On 13 June 2025, retired Colonel Richard Kemp appeared on BBC Radio’s Stephen Nolan Show to discuss Israeli military strikes on

Listeners were not told that Kemp is a director and trustee of UK-AWIS, a British charity that raises money to support the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF).

Not surprising - in line with a curious absence of any information about the ‘think tanks’ rolled out as ‘experts’

Claudia #Major, die kriegslüsterne Stimme der #StiftungWissenschaftUndPolitik, einer Organisation, die einst die Organisation Gehlen, der Vorläufer des BND, gegründet hat. Dazu muss man wissen, die Organisation Gehlen war ein Verbund ehemaliger Nazis des militärischen Nachrichtendienstes Fremde Heere Ost. Da paßt es ins Bild, dass die Dame nun auch Senior Vice President des German Marshall Fund geworden ist.

"This brief provides a detailed analysis of a first-of-its-kind, publicly available repository of U.S. think tank funding — www.thinktankfundingtracker.org. The repository tracks funding from foreign governments, the U.S. government, and Pentagon contractors to the top 50 think tanks in the United States over the past five years. It serves as a vital research guide for anyone wishing to learn more about the funding sources of prominent U.S. think tanks.

The repository gives a five-point transparency score to each of the top 50 think tanks in the U.S., a scale created by the authors based on five binary questions. Based on this criteria, nine of the top 50 think tanks (18 percent) are fully transparent, while 23 think tanks (46 percent) are partially transparent. Most concerning, the remaining 18 think tanks (36 percent) are “dark money” think tanks, entirely opaque in their funding without revealing donors.

In the past five years, foreign governments and foreign government-owned entities donated more than $110 million to the top 50 think tanks in the United States. The most generous donor countries were the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, and Qatar, which contributed $16.7 million, $15.5 million, and $9.1 million to U.S. think tanks, respectively. The Atlantic Council, Brookings Institution, and German Marshall Fund received the most money from foreign governments since 2019: $20.8 million, $17.1 million, and $16.1 million, respectively.

In that same period, the top 100 defense companies have contributed more than $34.7 million to the top 50 think tanks"

"Browse our publicly available repository of foreign government, U.S. government, and Pentagon contractor funding of the U.S.’s top 50 foreign policy think tanks going back to 2019.

Over a third of the top foreign policy think tanks in the U.S. publicly disclose little or no information about their funders. Yet, most think tanks provide at least some information about how they are funded. The Think Tank Funding Tracker allows users to explore these funding relationships for themselves. Start by searching for a donor or think tank below or use the browse function in the top right corner."
