
  Department filed two lawsuits against Koch Industries, claiming that it was responsible for more than three hundred oil spills,
  which had released an estimated three million gallons of oil into lakes and rivers. The penalty was potentially as high as two
  hundred and fourteen million dollars. In a settlement. Koch Industries paid a record thirty-million-dollar civil fine, and agreed to
  spend five million dollars on environmental projects.
  In 1999, a jury found Koch Industries guilty of negligence and malice in the deaths of two Texas teen-agers in an explosion
  that resulted from a leaky underground butane pipeline. (In 2001, the company paid an undisclosed settlement.) And in the final
  months of the Clinton Presidency the Justice Department levelled a ninety-seven-count indictment against the company, for
  covering up the discharge of ninety-one tons of benzene, a carcinogen, from its refinery in Corpus Christi, Texas. The company
  was liable •for three hundred and fifty million dollars in fines, and four Koch employees faced up to thirty-five years in prison.
  The Koch Petroleum Group eventually pleaded guilty to one criminal charge of covering up environmental violations, including
  the falsification of documents, and paid a twenty-million-dollar fine. David Uhlmann, a career prosecutor who, at the time,
  headed the environmental-crimes section at the Justice Department, described the suit as "one of the most significant cases ever
  brought under the Clean Air Act." He added, "Environmental crimes are almost always motivated by economics and arrogance,
  and in the Koch case there was a healthy dose of both."
  During the 2000 election campaign, Koch Industries spent some nine hundred thousand dollars to support the candidacies
  of George W. Bush and other Republicans. During the Bush years, Koch Industries and other fossil-fuel companies enjoyed
  remarkable prosperity. The 2005 energy bill, which Hillary Clinton dubbed the Dick Cheney Lobbyist Energy Bill, offered
  enormous subsidies and tax breaks for energy companies. The Kochs have cast themselves as deficit hawks, but, according to a
  study by Media Matters, their companies have benefitted from nearly a hundred million dollars in government contracts since
  2000.
  In 2004, Citizens for a Sound Economy was accused of illegitimately throwing its weight behind Bush's reelection. The
  group's Oregon branch had attempted to get Ralph Nader on the Presidential ballot, in order to dilute Democratic support for
  John Kerry. Critics argued that it was illegal, for a tax-exempt nonprofit organization to donate its services for partisan political
  purposes. (A complaint was filed with the Federal Election Commission; it was dismissed.)
  That year, internal rivalries at Citizens for a Sound Economy caused the organization to split apart. David Koch and Fink
  started a new group, Americans for Prosperity, and they hired Tim Phillips to run it. Phillips was a political veteran who had
  worked with Ralph Reed, the evangelical leader and Republican activist, co-founding Century Strategies, a campaign-
  consulting company that became notorious for its ties to the disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Phillips's online biography
  describes him as an expert in "grasstops" and "grassroots" political organizing. The Kochs' choice of Phillips signalled an even
  greater toughness. The conservative operative Grover Norquist, who is known for praising "throat slitters" in politics, called
  Phillips "a grownup who can make things happen."
  Last year, Phillips told the Financial Times that Americans for Prosperity had only eight thousand registered members.
  Currently, its Web site claims that the group has "1.2 million activists." Whatever its size, the Kochs' political involvement has
  been intense; a former employee of the Cato Institute told me that Americans for Prosperity "was micromanaged by the Kochs."
  And the brothers' investment may well have paid off: Americans for Prosperity, in concert with the family's other
  organizations, has been instrumental in disrupting the Obama Presidency.
  In January, 2008, Charles Koch wrote in his company newsletter that America could be on the verge of "the greatest loss of
  liberty and prosperity since the 1930s." That October, Americans for Prosperity held a conference of conservative operatives at
  a Marriott hotel outside Washington. Erick Erickson, the editor-in-chief of the conservative blog RedState.com, took the lectern,
  thanked David Koch, and vowed to "unite and fiaht ... the armies of the left!" Sodn after Obama assumed office, Americans
  for Prosperity launched "Porkulus" rallies against Obama's stimulus-spending measures. Then the Mercatus Center released a
  report claiming that stimulus funds had been directed disproportionately toward Democratic districts; eventually, the author was
  forced to correct the report, but not before Rush Limbaugh, citing.the paper, had labelled Obama's program "a slush fund," and
  Fox News and other conservative outlets had echoed the sentiment. (Phil Kerpen, the vice-president for policy at Americans for
  Prosperity, is a contributor to the Fox News Web site. Another officer at Americans for Prosperity, Walter Williams, often
  guest-hosts for Limbaugh.)
  Americans for Prosperity also created an offshoot, Patients United Now, which organized what Phillips has estimated to be
  more than three hundred rallies against health-care reform. Atone rally, an effigy of a Democratic congressman was hung; at
  another, protesters unfurled a banner depicting corpses from Dachau. The group also helped organize the "Kill the Bill" protests
  outside the Capitol, in March, where Democratic supporters of health-care reform alleged that they were spat on and cursed at.
  Phillips was a featured speaker.
  Americans for Prosperity has held at least eighty events targeting cap-and-trade legislation, which is aimed at making
  industries pay for the air pollution that they create. Speakers for the group claimed, with exaggeration, that even back-yard
  barbecues and kitchen stoves would be taxed. The group was also involved in the attacks on Obama's "green jobs" czar, Van
  Jones, and waged a crusade against international climate talks. Casting, his group as a champion of ordinary workers who would
  be hurt by environmentalists, Phillips went to Copenhagen last year and staged a protest outside the United Nations conference
  on climate change, declaring, "We're a grassroots organization.... 1 think it's unfortunate when wealthy children of wealthy
  families . want to send unemployment rates in the United States up to twenty per cent."
  Grover Norquist, who holds a weekly meeting for conservative leaders in Washington, including representatives from
  Americans for Prosperity, told me that last summer's raucous rallies were pivotal in undermining Obama's agenda. The
  Republican leadership in Congress, he said, "couldn't have clone it without August, when people went out on the streets. It
  discouraged deal-makers"—Republicans who might otherwise have worked constructively with Obama. Moreover, the
  appearance of growing public opposition to Obama affected corporate donors on K Street. "K Street is a three-billion-dollar
  weathervane," Norquist said. "When Obama was strong, the Chamber of Commerce said, 'We can work with the Obama
  Administration.' But that changed when thousands of people went into the street and 'terrorized' congressmen. August is what
  changed it. Now that Obama is weak, people are getting tough."
  As the first anniversary of Obama's election approached, David Koch came to the Washington area to attend a triumphant
  Americans for Prosperity gathering. Obama's poll numbers were falling fast. Not .a single Republican senator was working with
  the Administration on health care, or much else. Pundits were writing about Obama's political ineptitude, and Tea Party groups
  were accusing the President of initiating "a government takeover." In a speech, Koch said, "Days like today bring to reality the
  vision of our board of directors when we started this organization, five years ago." He went on, "We envisioned a mass
  movement, a state-based one, but national in scope, of hundreds of thousands of American citizens from all walks of life
  standing up and fighting for the economic freedoms that made our nation the most prosperous society in history.... Thankfully,
  the stirrings from California to Virginia, and from Texas to Michigan, show that more and more of our fellow-citizens are
  beginning to see the same truths as we do." .
  While Koch didn't explicitly embrace the Tea Party movement that day, more recently he has come close to doing so,
  praising it for demonstrating the "powerful visceral hostility in the body politic against the massive increase in government
  power, the massive efforts to socialize this country." Charles Koch, in a newsletter sent to his seventy thousand employees,
  compared the Obama Administration to the regime of the Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez. The Kochs' sense of
  imperilment is somewhat puzzling. Income inequality in America is greater than it has been since the nineteen-twenties, and
  since the seventies the tax rates of the wealthiest have fallen more than those of the middle class. Yet the brothers' message has
  evidently resonated with voters: a recent poll found that fifty-five per cent of Americans agreed that Obama is a socialist.
  Americans for Prosperity, meanwhile, has announced that it will spend an additional forty-five million dollars before the
  midterm elections, in November. Although the group is legally prohibited from directly endorsing candidates, it nonetheless
  plans to target some fifty House races and half a dozen Senate races, staging rallies, organizing door-to-door canvassing, and
  running ads aimed at "educating voters about where candidates stand."
