NXIVM Cult Summit on Necker Island; Atlas might have Shrugged but Raniere hid.

Some are wondering why I’ve spent so much time on the NXIVM gathering of the cults, Princes and Princesses on Necker Island in the late spring of 2010?
While much like the infamous meeting of senior officials of the Nazi German regime at the Wannsee Conference, held in the Berlin suburb of Wannsee in opulent surrounding on January 20 1942 to plan the elimination of the Jews in the “final solution” or the Apalachin Meeting of the American Mafia held on November 14, 1957. In this historic summit of Mafiosi from all over the United States, Canada and Italy that took place at the palatial New York estate of mafia boss Joseph Barbara, leading mobsters cut up their La Cosa Nostra operations such as gambling, casinos and narcotics among themselves. NXIVM held this summit to conspire and organize and restructure its illegal enterprise.

So let’s look at the NXIVM Necker Island summit. All three of these meeting had many similarities. All took place in luxurious surrounding, where guests dined on and drank the finest food and wines, none of the participants wanted their attendance to become public knowledge, but in all three cases they did and in all three there was a lot more going on than just a little socializing by old friends.The spring of 2010 saw NXIVM in a bind. Continued negative press here and in the mainstream media had severely cut enrollment in the Capital Region. In spite of this, the increasingly paranoid and agoraphobic cult leader Keith Raniere was loath to leave the region, in fact he hid. Under these circumstances Sara Bronfman called a conference of the leading figures of NXIVM to plot the future of the cult.

Sara picked up the phone to her old buddy Richard Branson and arrangements were made for a plush conference in beautiful surrounding. Sara was in charge of the exclusive guest list which included Nancy Salzman and Jim Del Negro as Keith Raniere’s personal emissaries.
After pleasantries, cocktails and sex attendees got down to the business at hand. NXIVM's Executive Board was created with key positions given out to trusted personal. Mexico was becoming more and more important in the strategic plans of NXIVM and members of the board reflected this.
Emiliano Salinas son of the corrupt former Mexican president, Carlos Salinas de Gortari was named Executive of Standards. Salinas has been raised in extreme luxury since the day he was born. Salinas is co-owner of Mexico City's NXIVM Center. He is also an international trainer with the company. Saliinas is a much hated figure in Mexico. His self-aggrandizing speeches accusing the poor of Mexico for being largely responsible for the violence gripping the country are right out of NXIVM’s Ayn Rand’s playbook. Claiming the poor in Mexico have a culture of self-victimization that is to blame for the plight of Mexico, he calls on them to use Gandhi style tactics against the Mexican drug cartels, no doubt his family has massive holdings in the Mexican coffin business.
Next Mexican national and rumored gay lover of Salinas, Alejandro Betancourt was named Marketing Executive. Betancourt co-owns and operates Mexico City's NXIVM Center. This center is said to be the single most lucrative center in the NXIVM ‘s Empire. Many of Mexico’s wealthy elites, who have grown rich on the corruption so prevalent in their society are drawn to NXIVM’s message that they are wealthy because they deserve it and the poor themselves are largely responsible for their own problems.Next Mark Vicente the film maker who only made one film was named Executive of Enrollment. A charismatic speaker who is wholly dependent on NXIVM for his living, he has teamed with the Canadians Mark Hildreth, Kristin Kreuk and Allison Mack to sell NXIVM poison in Vancouver. While Salinas is Mexican royalty, these three stooges have a vast following among teen and preteen girls. Prefect combination really, money from Mexico and girls from Canada.

Clare Bronfman named herself Chief of Operations. The failed equestrian is also in charge of most of NXIVM’s charitable trusts; I will have much more on that later this week.

Rounding out the board we have former Keith Raniere sex toy, Lauren Salzman Chairman of Education. Described as one of the leading authorities in Rational Inquiry, she is said to have been presented to Keith Raniere as a sexual gift by her mother, cult priestess Nancy Salzman.

And finally Karen Unterreiner was named Executive of Humanities. Unterreiner the aging grand dame of NXIVM is perhaps one of Raniere’s must loyal toadies. She would prefer to die than betray her guru.

Well once the board was hashed out and hurt feeling stroked, about who was in and who was out the attendee’s began to plot the massive logistics of moving massive amounts of money around the glode to avoid taxation .

NXIVM had been using an inefficient method of transferring large amounts of cash across the border into the US. The Mexican operation is almost always conducted in cash and in US$. The money once across the border was then simply sent by mail to a series of PO boxes in the capital region. Juliana Vicente NX# 5876, mother of Mark Vicente was given the task of emptying these boxes each week, but the sheer volume of these pickup was starting to drawn attention.

On the Canadian side of the operation, Siobahn Hotaling; NXIVM head trainer from Albany is an alleged Canadian bag lady who was making weekly trips to Canada, she then tells border guards that she is visiting friends in Canada while it is alleged that her true mission is teaching NXIVM classes { which is illegal under Canadian Law as she is registered as a tourist with no work permit} and then transporting the tuition fees collected for the NXIVM courses taught in Canada and to pick up payments in cash from the Vancouver operation.

Obviously both these operation are amateurish and fraught with peril. Attendees brainstormed about moving funds to various Caribbean locations. I am afraid that many of these conversations were held away from prying ears.

Participants having set up their new power structure and with new money laundering ideas being batted around went back home to preach to the masses, the very rich masses or young masses that is.

And what about Nector island you ask? Well the great house where many of these pictures were taken burnt to the ground

Goodnight
