Press TV: The Carlyle group is one of America's ten biggest military contracting
firms. This firm specializes in what they call 'crony capitalism'. That
means they make money by gaining access to the world's leading
decision-makers.
The Carlyle group was founded in the late 80s by a fellow named Rubenstein. It is a highly influential multi-sector group, mostly defense related companies and corporations. In the 90s, it started bringing on board the Bush family and their good friends the Bin Laden family. The two families became the key members of their board. The Group stands accused of involvement in and benefiting from 9/11 attacks.