  Though the Kochs have slowed Obama's momentum, their larger political battle is far from won. Richard Fink, interviewed
  by FrumForum.com this spring, said, "If you look at where we've gone from the year 2000 to now, with the expansion of
  government spending and a debt burden that threatens to bankrupt the country, it doesn't look very good at all." He went on, "It
  looks like the infrastructure that was built and ruirtitred has not carried the day." He suggested that the Kochs needed "to get
  more into the practical, day-to-day issues of governing."
  n 1991, David Koch was badly injured in a plane crash.in Los Angeles. He was the sole passenger in first class to survive. As he
  was recovering, a routine physical exam led to the discovery of prostate cancer. Koch received treatment, settled down, started a
  family, and reconsidered his life. As he told Portfolio, "When you're the only one who survived in the front of the plane and
  everyone.else died—yeah, you think, 'My God, the good Lord spared me for some greater purpose.' My joke is that I've been
  busy ever since, doing all the good work 1 can think of, so He can have confidence in me."
  Koch began giving spectacularly large donations to the arts and sciences. And he became a patron of cancer research,
  focussing on prostate cancer. In addition to his gifts to Sloan-Kettering, he gave fifteen million dollars to New York-
  Presbyterian Hospital, a hundred and twenty-five million to M.I.T. for cancer research, twenty million to Johns Hopkins
  University, and twenty-five million to the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, in Houston. In response to his generosity, Sloan-
  Kettering gave Koch its Excellence in Corporate Leadership Award. In 2004, President Bush named him to the National Cancer
  Advisory Board, which guides the National.Cancer Institute.
  Koch's corporate and political roles, however, may pose conflicts of interest. For example, at the same time that David
  Koch has been casting himself as a champion in the fight against cancer, Koch Industries has been lobbying to prevent the
  E.P.A. from classifying formaldehyde, which the company produces in great quantities, as a "known carcinogen" in humans.
  Scientists have long known that formaldehyde causes cancer in rats, and several major scientific studies have concluded
  that formaldehyde causes cancer in human beings—including one published last year by the National Cancer Institute, on
  •whose advisory board Koch sits. The study tracked twenty-five thousand patients for an average of forty years; subjects exposed
  to higher amounts of formaldehyde had significantly higher rates of leukemia. These results helped lead an expert panel within
  the National Institutes of Health to conclude that formaldehyde should be categorized as a known carcinogen, and be strictly
  controlled by the government. Corporations have resisted regulations on formaldehyde for decades, however, and Koch
  Industries has been a large funder of members of Congress who have stymied the E.P.A., requiring it to defer new regulations
  until more studies are completed.
  Koch Industries became a major producer of the chemical in 2005, after it bought Georgia-Pacific, the paper and wood-
  products company, for twenty-one billion dollars. Georgia-Pacific manufactures formaldehyde in its chemical division, and uses
  it to produce various wood products, such as plywood and laminates. Its annual production capacity for formaldehyde is 2.2
  billion pounds. Last December, Traylor Champion, Georgia-Pacific's vice-president of environmental affairs, sent a formal
  letter of protest to federal health authorities. He wrote that the company "strongly disagrees" with the N.I.H. panel's conclusion
  that formaldehyde should be treated as a known human carcinogen. David Koch did not recuse himself from the National
  Cancer Advisory Board, or divest himself of company stock, while his company was directly lobbying the government to keep
  formaldehyde on the market. (A board spokesperson said that the issue of formaldehyde had not come up.)
  James Fluff, an associate director at the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences, a division of the N.I.H., told
  me that it was "disgusting" for Koch to be serving on the National Cancer Advisory Board: "It's just not good for public health.
  Vested interests should not be on the board." He 'went on, "Those boards are very important. They're very influential as to
  whether N.C.I. goes into formaldehyde or not. Billions of dollars are involved in formaldehyde."
  Harold Vannus, the director of the National Cancer Institute, knows David Koch from Memorial Sloan-Kettering, which he
  used to run. He said that, at Sloan-Kettering, "a lot of people who gave to us had large business interests. The one thing we
  wouldn't tolerate in our board members is tobacco." When told of Koch Industries' stance on formaldehyde, Varmus said that
  he was "surprised."
  he David H. Koch Hall of Human Origins, at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History, is a multimedia
  exploration of the theory that mankind evolved in response to climate change. At the main entrance, viewers are confronted
  with a giant graph charting the Earth's temperature over the past ten million years, which notes that it is far cooler now than it
  was ten thousand years ago. Overhead, the text reads, "HUMANS EVOLVED IN RESPONSE TO A CHANGING WORLD." The
  message, as amplified by the exhibit's Web site, is that "key human adaptations evolved in response to
  environmental instability." Only at the end of the exhibit, under the headline "OUR SURVIVAL CHALLENGE," is it noted
  that levels of carbon dioxide are higher now than they have ever been, and that they are projected to increase
  dramatically in the next century. No cause is given for this development; no mention is made of any possible role
  played by fossil fuels. The exhibit makes it seem part of a natural continuum. The accompanying text says, "During
  the period in which humans evolved, Earth's temperature and the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
  fluctuated together." An interactive game in the exhibit suggests that humans will continue to adapt to climate
  change in the future. People may build "underground cities;" developing "short, compact bodies" or "curved spines,"
  so that "moving around in tight spaces will be no problem."
  Such ideas uncannily echo the Koch message. The company's January newsletter to employees, for instance, argueS that
  "fluctuations in the earth's climate predate humanity," and concludes, "Since we can't control Mother Nature, let's figure out
  how to get along with her changes." Joseph Romm, a physicist who runs the Web site ClirnateProgress.org, is infuriated by the
  Smithsonian's presentation. "The whole exhibit whitewashes the modern climate issue," he said. "I think the Kochs wanted to
  be seen as some sort of high-minded company, associated with the greatest natural-history and science museum in the country.
  But the truth is, the exhibit is underwritten by big-time polluters, who are underground .funders of action to stop efforts to deal
  with this threat to humanity. I think the Smithsonian should have drawn the line."
  Cristian Samper, the museum's director, said that the exhibit is not about climate change, and described Koch as "one of the
  best donors we've had, in my tenure here, because he's very interested in the content, but completely hands off." He noted, "1.
  don't know all the details.of his involvement in other issues."
  The Kochs have long depended on the public's not knowing all the details about them. They have been content to operate what
  David Koch has called "the largest company that you've never heard of." But with the growing prominence of the Tea Party,
  and with increased awareness of the Kochs' ties to the movement, the brothers may find it harder to deflect scrutiny. Recently,
  President °barna took aim at the Kochs' political network. Speaking at a Democratic National Committee fund-raiser, in
  Austin, he warned supporters that the Supreme Court's recent ruling in the Citizens United case—which struck down laws
  prohibiting direct Corporate spending on campaigns—had made it even easier for big companies to hide behind "groups with
  harmless-sounding names like Americans for Prosperity." Obama said, "They don't have to say who, exactly, Americans for
  Prosperity are. You don't know if it's a foreign-controlled corporation"—or even, he added, "a big oil company."

  A REPORTER AT 1.ARGE
  COVERT OPERATIONS
  The billionaire brothers who are waging a war against Obama.
  by Jane Mayetmo,
  (.s..
  David H. Koch in 1996. He and his brother Charles are lifelong libertarians and have quietly given more than a hundred million
  dollars to right-wing causes.
  On May 17th, a black-tie audience at the Metropolitan Opera House applauded as a tall, jovial-looking billionaire tOok the
  stage. It was the seventieth annual spring gala of American Ballet Theatre, and David H. Koch was being celebrated for his
  generosity as a member of the board of trustees; he had recently donated $2.5 million toward the company's upcoming season,
  and had given many millions before that. Koch received an award while flanked by two of the gala's co-chairs, Blaine Trump,
  in a peach-colored gown, and Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg, in emerald green. Kennedy's mother, Jacqueline Kennedy
  Onassis, had been a patron of the ballet and, coincidentally, the previous owner of a Fifth Avenue apartment that Koch had
  bought, in 1995, and then sold, eleven years later, for thirty-two million dollars, having found it too small.
  The gala marked the social ascent of Koch, who, at the age of seventy, has become one of the city's most prominent
  philanthropists. In 2008, he donated a hundred million dollars to modernize. Lincoln Center's New York State Theatre building,
  which now bears his name. He has given twenty million to the American Museum of Natural History, whose dinosaur wing is
  named for him. This spring, after noticing the decrepit state of the fountains outside the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Koch
  pledged at least ten million dollars for their renovation. He is a trustee of the museum, perhaps the most coveted social prize in

  the city, and serves on the board of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, where, after he donated more than forty million
  dollars, an endowed chair and a research center were named for him.
  One dignitary was conspicuously absent from the gala: the event's third honorary co-chair, Michelle Obama. Her office
  said that a scheduling conflict had prevented her from attending. Yet had the First Lady shared the stage with Koch it might
  have created an awkward tableau. In Washington, Koch is best known as part of a family that has repeatedly funded stealth
  attacks on the federal government, and on the Obama Administration in particular.
