From Whitney Webb. “While the WEF’s Young Global Leader program has recently become infamous, it follows the model of a much older program and think tank established with the ill-begotten gains of Cecil Rhodes”
As usual with Whitney Webb, this is a detailed and carefully referenced article. Bit of a long read, but for anyone interested in history, it starts way back and gets to Chatham House and the Council on Foreign Relations which are almost one and the same. Worth the long read in my opinion. Also worth following some of the links it has.
