Career
In the 1930s, Violet became involved with the Comite Secret pour l’Action Revolutionaire, better known as La Cagoule, (a "far-right political cult modeled on a Freemasonic movement, complete with Masonic-style rites and rituals... a predecessor of Licio Gelli's P-2" led by Eugene Deloncle and Jean Filliol).[2]
After WW2
Violet worked for the SDECE, and was an influential behind-the-scenes actor in the post World War II Europe, and worked with Opus Dei. Jean Violet started Le Cercle in the 1950s around its titular leader, Antoine Pinay.
During the 1970 Washington meeting of Le Cercle he asked for funds to upscale the Great Oil Sniffer Hoax.
1970s
Violet was reputed to have been involved in the 1970 smear of President Pompidou's wife (the Markovic affair).
Violet, together with Otto von Habsburg, founded the Académie Européenne des Sciences Politiques, a Brussels-based ultra-conservative Paneuropa think tank.[2]
Death
Jean Violet may have died in a car accident.[3]