  With his brother Charles, who is seventy-four, David Koch owns virtually all of Koch Industries, a conglomerate,
  headquartered in Wichita. Kansas, whose annual revenues are estimated to be a hundred billion dollars. The company has
  grown spectacularly since their father, Fred, died, in 1967, and the brothers took charge. The Kochs operate oil refineries in
  Alaska, Texas, and Minnesota, and control some four thousand miles of pipeline. Koch Industries owns Brawny paper towels,
  Dixie. cups, Georgia-Pacific lumber, Staimnaster carpet, and Lycra, among other products. Forbes ranks it as the second-largest
  private company in the country, after Cargill, and its consistent profitability has made David and Charles Koch—who, years
  ago, bought out two other brothers—among the richest Men in America. Their combined fortune of thirty-five billion dollars is
  exceeded only by those of Bill Gates and Warren Buffett.
  The Kochs are longtime libertarians who believe in drastically lower personal and corporate taxes, minimal social services
  for the needy, and much less oversight of industry—especially environmental regulation. These views dovetail with the
  brothers' corporate interests. In a study released this spring, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst's Political Economy
  Research Institute named Koch Industries one of the top ten air polluters in the United States.- And Greenpeace issued a report
  identifying the company as a "kingpin of climate science denial." The report showed that, from 2005 to 2008, the Kochs vastly
  outdid ExxonMobil in giving money to organizations fighting legislation related to climate change, unclerwriting'a huge
  network of foundations, think tanks, and political front groups. Indeed, the brothers have funded opposition campaigns against
  so many Obama Administration policies—from health-care reform to the economic-stimulus program----that, in political circles,
  their ideological network is known as the Kochtopus.
  In a statement, Koch Industries said that the Greenpeace report "distorts the environmental record of our companies." And. .
  David Koch, in a recent, admiring article about him in New York, protested that the "radical press" had turned his family into
  "whipping boys," and had exaggerated its influence on American politics. But Charles Lewis, the founder of the Center for
  Public Integrity, a nonpartisan watchdog group, said, "The Kochs are on a whole different level. There's no one else who has
  spent this much money. The sheer dimension of it is what sets them apart. They have a pattern of lawbreaking, political
  manipulation, and obfuscation. I've been in Washington since Watergate, and I've never seen anything like it. They are the
  Standard Oil of our times."
  few weeks after the Lincoln Center gala, the advocacy wing of the Americans for Prosperity Foundation—an organization that
  David Koch started, in 2004—held a different kind of gathering. Over the July 4th weekend, a summit called Texas Defending
  the American Dream took place in a chilly hotel ballroom in Austin. Though Koch freely promotes his philanthropic ventures,
  lie did not attend the summit, and his name was not in evidence. And on this occasion the audience was roused not by a,dance
  performance but by a series of speakers denouncing President Barack Obama. Peggy Venable, the organizer of the summit,
  warned that Administration officials "have a socialist visiOn for this country."
  Five hundred people attended the summit, which served, in part, as a training session for Tea Party activists in Texas. An
  advertisement cast the event as a populist uprising against vested corporate power. "Today, the voices of average Americans are
  being drowned out by lobbyists and special interests," it said. "But you can do something about it." The pitch made no mention
  of its corporate funders. The White House has expressed frustration that such sponsors have largely eluded public notice. David .
  Axelrod, Obama's senior adviser, said, "What they don't say is that, in part, this is a grassroots citizens' movement brought to
  you by a bunch of oil billionaires."
  In April, 2009, Melissa Cohlmia, a company spokesperson; denied that the Kochs had direct links to the Tea Party, saying
  that Americans for Prosperity is "an independent organization and Koch companies do not in any way direct their activities."
  .Later, she issued a statement: "No funding has been provided by Koch companies, the Koch foundations, or Charles Koch or
  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771774 Date: 08/31/2015

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771774 Date: 08/31/2015
  David Koch specifically to support the tea parties." David Koch told New York, "I've never been to a tea-party event. No one
  representing the tea party has ever even approached me."
  At the lectern in Austin, however, Venable—a longtime political operative who draws a salary from Americans for
  Prosperity, and who has worked for Koch-funded political groups since 1994—spoke less warily: "We love what the Tea
  Parties are doing, because that's how we're going to take back America!" she declared, as the crowd cheered. In a subsequent
  interview, she described herself as an early member of the movement, joking, "I was part of the Tea Party before it was cool!"
  She explained that the role of Americans for Prosperity was to help "educate" Tea Party activists on policy details, and to give
  them "next-step training" after their rallies, so that their political energy could be channelled "more effectively." And she noted
  that Americans for Prosperity had provided Tea Party activists with lists of elected officials to target. She said of the Kochs.
  "They're certainly our people. David's the chairman of our board. I've certainly met with them, and I'm very appreciative Of
  what they do."
  Venable honored several Tea Party "citizen leaders" at the summit. The Texas branch of Americans for Prosperity gave its
  Blogger of the Year Award to a young woman named Sibyl West. On June 14th, West, writing on her site, described Obama as
  the "cokehead in chief." In an online thread, West speculated that the President was exhibiting symptoms of "demonic
  possession (aka schizophrenia, etc.)." The summit featured several paid speakers, including Janine Turner, the actress best
  known for her role on the television series "Northern Exposure." She declared, "They don't want our children to know about
  their rights. They don't want our children to know about a God!"
  During a catered lunch, Venable introduced Ted Cruz, a former solicitor general of Texas, who told the crowd that Obama
  was "the most radical President ever to occupy the Oval Office," and had hidden from voters a secret agenda—"the government
  taking over our economy and our lives." Countering Obama, Cruz proclaimed, was the epic fight of our generation!" As the
  crowd rose to its feet and cheered, he quoted the defiant words of a Texan at the Alamo: "Victory, or death!"
  Americans for Prosperity has worked closely with the Tea Party since the movement's inception. In the weeks before the
  first Tax Day protests, in April, 2009, Americans for Prosperity hosted a Web site offering supporters "Tea Party Talking
  Points." The Arizona branch urged people to send tea bags to Obama; the Missouri branch urged members to sign up for
  "Taxpayer Tea Party Registration" and provided directions to nine protests. The group continues to stoke the rebellion. The
  North Carolina branch recently launched a "Tea Party Finder" Web site, advertised as "a hub for all the Tea Parties in North
  Carolina."
  The anti-government fervor infusing the 2010 elections represents a political triumph for the Kochs. By giving money to
  "educate," fund, and organize Tea Party protesters, they have helped turn their private agenda into a mass movement. Bruce
  Bartlett, a conservative economist and a historian, who once worked at the National Center for Policy Analysis, a Dallas-based
  think tank that the Kochs fund, said, "The problem with the whole libertarian movement is that it's been all chiefs and no
  Indians. There haven't been any actual people, like voters, who give a crap about it. So the problem for the Kochs has been
  trying to create a movement." With the emergence of the Tea Party, he said, "everyone suddenly sees that for the first time there
  are Indians out there—people who can provide real ideological power." The Kochs, he said, are "trying to shape and control and
  channel the populist uprising into their own policies."-
  A Republican campaign consultant who has done research on behalf of Charles and David Koch said of the Tea Party, "The
  Koch brothers gave the money that founded it. It's like they put the seeds in the ground. Then the rainstorm comes, and the
  frogs come out of the mud—and they're our candidates!"
  The Kochs and their political operatives declined requests for interviews. Instead, a prominent New York public-relations
  executive who is close with the Kochs put forward two friends: George Pataki, the former governor of New York, and Mortimer
  Zuckerman, the publisher and real-estate magnate. Pataki, a Republican who received campaign donations from David Koch,
  called him "a patriot who cares deeply about his country." Zuckerman praised David's "gentle decency" and the "range of his
  public interests."
  The Republican campaign consultant said of the family's political activities, "To call them under the radar is an
  understatement. They are underground!" Another former Koch adviser said, "They're smart. This right-wing, redneck stuff
  works for them. They see this as a way to get things done without getting dirty themselves." Rob Stein, a Democratic political

  strategist who has studied the conservative movement's finances, said that the Kochs are "at the epicenter of the anti-Obama
  movement. But it's not just about Obama. They would have done the same to Hillary Clinton. They did the same with Bill •
  Clinton. They are out to destroy progressivism."
  ddly enough, the fiercely capitalist Koch family owes part of its fortune to Joseph Stalin. Fred Koch was the son of a Dutch
  printer who settled in Texas and ran a weekly newspaper. Fred attended M.I.T., where he earned a degree in chemical
  engineering. In 1927, he invented a more efficient process for converting oil into gasoline; but, according to family lore,
  America's major oil companies regarded him as a threat and shut him out of the industry. Unable to succeed at home, Koch
  found work in the Soviet Union. In the nineteen-thirties, his company trained Bolshevik engineers and helped Stalin's regime
  set up fifteen modern oil refineries. Over time, however, Stalin brutally purged several of Koch's Soviet colleagues. Koch was
  deeply affected by the experience, and regretted his collaboration. He returned to the U.S. In the headquarters of his company,
  Rock Island Oil & Refining, in Wichita, he kept photographs aimed at proving that some of those Soviet refineries had been
  destroyed in the Second World War. Gus diZerega, a former friend of Charles Koch, recalled, "As the Soviets became a
  stronger military power, Fred felt a certain amount of guilt at having helped build them up. I think it bothered him a lot."
