by Abby Sears, November 13, 2012 http://gretawire.foxnewsinsider.com/2012/11/13/businessman-gives-his-take-on-jillkelleys-role-as-honorary-consul-to-south-korea/ The Petraeus sex scandal took yet another bizarre turn today when audio emerged from a 911 call Tampa socialite Jill Kelley made over the weekend to report trespassers on her property. In the call, Kelley asks police for diplomatic protection and tells them she is an honorary consul to South Korea. The Korean Embassy confirmed to ABC News that Kelley was in fact an honorary consul to the country as of August 2012. One businessman is shedding light on Kelleys honorary title.TransGas Development President Adam Victor told us he met Kelley in August at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, where she was introduced to him as a close friend of then-CIA Director David Petraeus who had many business contacts in South Korea. Victor arranged for her to visit his New York office to discuss potential opportunities in the South Korean coal industry, but he began to question Kelleys credentials after the meeting. David Petraeus arranged for her to get that position, Victor said of Kelleys honorary consul title. She may have contacts but she hasnt negotiated large deals before. Victor said Kelley asked for a coal gasification finders fee of two percent if the [$80 million] deal materialized a fee Victor said far exceeds market standards. Why would Petraeus appoint her to that position? he asked. She got a position she wasnt qualified for through David Petraeus and I have no idea why. I feel I wasted my time. Um, could it be because, throughout the Bush years 2003-2008, Jill Kelley's brother-inlaw was GRAYSON WOLFE, whom we can assume had considerable expertise in the areas of extorting astronomical up-front fees (AKA bribes) for projects that literally fall apart ("quick, more sawdust in the concrete mixer!") or never materialize at all, evading audits with triple-ledger accounting, and loading millions in cash onto private jets? Business skill sets like those are prerequisites in today's military-industrialHomeland Security complex. Grayson Wolfe, ex-husband of Jill Kelley's unstable sister Natalie, is founding partner in Akkadian Private Ventures, LLC, and was a Bush appointee in Iraq reconstruction. http://www.linkedin.com/in/graysonwolfe

Who is Managing Director of Akkadian Private Ventures? Ross J. Connelly. Connelly was CEO of Bechtel Energy Resources Corp. 1991-1995, overseeing various developmental efforts in Southeast Asia and the Middle East. In 1998 he ran for U.S. Congress in Maine and subsequently served as Maine State Chairman for Bush for President campaign. http://www.akkadianpv.com/readsenior.php?id=2 Grayson has designed and executed developmental projects & transactions principally in the power, oil & gas sectors He served as Director of Broader Middle East Initiatives and Iraqi Reconstruction and Special Assistant to the Chief Operating Officer at the Export-Import Bank of the United States.

From January to August 2004, Grayson was Manager of the 'Private Sector Development Office' of the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) in Baghdad, Iraq. http://beforeitsnews.com/opinionconservative/2012/11/bombshell-or-coincidence-natalie-khawams-ex-husband-graysonwolfe-was-director-of-broader-middle-east-initiatives-and-iraqi-reconstruction-andspecial-assistant-to-the-chief-operating-offi-2524886.html Bechtel, a company with lifelong ties to the Republican party, was awarded contracts for rebuilding the Iraqi infrastructure worth $2.4 billion <source:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reconstruction_of_Iraq> Bechtel is right up there with Halliburton in terms of "war is good for business." [See bottom of this post for accounts of the plunder of Iraq's resources under the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) under CheneyBush's "spoils system" in Iraq, restricted to Neocons and Republican loyalists.] Kelley herself, alas, only had what amounts to a A.A. degree in Republican Business Administration: http://www.theatlanticwire.com/national/2012/11/jill-kelley-ran-bogus-cancer-charitywants-diplomatic-protection/58981/ --http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/11/13/jillkelley-charity-david-petraeus_n_2124213.html?1352846847 The latest Jill Kelley revelation [is] a rough one because it cuts right into her reputation as a lauded socialite in the Tampa area, a woman who knew all the top brass and threw them fancy parties with expensive cigars and buffets of expensive caviar. Some of these parties were funded by a bogus cancer charity that she set up with her doctor husband, Scott. The Kelleys established the Dr. Kelley Cancer Foundation in 2007 with the exclusive mission "to conduct cancer research and to grant wishes to terminally ill adult cancer patients," according to The Huffington Post. Things did not exactly go as planned.

"By the end of 2007, the charity was bankrupt, having conveniently spent exactly the same amount of money as it started with, $157,284 -- and not a dollar more, according to its 990 financial form," HuffPost's Jason Cherkis and Christina Wilkie report"Of that, $43,317 was billed as 'Meals and Entertainment,' $38,610 was assigned to 'Travel,' another $25,013 was spent on legal fees, and $8,822 went to 'Automotive Expenses.' The Kelleys also listed smaller expenses that appear excessive for a charity operating from a private home, including $12,807 for office expenses and supplies, and $7,854 on utilities and telephones. "Jill Kelley's sister, Natalie Khawam, was listed as the only other officer of the charity. This past April, Khawam filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, listing over $3.6 million in liabilities, including $53,000 owed to the IRS and $800,000 owed to her sister and brother-in-law." --but she DID have a lot of experience schmoozing with the type of folks one might meet in Iraq and Libya: According to the Washington Post, Kelley (whose parents are immigrants from Lebanon) acted as a "go-between for Central Command with Lebanese and other Middle Eastern government officials." Indeed, she seems to have been a regular on the diplomatic circuit: Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) told CNN yesterday that he had met her once or twice at British embassy events. http://gawker.com/5960211/petraeus-pal-jill-kelley-loaned-800000-to-herunstable-twin-sister
