What is the US Council for World Freedom and how does it pretain to John McCain?

Answer 1

Best Answer - Chosen by Voters

John McCain was a Principal in the organization while Major General John K. Singlaub was the Chairman. In 1984 the group's support for anticommunist insurgent groups around the world increased greatly. In 1981, USCWF incorporated as a nonprofit group. When the Congress cut off all military support to the contras in 1984, WACL and the USCWF were among several private organizations which stepped in to fill the gap. In 1982, it applied for and received tax-exempt status--501(c)(3)--from the Internal Revenue Service. This status was revoked by the IRS in December 1987 because of complaints lodged against the group for its activities with the contra support network. In the same year, Singlaub assisted WACL in Canada in cleaning up its image by ridding itself of its pro-Nazi leadership

Answer 2

Its an Anti-Semite group that McCain belonged to. Wonder how the Jewish voters will feel about that?

Answer 3

I think its for new world order, and a one world economy, and I think he supports it. But, I don't, I don't want the USA to have the same economy as do 3rd world countries.

Answer 4

He was/is a member.

Looks like a good old boy club for right wing extremists. A perfect fit for folks who want to look good to republicans. Would not shock me one bit to know he was involved.