  In 1958, Fred Koch became one of the original members of the john Birch Society, the arch-conservative group known, in
  part, for a highly skeptical view of governance and for spreading fears of a Communist takeover. Members considered President
  Dwight D. Eisenhower to be a Communist agent. In a self-published broadside, Koch claimed that the Communists have
  infiltrated both the Democrat and Republican Parties." He wrote admiringly of Benito Mussolini's suppression of Communists
  in Italy, and disparagingly of the American civil-rights movement. "The colored man looms large in the Communist plan to take
  over America," he warned. Welfare was a secret plot to attract rural blacks to cities, where they would foment "a vicious race
  war." In a 1963 speech that prefigures the Tea Party's talk of a secret 'socialist plot, Koch predicted that Communists would
  "infiltrate the highest offices of government in the U.S. until the President is a Communist, unknown to the rest of us."
  Koch married Mary Robinson, the daughter of a Missouri physician, and they had four sons: Freddie, Charles, and twins,
  David and William. John Damgard, the president of the Futures Industry Association, was David's schoolmate and friend. He
  recalled that Fred Koch was "a real John Wayne type." Koch emphasized rugged pursuits, taking his sons big-game hunting in
  Africa, and requiring them to do farm labor at the family ranch. The Kochs lived in a stone mansion on a large compound across
  from Wichita's country club; in the summer, the boys could hear their friends splashing in the pool, but they were not allowed
  to join them. "By instilling a work ethie in me at an early age, my father did me a big favor, although it didn't seem like a favor
  back then," Charles has written. "By the time I was eight, he made sure work occupied most of my spare time." David Koch
  recalled that his father also indoctrinated the boys politically. "He was constantly speaking to us children about what was wrong
  with government," he told Brian Doherty, an editor of the libertarian magazine Reason, and the author of "Radicals for
  Capitalism," a 2007 history of the libertarian movement. "It's something I grew up with—a fundamental point of view that big
  government was bad, and imposition of government controls on our lives and economic fortunes was not good."
  David attended Deerfield Academy, in Massachusetts, and Charles was sent to military school. Charles, David, and William
  all earned engineering degrees at their father's alma mater, M.I.T., and later joined the family company. Charles eventually
  assumed control, with David as his deputy; William's career at the company was less successful. Freddie went to Harvard and
  studied playwriting at the Yale School of Drama. His father reportedly disapproved of him, and punished him financially.
  (Freddie, through a spokesperson, denied this:)
  In 1967, after Fred Koch died, of a heart attack, Charles renamed the business Koch Industries, in honor of his father. Fred
  Koch's will made his sons extraordinarily wealthy. David Koch joked about his good fortune in a 2003 speech to alumni at
  Deerfield, where, after pledging twenty-five million dollars, he was made the school's sole "lifetime trustee." He said, "You
  might ask: How does David Koch happen to have the wealth to be so generous? Well, let me tell you a story. It all started when
  I was alittle boy. One day, my father gave me an apple. I soon sold it for five dollars and bought two apples and sold them for
  ten. Then I bought four apples and sold them for twenty. Well, this went on day after day, week after week, month after month,
  year after year, until my father died and left me three hundred million dollars!"
  David and Charles had absorbed their father's conservative politics, but they did not share all his views, according to
  diZerega, who befriended Charles in the mid-sixties, after meeting him while browsing in a John Birch Society bookstore in
  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771774 Date: 08/31/2015

  Wichita. Charles eventually invited him to the Kochs' mansion, to participate in an informal political-discussion group. "It was
  pretty clear that Charles thought some of the Birch Society was bullshit," diZerega recalled.
  DiZerega, who has lost touch with Charles, eventually abandOned right-wing views, and became a political-science
  professor. He credits Charles with opening his mind to political philosophy, which set him on the path to academia; Charles is
  one of three people to whom he dedicated his first book. But diZerega believes that the Koch brothers have followed a wayward
  intellectual trajectory, transferring their father's paranoia about Soviet Communism to a distrust of the U.S. government, and
  seeing its expansion, beginning with the New Deal, as a tyrannical threat to freedom. In an essay, posted on Beliefnet, diZerega
  writes, "As state socialism failed ... the target for many within these organizations shifted to any kind of regulation at all.
  'Socialism' kept. being defined downwards."
  Members of the. John Birch Society developed.an interest in a school of Austrian economists who promoted free-market
  ideals. Charles and David Koch were particularly influenced by the work of Friedrich von Hayek, the author of "The Road to
  Serfdom" (1944), which argued that centralized government planning led, inexorably, to totalitarianism. Hayek'S belief in
  unfettered capitalism has proved inspirational to many conservatives, and to anti-Soviet dissidents; lately, Tea Party supporters
  have championed his work. In June, the talk-radio host Glenn Beck, who has supported the Tea Party rebellion, promoted "The
  Road to Serfdom" on his show; the paperback soon became a No. 1 best-seller on Amazon. (Beck appears to be a fan of the
  Kochs; in the midst of arecent on-air parody of Al Gore, Beck said, without explanation, "I want to thank Charles Koch for this
  information." Beck declined to elaborate on the relationship.)
  Charles and David also became devotees of a more radical thinker, Robert LeFevre, who favored the abolition of the state
  but didn't like the label "anarchist"; he called himself an "autarchist." LeFevre liked to say that "government is a disease
  masquerading as its own cure." In 1956, he opened an institution called the Freedom School, in Colorado Springs. Brian
  Doherty, of Reason, told me that "LeFevre was an anarchist figure who won Charles's heart," and that the school was "a tiny
  world of people who thought the New Deal was a horrible mistake." According to diZerega, Charles supported the school
  financially, and even gave him money to take classes there.
  Throughout the seventies, Charles and David continued to build Koch Industries. In 1980, William, with assistance from
  Freddie, attempted to take over the company from Charles, who, they felt, had assumed autocratic control. In retaliation, the
  company's board, which answered to Charles, fired William. ("Charles runs it all with an iron hand," Bruce Bartlett, the
  economist, told me.) Lawsuits were filed, with William and Freddie on one side and Charles and David on the other. In 1983,
  Charles and David bought out their brothers' share in the company for nearly a billion dollars. But the antagonism remained,
  and litigation continued for seventeen more years, with the brothers hiring rival private investigators; in 1990, they walked past
  one another with stony expressions at their mother's funeral. Eventually. Freddie moved to Monaco, which has no income tax.
  He bought historic, estates in France. Austria, and elsewhere, filling them with art, antiques, opera scores, and literary
  manuscripts. William founded his own energy company, Oxbow, and turned to yachting; he spent an estimated sixty-five
  million dollars to win the America's Cup, in 1992.
  With Charles as the undisputed chairman and C.E.O., Koch Industries expanded rapidly. Roger Altman, who heads the
  investment-banking firm Evercore, told me that the company's performance has been "beyond phenomenal." Charles remained
  in Wichita, with his wife and two children, guarding his privacy while supporting community charities. David moved to New
  York City, where he is an executive vice-president of the company and the C.E.O. of its Chemical Technology Group. A
  financial expert who knows Koch Industries well told me, "Charles is the company. Charles runs it." David, described by
  associates as "affable" and "a bit of a lunk," enjoyed for years the life of a wealthy bachelor. He rented a yacht in the South of
  France and bought a waterfront home in Southampton, where he threw parties that the Web site New York Social Diary likened
  to an "East Coast version of Hugh Hefher's soirees." In 1996, he married Julia Flesher, a fashion assistant. They live in a nine-
  thousand-square-foot duplex at 740 Park Avenue, with their three children. Though David's manner is more cosmopolitan, and
  more genial, than that of Charles, Brian Doherty, who has interviewed both brothers, couldn't think of a single issue on which
  the brothers disagreed.
