Secret EU payments to NGOs, to brainwash the public, to run activists’ campaigns, to infiltrate, control and harm the economy – a new Stasi organization?

Developping story.

The German newspaper Die Welt was the first to disclose the EU Commission’s payments to NGO’s for political activism.

The EU Commission paid generously to ideologically aligned NGOs to influence public opinion in the Commission’s direction but also the opinion and, therefore, the voting of Members of the EU Parliament. In addition , the EU Commission paid to such NGO’s to launch legal proceedings against companies in the EU, to make it financially riskier for those companies not to adhere to the EU Commission’s behavioral standards and to be further exposed to a negative public opinion. The EU Commission paid the NGOs for political activism and to brainwash the EU population.

And all such contracts and payment were made secretly.

It is inherent of an NGO, a Non-Governmental Organisation, not to be linked, paid, directed or instructed by the government.

Die Welt calls for full transparency. Even further, NGOs need to clearly identify themselves if they are paid by or if they work for the government and as consequence, they cannot be called NGO but must identify as “government organization”.

Remembering the East German Communist Dictatorship: the Stasi, the East German secret police, used many East German citizens and citizen organizations for influencing and controlling public opinion, to brainwash, to infiltrate and to be activists for the East German Dictatorship. All such relationships and conspiracies were kept secret and those who were acting for and on behalf of the Dictatorship were called “Informeller Mitarbeiter” or “IM” – translated as “informal cooperator”.

Any NGO paid and directed by the government, or by the EU Commission, need to officially show the emblem of an “informal cooperator” (IM) and must account for the monies received.

This transparency is very important to protect democracy, the freedom of expression and believe, to assure protection against state abuse and to allow general constitutional control of the government. As well, the government must account for all tax payer money expenses. Otherwise it would be a real Stasi-regime and an abuse of tax payer money.

No secrect contracts and orders, no under-cover operations, no secret funding, on all levels of politics, of regional and state governments and on the level of the EU Commission.
