Bermuda

Bermuda is a British Overseas Territory. It has been described in Forbes magazine as one of the world's best tax havens. Richard Murphy, World's Best Tax Havens, 7 June 2010, accessed 23 Sept 2011
==Activities==
Henry Bellingham, the parliamentary undersecretary of state at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office with responsibility for Bermuda, calls it "the jewel in the crown" of Britain's overseas territories. He argues those who call it a tax haven are missing the point and that the island's economic success was the envy of many countries and that Britain might “do well to observe the successes of Bermuda’s fiscal system”. Britain he said, makes a net financial gain from the island:
:“There are a number of world-class UK companies that have subsidiaries in Bermuda, or do business there because of the advantages of the Bermuda economy,” Mr Bellingham said. “That helps the UK businesses. If the UK insisted on higher taxes in Bermuda, or did what France did with some of her territories, that is integrate them into France so they pay the same rates of tax as France, that might be attractive in the short term but it would take away some of the unique advantages of the Bermudian economy.
:“I think that the UK gets a lot of advantages out of Bermuda, because a number of our companies are making bigger profits as a result of the success of the Bermuda economy and that is helping the UK Exchequer. I would say that more than offsets the small cost for the UK of carrying out the commitments that we have.”
Tax campaigner Richard Murphy called Bellingham "a fool" for such "gushing". "Bermuda has a serious financial crisis and is in debt,' he wrote in his blog. "And like all tax havens it survives on the basis of deceit and illicit financial flows. Is that what he really wants to promote? Actually apparently so:
:Mr Bellingham added that the level of financial regulation in Bermuda “we think strikes the right balance between transparency, compliance with international norms and also provides a very competitive environment for business”.
Murphy continues: "the man is going out of his way to promote anticompetitive practices, market distortions, mistrust, tax avoidance and evasion, poor governance and the next breakdown of capitalism. At least he is honest about it. And in the meantime North King’s Lynn within his constituency is one of the poorest areas of the UK. And he does nothing for it. Worse, the reforms he’s supporting will make life there very much worse."

==Zionist Activism==
Bernard-Henri Lévy's attachment to Israel animates much of his anti-Muslim politics. He is an uncritical supporter. Shortly after Israel's assault on Gaza which left more than 1,400, a third of them children, dead, Levy wrote a long piece portraying Israel as the victim.Bernard-Henri Lévy, Reportage from Israel/Gaza, The Huffington Post, 20 January 2009 He rejected the criticisms levelled against Israel in the Goldstone report, adding:
:I don't think that Israel's main problem is to appease the world...I don't think that what Israel does will change the way the world judges it. Israel is prejudged...I don't know of another country in the world that has been in a state of war for 60 years and hasn't abandoned its democratic principles and has not lost its vitality.Bernard Henri-Levy on Obama, Netanyahu and Goldstone, The Middle East Pulse, 23 October 2009
According to Bernard-Henri Lévy 'the veil is an invitation to rape'. Laila Lalami observes:
:It is interesting, too, that Lévy demands for himself that which he is not willing to give others. In 2004 he hired the designer Andrée Putman to renovate his vacation home in Tangier. The home lies next to the famous Café Hafa, whose regulars once included Paul Bowles, Tennessee Williams and Jean Genet, and which has unparalleled views of the Mediterranean. Patrons of the cafe can no longer enjoy an unobstructed view, however, because during the renovations Lévy constructed a wall around his terrace, where his wife, the actress and singer Arielle Dombasle, likes to sunbathe. Lévy reportedly wanted to protect her from the eyes of the men at the Café Hafa. Unveiling only goes one way, it seems.Laila Lalami, Beyond the Veil, The Nation, 10 December 2007

Bernard Aronson

Oliver North sought Aronson's advice on persuading moderates to support President Reagan's policy on Nicaragua.
::Mr. Aronson and three other Democrats known together as The Gang of Four urged the Administration to install liberal Nicaraguans in contra leadership positions. (His colleagues were Mr. Leiken, the lobbyist Bruce P. Cameron, and Penn Kemble of the human rights group Freedom House.) In 1986 he wrote a speech for President Reagan on the eve of a crucial House vote on contra aid, seeking to appease Congressional Democrats by promising to improve the contras' performance on human rights.Washington at Work; An Unlikely Diplomat Seizes the Opportunity To Shape Latin Policy, by Clifford Krauss, New York Times, 25 April 1990.
Aronson has accused Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez of being a 'fake Democrat'. The article which carried his comments noted that he 'works for a private equity firm that manages investments in Venezuela and elsewhere.'Venezuela's Fake Democrat, Bernard Aronson, New York Times, 14 August 2004.

Bernard Marantelli

Bernard Marantelli worked for the London-based PR company Lexington Communications, directed by Mike Craven, having been recruited as a consultant in February 2003. He helped Lexington with its work for the UK biotechnology-industry lobby group, the Agricultural Biotechnology Council (ABC), particularly during the UK's Public Debate on GM. The ABC was founded in 2002 by Monsanto along with Bayer CropScience, BASF, Dow Agrosciences, Dupont and Syngenta. 
Prior to Lexington Marantelli worked on PR for Monsanto. Recruited in 1998, his first role was to coordinate 'scientific communication' for Monsanto's Government and Public Affairs office in London. In 2000 he was transferred to the Scientific Affairs team in Monsanto's European headquarters Brussels where his responsibilities are said to have included 'issues management' and 'scientific communication' for the Europe-Africa region.
His exact role during the crisis over GM-contaminated food aid in southern Africa is not known. In late October 2002, Monsanto's electronic newsletter, 'The Biotech Advantage,' carried the headline 'Academics Say Africans Going Hungry Because of Activist Scare Tactics.' The activists in question turned out to be the staff of a Catholic theological centre and a Zambian agricultural college. Their 'academic' attackers, by contrast, included AgBioWorld's founders, CS Prakash and Greg Conko, as well as AgBioWorld supporter Andrew Apel.