  As their fortunes grew, Charles and David Koch became the primary underwriters of hard-line libertarian politics in
  America. Charles's goal, as Doherty described it, was to tear the government "out at the root." The brothers' first major public

  step came in 1979, when Charles persuaded David, then thirty-nine, to run for public office. They had become supporters of the
  Libertarian Party, and were backing its Presidential candidate, Ed Clark, who was running against Ronald Reagan from the
  right. Frustrated by the legal limits on campaign donations, they contrived to place David on the ticket, in the Vice-Presidential
  slot; upon becoming a candidate, he could lavish as much of his personal fortune as he wished on the campaign. The ticket's
  slogan was "The Libertarian Party has only one source of funds: You." In fact, its primary source of funds was David Koch,
  who spent more than two million dollars on the effort.
  Many of the ideas propounded in the 1980 campaign presaged the Tea Party movement. Ed Clark told The Nation that
  libertarians were getting ready to stage "a very big tea party," because people were "sick to death" of taxes. The Libertarian
  Party platform called for the abolition of the F.B.I. and the C.I.A., as well as of federal regulatory agencies, such as the
  Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Energy. The Party wanted to end Social Security, minimum-wage
  laws, gun control, and all personal and corporate income taxes; it proposed the legalization of prostitution, recreational drugs,
  and suicide. Government should be reduced to only one function: the protection of individual rights. William F. Buckley, Jr., a
  more traditional conservative, called the movement "Anarcho-Totalitarianism."
  That November, the Libertarian ticket received only one per cent of the vote. The brothers realized that their brand of
  politics didn't sell at the ballot box. Charles Koch became openly scornful of conventional politics. "It tends to be a nasty,
  corrupting business," he told a reporter at the time. "I'm interested in advancing libertarian ideas." According to Doherty's
  book, the .Kochs came to regard elected politicians as merely "actors playing out a script." A longtime confidant of the Kochs
  told Doherty that the brothers wanted to "supply the themes and words for the scripts." In order to alter the direction of
  America, they had to "influence the areas where policy ideas percolate from: academia. and think tanks."
  fter the 1980 election, Charles and David Koch receded from the public arena. But they poured more than a hundred million
  . dollars into dozens of seemingly independent organizations. Tax records indicate that in 2008 the three main Koch family
  foundations gave money.to thirty-four political and policy organizations, three of which they founded, and several of which
  they direct. The Kochs and their company have given additional millions to political campaigns, advocacy groups, and
  lobbyists. The family's subterranean financial role has fuelled suspicion on the left: Lee Fang, of the liberal blog ThinkProgress,
  has called the Kochs the billionaires behind the hate."
  Only the Kochs know precisely how much they have spent on politics. Public tax records show that between 1998 and 2008
  the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation spent more than forty-eight million dollars. The Claude R. Lambe Charitable
  Foundation, which is controlled by Charles Koch and his wife, along with two company employees and an accountant, spent
  more than twenty-eight million. The David H. Koch Charitable Foundation spent more than a hundred and twenty million.
  Meanwhile, since 1998 Koch Industries has spent more than fifty million dollars on lobbying. Separately, the company's
  political-action committee, KochPAC, has donated some eight million dollars to political campaigns, more than eighty
  per cent of it to Republicans. So far in 2010, Koch Industries leads all other energy companies in political
  contributions, as it has since 2006. In addition, during the past dozen years the Kochs and other family members
  have personally spent more than two million dollars on political contributions. In the second quarter of 2010, David
  Koch was the biggest individual contributor to the Republican Governors Association, with a million-dollar donation.
  Other gifts by the Kochs may be untraceable; federal tax law permits anonymous personal donations to politically
  active nonprofit groups.
  In recent decades, members of several industrial dynasties have spent parts of their fortunes on a conservative agenda. In
  the nineteen-eighties, the Olin family, which owns a chemicals-and-manufacturing conglomerate, became known for funding
  right-leaning thinking in academia, particularly in law schools. And during the nineties Richard Mellon Scaife, a descendant of
  Andrew Mellon, spent millions attempting to discredit President Bill Clinton. An Rabin-Havt, a vice-president at the
  Democratic-leaning Web site Media Matters, said that the Kochs' effort is Unusual, in its marshalling of corporate and personal
  funds: "Their role, in terms of financial commitments, is staggering."
  Of course, Democrats give money, too. Their most prominent donor, the financier George Soros, runs a foundation, the
  Open Society Institute, that has spent as much as a hundred million dollars a year in America. Soros has also made generous
  private contributions to various Democratic campaigns, including Obama's. But Michael Vachon, his spokesman, argued that
  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771774 Date: 08/31/2015

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771774 Date: 08/31/2015
  Soros's giving is transparent, and that "none of his contributions are in the service of his own economic interests." The Kochs
  have given millions of dollars to nonprofit groups that criticize environmental regulation and support lower taxes for industry.
  Gus diZerega, the former friend, suggested that the Kochs' youthful idealism about libertarianism had largely devolved into a
  rationale for corporate self-interest. He said of Charles, "Perhaps he has confused making money with freedom."
  Some critics have suggested that the Kochs' approach has subverted the purpose of tax-exempt giving. By law, charitable
  foundations must conduct exclusively nonpartisan activities that promote the public welfare. A 2004 report by the National
  Committee for Responsive Philanthropy, a watchdog group, described the Kochs' foundations as being self-serving,
  concluding, "These foundations give money to nonprofit organizations that do research and advocacy on issues that impact the
  profit margin of Koch Industries."
  The Kochs have gone well beyond their immediate self-interest, however, funding organizations that aim to push the
  country in a libertarian. direction. Among the institutions that they have subsidized are the Institute for Justice, which files.
  lawsuits opposing state and federal regulations; the Institute for Humane Studies, which underwrites libertarian academics; and
  the Bill of Rights Institute, which promotes a conservative slant on the Constitution. Many of the organizations funded by the
  Kochs employ specialists who write position Papers that are subsequently quoted by politicians and pundits. David Koch has
  acknowledged that the family exerts tight ideological control. "If we're going to give a lot of money, we'll make darn sure they •
  spend it in a way that goes along with our intent," he told Doherty. "And if they make a wrong turn and start doing things we
  don't agree with, we withdraw funding."
  he Kochs' subsidization of a pro-corporate movement fulfills, in many ways, the vision laid out in a secret 1971 memo that
  Lewis Powell. then a Virginia attorney, wrote two months before he was nominated to the Supreme Court. The antiwar
  movement had turned its anger on defense contractors, such as Dow Chemical, and Ralph Nader was leading a public-interest
  crusade against corporations. Powell, writing a report for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, urged American companies to fight
  back. The greatest threat to free enterprise, he warned, was not Communism or the New Left but, rather, "respectable elements
  of society"—intellectuals, journalists, and scientists. To defeat them, he wrote, business leaders needed to wage a long-term,
  • unified campaign to change public opinion.
  Charles Koch seems to have approached both business and politics with the deliberation of an engineer. "To bring about
  social change," he told Doherty, requires "a strategy" that is "vertically and horizontally integrated," spanning "from idea
  creation to policy development to education to grassroots organizations to lobbying to litigation to political action." The project,
  he admitted, was extremely ambitious. "We have a radical philosophy," he said.
  In 1977, the Kochs provided the funds to launch the nation's first libertarian think tank, the Cato Institute. According to the
  'Center for Public Integrity, between 1986 and 1993 the Koch family gave eleven million dollars to the institute. Today Cato
  has more than a hundred full-time employees, and its experts and policy papers are widely quoted and respected by the
  mainstream media. It describes itself as nonpartisan, and its scholars have at times been critical of both parties. But it has
  consistently pushed for corporate tax cuts, reductions in social services, and laissez-faire environmental policies.
  When President Obama, in a 2008 speech, described the science on global warming as "beyond dispute," the Cato Institute
  took out a full-page ad in the Times to contradict him. Cato's resident scholars have relentlessly criticized political attempts to
  stop global warming as expensive, ineffective, and unnecessary. Ed Crane, the Cato Institute's founder and president, told me
  that "global-warming theories give the government more control of the economy."
  Cato scholars have been particularly energetic in promoting the Climategate scandal. Last year, private e-mails of climate
  scientists at the University of East Anglia, in England, were mysteriously leaked, and their exchanges appeared to suggest a
  willingness to falsify data in order to buttress the idea that global warming is real. In the two weeks after the e-mails went
  public, one Cato scholar gave more than twenty media interviews trumpeting the alleged scandal. But five independent inquiries
  have since exonerated the researchers, and nothing was found in their e-mails or data to discredit the scientific consensus on
  global warming. •
  Nevertheless, the controversy succeeded in spreading skepticism about climate change. Even though the National Oceanic
  and Atmospheric Administration recently issued a report concluding that the evidence for global warming is unequivocal, more
  Americans are convinced than at any time since 1997 that scientists have exaggerated the seriousness of global warming. The

  Kochs promote this statistic on their company's Web site but do not mention the role that their funding has played in fostering
  such doubt.
  In a 2002 memo, the Republican political consultant Frank Luntz wrote that so long as "voters believe there is no consensus
  about global warming within the scientific community' the status quo would prevail. The key for opponents of environmental
  reform, he said, was to question the science—a public-relations strategy that the tobacco industry used effectively for years to
  forestall regulation. The Kochs have funded many sources of environmental skepticism, such as the Heritage Foundation, which
  has argued that "scientific facts gathered in the past 10 years do not support the notion of catastrophic human-made warming."
  The brothers have given money to more obscure groups, too, such as the Independent Women's Forum, which opposes the
  presentation of global warming as a scientific fact in American public schools. Until 2008, the group was run by Nancy
  Pfotenhauer, a former lobbyist for Koch Industries. Mary Beth Jarvis, a vice-president of a Koch subsidiary, is on the group's
  board.
  Naomi Oreskes, a professor of history and science studies at the University of California, San Diego, is the co-author of
  "Merchants of Doubt," a new book that chronicles various attempts by American industry to manipulate public opinion on
  science. She noted that the Kochs, as the heads of "a company with refineries and pipelines," have "a lot at stake." She added,
  "If the answer is to phase out fossil fuels, a different group of people are going to be making money, so we shouldn't be
  surprised that they're fighting tooth and nail."
  David Koch told New York that he was unconvinced that global warming has been caused by human activity. Even if it has
  been, he said, the heating of the planet will be beneficial, resulting in longer growing seasons in the Northern Hemisphere. "The
  Earth will be able to support enormously more people because far greater land area will be available to produce food," he said.
  n the mid-eighties, the Kochs provided millions of dollars to George Mason University, in Arlington, Virginia, to set up another
  think tank. Now known as the Mercatus Center, it promotes itself as "the world's premier university source for market-oriented
  ideas—bridging the gap between academic ideas and real-world problems." Financial records show that the Koch family
  foundations have contributed more than thirty million dollar's to George Mason, much of which has gone to the Mercatus
  Center, a nonprofit organization. "It's ground zero for deregulation policy in Washington," Rob Stein, the Democratic strategist,
  said. It is an unusual arrangement. "George Mason is a public university, and receives public funds," Stein noted. "Virginia is
  hosting an institution that the Kochs practically control."
  The founder of the Mercatus Center is Richard Fink, formerly an economist. Fink heads Koch Industries' lobbying
  operation in Washington. In addition, he is the president of the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation, the president of the
  Claude R. Lambe Charitable Foundation, a director of the Fred C. and Mary R. Koch Foundation, and a director and co-
  founder, with David Koch, of the Americans for Prosperity Foundation.
  Fink, with his many titles, has become the central nervous system of the Kochtopus. He appears to have supplanted Ed
  Crane, the head of the Cato Institute, as the brothers' main political lieutenant. Though David remains on the board at Cato,
  Charles Koch has fallen out with Crane. Associates suggested to me that Crane had been insufficiently respectful of Charles's
  management philosophy, which he distilled into a book called "The Science of Success," and trademarked under the name
  Market-Based Management, or M.B.M. In the book. Charles recommends instilling a company's corporate culture with the
  competitiveness of the marketplace.. Koch describes M.B.M. as a "holistic system" containing "five dimensions: vision, virtue
  and talents, knowledge processes, decision rights and incentives." A top Cato Institute official told me that Charles "thinks he's
  a genius. He's the emperor, and he's convinced he's wearing clothes." Fink, by contrast, has been far more embracing of
  Charles's ideas. (Fink, like the Kochs, declined to. be interviewed.)
  At a 1995 conference for philanthropfsts, Fink adopted the language of economics when speaking about the Mercatus
  Center's purpose. He said that grant-makers should use think tanks and political-action groups to convert intellectual raw
  materials into policy "products."
  The Wall Street Journal has called the Mercatus Center "the most important think tank you've never heard of," and noted
  that fourteen of the twenty-three regulations that President George W. Bush placed on a "hit list" had been suggested first by
  Mercatus scholars. Fink told the paper that the Kochs have "other means of fighting [their] battles," and that the Mercatus
  Center does riot actively promote the company's private interests. But Thomas McGarity, a law professor at the University of
  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771774 Date: 08/31/2015

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771774 Date: 08/31/2015
  Texas, who specializes in environmental issues, told me that "Koch has been constantly in trouble with the E.P.A., and
  Mercatus has constantly hammered on the agency." An environmental lawyer who has clashed with the Mercatus Center called
  it "a means of laundering economic aims." The lawyer explained the strategy: "You take corporate money and give it to a
  neutral-sounding think tank," which "hires people with pedigrees and academic degrees who put out credible-seeming studies.
  But they all coincide perfectly with the economic interests of their funders."
  In 1997, for instance, the E.P.A. moved to reduce surface ozone, a form of pollution caused, in part, by emissions from oil
  refineries. Susan Dudley, an economist who became a top official at the 'Mercatus Center, criticized the proposed rule. The
  E.P.A., she argued, had not taken into account that smog-free skies would result in more cases of skin cancer. She projected that
  if pollution were controlled it would cause up to eleven thousand additional cases of skin cancer each year.
  In 1999, the District of Columbia Circuit Court took 'up Dudley's smog argument. Evaluating the E.P.A. rule, the court
  found that the E.P.A. had "explicitly disregarded" the "possible health benefits of ozone." In another part of the opinion, the
  court ruled, 2-1, that the E.P.A. had overstepped its authority in calibrating standards for ozone emissions. As the Constitutional
  Accountability Center, a think tank, revealed, the judges in the majority had previously attended legal junkets, on a Montana
  ranch, that were arranged by the Foundation for Research on Economics and the Environment—a group funded by Koch family
  foundations. The judges have claimed that the ruling was unaffected by their attendance.
  deas don't happen on their own," Matt Kibbe, the president of Freedom Works, a Tea Party advocacy group, told me.
  "Throughout history, ideas need patrons." The Koch brothers, after helping to create Cato and Mercatus, concluded that think
  tanks alone were not enough to effect change. They needed a mechanism to deliver those ideas to the street, and to attract the
  public's support. in 1984, David Koch and Richard Fink created yet another organization. and Kibbe joined them. The group,
  Citizens for a Sound Economy, seemed like a grassroots movement, but according to the Center for Public Integrity it was
  sponsored principally by the Kochs, who provided $7.9 million between 1986 and 19.93. Its mission, Kibbe said, "was to take
  these heavy ideas and translate them for mass America.... We read the same literature Obama did about nonviolent
  revolutions--Saul _Minsky, Gandhi, Martin Luther King. We studied the idea of the Boston Tea Party as an example of
  nonviolent social change. We learned we needed boots on the ground to sell ideas, not candidates." Within a few years, the
  group had mobilized fifty paid field workers, in twenty-six states, to rally voters behind the Kochs' agenda. David and Charles,
  according to one participant, were "very controlling, very top down. You can't build an organization with them. They run it."
  Around this time, the brothers faced a political crisis. In 1989, the Senate Select Committee on Indian Affairs investigated
  their business and released a scathing report accusing Koch Oil of "a widespread and sophisticated scheme to steal crude oil
  from Indians and others through fraudulent mismeasuring." The Kochs admitted that they had improperly taken thirty-one
  million dollars' worth of crude oil, but said that it had been accidental. Charles Koch told committee investigators that oil
  measurement is "a very uncertain art."
  To defend its reputation, Koch IndustrieS hired Robert Strauss, then a premier Washington lobbyist; the company soon
  opened an office in the city. A grand jury was convened to investigate the allegations, but it eventually disbanded, without
  issuing criminal charges. According to the Senate report, after the committee hearings Koch operatives delved into the personal
  lives of committee staffers, even questioning an ex-wife. Senate investigators were upset by the Kochs' tactics. Kenneth Batten,
  the counsel to the Senate committee, said, "These people have amassed such unaccountable power!'
  .'
  By •1993, when Bill Clinton became President, Citizens for a Sound Economy had become a prototype for the kind of
  corporate-backed opposition campaigns that have proliferated during the Obama era. The group waged a successful assault on
  Clinton's proposed B.T.U. tax on energy, for instance, running advertisements, staging media events, and targeting opponents.
  And it mobilized anti-tax rallies outside the Capitol—rallies that NPR described as "designed to strike fear into the hearts of
  wavering Democrats." Dan Glickman, a former Democratic congressman from Wichita, who supported the B.I.U. tax, recalled,
  "I'd been in Congress eighteen years. The Kochs actually engaged against me and funded my opponent. They used a lot of
  'resources and effort—their employees, too." Glickman suffered a surprise defeat. "I can't prove it, but I think I was probably
  their victim," he said.
  The Kochs continued to disperse their money, creating slippery organizations with generic-sounding names, and this made
  it difficult to ascertain the extent of their influence in Washington. In 1990, Citizens for a Sound Economy created a spinoff
  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771774 Date: 08/31/2015

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771774 Date: 08/31/2015
  group, Citizens for the Environment, which called acid rain and other environmental problems "myths." When the
  Pittsburgh Post-Gazette investigated the matter, it discovered that the spinoff group had "no citizen membership of its own."
  In 1997, another Senate investigation began looking into what a minority report called "an audacious plan to pour millions
  of dollars in contributions into Republican campaigns nationwide without disclosing the amount or source," in order to evade
  campaign-finance laws. A shell corporation, Triad Management, had paid more than three million dollars for attack ads in
  twenty-six House races and three Senate races. More than half of the advertising money came from an obscure nonprofit group,
  the Economic Education Trust. The Senate committee's minority report suggested that "the trust was financed in whole or in
  part by Charles and David Koch of Wichita, Kansas." The brothers were suspected of having secretly paid for the attack ads,
  most of which aired in states where Koch Industries did business. In Kansas, where Triad Management was especially active,
  the funds may have played a decisive role in four of six federal races. The Kochs, when asked by reporters if they had given the
  money, refused to comment. In i998, however, the Wall Street Journal confirmed that a consultant on the Kochs' payroll had
  been involved in the scheme. Charles Lewis, of the Center for Public Integrity, described the scandal as "historic. Triad was the
  first time a major corporation used a cutout"—a front operation—"in a threatening way. Koch Industries was the poster child of
  a company run amok."
  uring the Clinton Administration, the energy industry faced increased scrutiny and regulation. In the mid-nineties, the Justice
  Department filed two lawsuits against Koch Industries, claiming that it was responsible for more than three hundred oil spills,
  which had released an estimated three million gallons of oil into lakes and rivers. The penalty was potentially as high as two
  hundred and fourteen million dollars. In a settlement. Koch Industries paid a record thirty-million-dollar civil fine, and agreed to
  spend five million dollars on environmental projects.
  In 1999, a jury found Koch Industries guilty of negligence and malice in the deaths of two Texas teen-agers in an explosion
  that resulted from a leaky underground butane pipeline. (In 2001, the company paid an undisclosed settlement.) And in the final
  months of the Clinton Presidency the Justice Department levelled a ninety-seven-count indictment against the company, for
  covering up the discharge of ninety-one tons of benzene, a carcinogen, from its refinery in Corpus Christi, Texas. The company
  was liable •for three hundred and fifty million dollars in fines, and four Koch employees faced up to thirty-five years in prison.
  The Koch Petroleum Group eventually pleaded guilty to one criminal charge of covering up environmental violations, including
  the falsification of documents, and paid a twenty-million-dollar fine. David Uhlmann, a career prosecutor who, at the time,
  headed the environmental-crimes section at the Justice Department, described the suit as "one of the most significant cases ever
  brought under the Clean Air Act." He added, "Environmental crimes are almost always motivated by economics and arrogance,
  and in the Koch case there was a healthy dose of both."
  During the 2000 election campaign, Koch Industries spent some nine hundred thousand dollars to support the candidacies
  of George W. Bush and other Republicans. During the Bush years, Koch Industries and other fossil-fuel companies enjoyed
  remarkable prosperity. The 2005 energy bill, which Hillary Clinton dubbed the Dick Cheney Lobbyist Energy Bill, offered
  enormous subsidies and tax breaks for energy companies. The Kochs have cast themselves as deficit hawks, but, according to a
  study by Media Matters, their companies have benefitted from nearly a hundred million dollars in government contracts since
  2000.
  In 2004, Citizens for a Sound Economy was accused of illegitimately throwing its weight behind Bush's reelection. The
  group's Oregon branch had attempted to get Ralph Nader on the Presidential ballot, in order to dilute Democratic support for
  John Kerry. Critics argued that it was illegal, for a tax-exempt nonprofit organization to donate its services for partisan political
  purposes. (A complaint was filed with the Federal Election Commission; it was dismissed.)
  That year, internal rivalries at Citizens for a Sound Economy caused the organization to split apart. David Koch and Fink
  started a new group, Americans for Prosperity, and they hired Tim Phillips to run it. Phillips was a political veteran who had
  worked with Ralph Reed, the evangelical leader and Republican activist, co-founding Century Strategies, a campaign-
  consulting company that became notorious for its ties to the disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff. Phillips's online biography
  describes him as an expert in "grasstops" and "grassroots" political organizing. The Kochs' choice of Phillips signalled an even
  greater toughness. The conservative operative Grover Norquist, who is known for praising "throat slitters" in politics, called
  Phillips "a grownup who can make things happen."

  UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05771774 Date: 08/31/2015
  Last year, Phillips told the Financial Times that Americans for Prosperity had only eight thousand registered members.
  Currently, its Web site claims that the group has "1.2 million activists." Whatever its size, the Kochs' political involvement has
  been intense; a former employee of the Cato Institute told me that Americans for Prosperity "was micromanaged by the Kochs."
  And the brothers' investment may well have paid off: Americans for Prosperity, in concert with the family's other
  organizations, has been instrumental in disrupting the Obama Presidency.
  In January, 2008, Charles Koch wrote in his company newsletter that America could be on the verge of "the greatest loss of
  liberty and prosperity since the 1930s." That October, Americans for Prosperity held a conference of conservative operatives at
  a Marriott hotel outside Washington. Erick Erickson, the editor-in-chief of the conservative blog RedState.com, took the lectern,
  thanked David Koch, and vowed to "unite and fiaht ... the armies of the left!" Sodn after Obama assumed office, Americans
  for Prosperity launched "Porkulus" rallies against Obama's stimulus-spending measures. Then the Mercatus Center released a
  report claiming that stimulus funds had been directed disproportionately toward Democratic districts; eventually, the author was
  forced to correct the report, but not before Rush Limbaugh, citing.the paper, had labelled Obama's program "a slush fund," and
  Fox News and other conservative outlets had echoed the sentiment. (Phil Kerpen, the vice-president for policy at Americans for
  Prosperity, is a contributor to the Fox News Web site. Another officer at Americans for Prosperity, Walter Williams, often
  guest-hosts for Limbaugh.)
  Americans for Prosperity also created an offshoot, Patients United Now, which organized what Phillips has estimated to be
  more than three hundred rallies against health-care reform. Atone rally, an effigy of a Democratic congressman was hung; at
  another, protesters unfurled a banner depicting corpses from Dachau. The group also helped organize the "Kill the Bill" protests
  outside the Capitol, in March, where Democratic supporters of health-care reform alleged that they were spat on and cursed at.
  Phillips was a featured speaker.
  Americans for Prosperity has held at least eighty events targeting cap-and-trade legislation, which is aimed at making
  industries pay for the air pollution that they create. Speakers for the group claimed, with exaggeration, that even back-yard
  barbecues and kitchen stoves would be taxed. The group was also involved in the attacks on Obama's "green jobs" czar, Van
  Jones, and waged a crusade against international climate talks. Casting, his group as a champion of ordinary workers who would
  be hurt by environmentalists, Phillips went to Copenhagen last year and staged a protest outside the United Nations conference
  on climate change, declaring, "We're a grassroots organization.... 1 think it's unfortunate when wealthy children of wealthy
  families . want to send unemployment rates in the United States up to twenty per cent."
  Grover Norquist, who holds a weekly meeting for conservative leaders in Washington, including representatives from
  Americans for Prosperity, told me that last summer's raucous rallies were pivotal in undermining Obama's agenda. The
  Republican leadership in Congress, he said, "couldn't have clone it without August, when people went out on the streets. It
  discouraged deal-makers"—Republicans who might otherwise have worked constructively with Obama. Moreover, the
  appearance of growing public opposition to Obama affected corporate donors on K Street. "K Street is a three-billion-dollar
  weathervane," Norquist said. "When Obama was strong, the Chamber of Commerce said, 'We can work with the Obama
  Administration.' But that changed when thousands of people went into the street and 'terrorized' congressmen. August is what
  changed it. Now that Obama is weak, people are getting tough."
  As the first anniversary of Obama's election approached, David Koch came to the Washington area to attend a triumphant
  Americans for Prosperity gathering. Obama's poll numbers were falling fast. Not .a single Republican senator was working with
  the Administration on health care, or much else. Pundits were writing about Obama's political ineptitude, and Tea Party groups
  were accusing the President of initiating "a government takeover." In a speech, Koch said, "Days like today bring to reality the
  vision of our board of directors when we started this organization, five years ago." He went on, "We envisioned a mass
  movement, a state-based one, but national in scope, of hundreds of thousands of American citizens from all walks of life
  standing up and fighting for the economic freedoms that made our nation the most prosperous society in history.... Thankfully,
  the stirrings from California to Virginia, and from Texas to Michigan, show that more and more of our fellow-citizens are
  beginning to see the same truths as we do." .
  While Koch didn't explicitly embrace the Tea Party movement that day, more recently he has come close to doing so,
  praising it for demonstrating the "powerful visceral hostility in the body politic against the massive increase in government

  power, the massive efforts to socialize this country." Charles Koch, in a newsletter sent to his seventy thousand employees,
  compared the Obama Administration to the regime of the Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez. The Kochs' sense of
  imperilment is somewhat puzzling. Income inequality in America is greater than it has been since the nineteen-twenties, and
  since the seventies the tax rates of the wealthiest have fallen more than those of the middle class. Yet the brothers' message has
  evidently resonated with voters: a recent poll found that fifty-five per cent of Americans agreed that Obama is a socialist.
  Americans for Prosperity, meanwhile, has announced that it will spend an additional forty-five million dollars before the
  midterm elections, in November. Although the group is legally prohibited from directly endorsing candidates, it nonetheless
  plans to target some fifty House races and half a dozen Senate races, staging rallies, organizing door-to-door canvassing, and
  running ads aimed at "educating voters about where candidates stand."
  Though the Kochs have slowed Obama's momentum, their larger political battle is far from won. Richard Fink, interviewed
  by FrumForum.com this spring, said, "If you look at where we've gone from the year 2000 to now, with the expansion of
  government spending and a debt burden that threatens to bankrupt the country, it doesn't look very good at all." He went on, "It
  looks like the infrastructure that was built and ruirtitred has not carried the day." He suggested that the Kochs needed "to get
  more into the practical, day-to-day issues of governing."
  n 1991, David Koch was badly injured in a plane crash.in Los Angeles. He was the sole passenger in first class to survive. As he
  was recovering, a routine physical exam led to the discovery of prostate cancer. Koch received treatment, settled down, started a
  family, and reconsidered his life. As he told Portfolio, "When you're the only one who survived in the front of the plane and
  everyone.else died—yeah, you think, 'My God, the good Lord spared me for some greater purpose.' My joke is that I've been
  busy ever since, doing all the good work 1 can think of, so He can have confidence in me."
  Koch began giving spectacularly large donations to the arts and sciences. And he became a patron of cancer research,
  focussing on prostate cancer. In addition to his gifts to Sloan-Kettering, he gave fifteen million dollars to New York-
  Presbyterian Hospital, a hundred and twenty-five million to M.I.T. for cancer research, twenty million to Johns Hopkins
  University, and twenty-five million to the M. D. Anderson Cancer Center, in Houston. In response to his generosity, Sloan-
  Kettering gave Koch its Excellence in Corporate Leadership Award. In 2004, President Bush named him to the National Cancer
  Advisory Board, which guides the National.Cancer Institute.
  Koch's corporate and political roles, however, may pose conflicts of interest. For example, at the same time that David
  Koch has been casting himself as a champion in the fight against cancer, Koch Industries has been lobbying to prevent the
  E.P.A. from classifying formaldehyde, which the company produces in great quantities, as a "known carcinogen" in humans.
  Scientists have long known that formaldehyde causes cancer in rats, and several major scientific studies have concluded
  that formaldehyde causes cancer in human beings—including one published last year by the National Cancer Institute, on
  •whose advisory board Koch sits. The study tracked twenty-five thousand patients for an average of forty years; subjects exposed
  to higher amounts of formaldehyde had significantly higher rates of leukemia. These results helped lead an expert panel within
  the National Institutes of Health to conclude that formaldehyde should be categorized as a known carcinogen, and be strictly
  controlled by the government. Corporations have resisted regulations on formaldehyde for decades, however, and Koch
  Industries has been a large funder of members of Congress who have stymied the E.P.A., requiring it to defer new regulations
  until more studies are completed.
  Koch Industries became a major producer of the chemical in 2005, after it bought Georgia-Pacific, the paper and wood-
  products company, for twenty-one billion dollars. Georgia-Pacific manufactures formaldehyde in its chemical division, and uses
  it to produce various wood products, such as plywood and laminates. Its annual production capacity for formaldehyde is 2.2
  billion pounds. Last December, Traylor Champion, Georgia-Pacific's vice-president of environmental affairs, sent a formal
  letter of protest to federal health authorities. He wrote that the company "strongly disagrees" with the N.I.H. panel's conclusion
  that formaldehyde should be treated as a known human carcinogen. David Koch did not recuse himself from the National
  Cancer Advisory Board, or divest himself of company stock, while his company was directly lobbying the government to keep
  formaldehyde on the market. (A board spokesperson said that the issue of formaldehyde had not come up.)
  James Fluff, an associate director at the National Institute for Environmental Health Sciences, a division of the N.I.H., told
  me that it was "disgusting" for Koch to be serving on the National Cancer Advisory Board: "It's just not good for public health.

  Vested interests should not be on the board." He 'went on, "Those boards are very important. They're very influential as to
  whether N.C.I. goes into formaldehyde or not. Billions of dollars are involved in formaldehyde."
  Harold Vannus, the director of the National Cancer Institute, knows David Koch from Memorial Sloan-Kettering, which he
  used to run. He said that, at Sloan-Kettering, "a lot of people who gave to us had large business interests. The one thing we
  wouldn't tolerate in our board members is tobacco." When told of Koch Industries' stance on formaldehyde, Varmus said that
  he was "surprised."
  he David H. Koch Hall of Human Origins, at the Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History, is a multimedia
  exploration of the theory that mankind evolved in response to climate change. At the main entrance, viewers are confronted
  with a giant graph charting the Earth's temperature over the past ten million years, which notes that it is far cooler now than it
  was ten thousand years ago. Overhead, the text reads, "HUMANS EVOLVED IN RESPONSE TO A CHANGING WORLD." The
  message, as amplified by the exhibit's Web site, is that "key human adaptations evolved in response to
  environmental instability." Only at the end of the exhibit, under the headline "OUR SURVIVAL CHALLENGE," is it noted
  that levels of carbon dioxide are higher now than they have ever been, and that they are projected to increase
  dramatically in the next century. No cause is given for this development; no mention is made of any possible role
  played by fossil fuels. The exhibit makes it seem part of a natural continuum. The accompanying text says, "During
  the period in which humans evolved, Earth's temperature and the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
  fluctuated together." An interactive game in the exhibit suggests that humans will continue to adapt to climate
  change in the future. People may build "underground cities;" developing "short, compact bodies" or "curved spines,"
  so that "moving around in tight spaces will be no problem."
  Such ideas uncannily echo the Koch message. The company's January newsletter to employees, for instance, argueS that
  "fluctuations in the earth's climate predate humanity," and concludes, "Since we can't control Mother Nature, let's figure out
  how to get along with her changes." Joseph Romm, a physicist who runs the Web site ClirnateProgress.org, is infuriated by the
  Smithsonian's presentation. "The whole exhibit whitewashes the modern climate issue," he said. "I think the Kochs wanted to
  be seen as some sort of high-minded company, associated with the greatest natural-history and science museum in the country.
  But the truth is, the exhibit is underwritten by big-time polluters, who are underground .funders of action to stop efforts to deal
  with this threat to humanity. I think the Smithsonian should have drawn the line."
  Cristian Samper, the museum's director, said that the exhibit is not about climate change, and described Koch as "one of the
  best donors we've had, in my tenure here, because he's very interested in the content, but completely hands off." He noted, "1.
  don't know all the details.of his involvement in other issues."
  The Kochs have long depended on the public's not knowing all the details about them. They have been content to operate what
  David Koch has called "the largest company that you've never heard of." But with the growing prominence of the Tea Party,
  and with increased awareness of the Kochs' ties to the movement, the brothers may find it harder to deflect scrutiny. Recently,
  President °barna took aim at the Kochs' political network. Speaking at a Democratic National Committee fund-raiser, in
  Austin, he warned supporters that the Supreme Court's recent ruling in the Citizens United case—which struck down laws
  prohibiting direct Corporate spending on campaigns—had made it even easier for big companies to hide behind "groups with
  harmless-sounding names like Americans for Prosperity." Obama said, "They don't have to say who, exactly, Americans for
  Prosperity are. You don't know if it's a foreign-controlled corporation"—or even, he added, "a big oil company."
