Breaking the Silence: Bilderberg Exposed . . .

[OneBlueSky]

When presidents, prime ministers, bankers and generals rub shoulders with European royalty at the annual secret Bilderberg meeting, they discuss the business of running markets and wars without being accountable to the public.

Bilderberg's Plans for the World

The Bilderberg group's secret annual meeting determines many of the headlines and news developments that you will read about in the coming months. But the Establishment media completely black out any news of it and remain strangely reluctant to lift the curtain hiding this major event. A number of high-ranking members of the press who attend the annual meeting are sworn to secrecy, and news editors are held responsible if any of their journalists "inadvertently" report on what takes place. Yet few have ever heard of this exclusive and secretive group of the world's most powerful financiers, industrialists and political figures.

Although the Bilderberg group has lost some of its past lustre, on 5 to 8 May 2005 it met at Rottach-Egern (in Munich, Germany) under its usual secrecy that makes a freemasonry lodge look like a playgroup. Staff at the hotel were photographed and put through special clearance. From porters to senior managers, the employees were warned (under the threat of never working in their country again) about the consequences of revealing any details of the guests to the press.

The discussions that the Bilderbergers engaged in this year and the consensus they reached—deciding how the world should deal with European–American relations, the Middle East powder keg, the Iraq war, the global economy and how to stave off war in Iran—will influence the course of Western civilisation and the future of the entire planet. Ironically, they met behind closed doors, protected by a phalanx of armed guards.

American Criminals: Public Policy in Private

In the United States, the Logan Act states explicitly that it is against the law for federal officials to attend secret meetings with private citizens to develop public policies. Although Bilderberg 2005 was missing one of its luminaries—US State Department official John Bolton, who was testifying before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations—the US Government was well represented in Rottach-Egern by: Allan E. Hubbard, Assistant to the President for Economic Policy and director of the National Economic Council; William Luti, Deputy Under-Secretary of Defense; James Wolfensohn, outgoing president of the World Bank; and Paul Wolfowitz, Deputy Secretary of State, an ideologue of the Iraq war and incoming president of the World Bank. By attending the Bilderberg 2005 meeting, these people broke United States federal law.

1. C'mon. Bilderburg is a social club

Nexus isn't exactly the model of clear and reasonable reporting, anyway. They occasionally publish some intelligent articles, but not if they can help it.

Bilderburg, the CFR, the Trilateral Commission, Skull and Bones -- they're only the lunch clubs for the Establishment. The real baddies operate in the shadows, and don't work out of clubs.

2. The fact that the real baddies operate in the shadows

doesn't mean Bilderberg and other such groups are inconsequential.

Would you say that you are a model of clear and reasonable reporting?

3. Exactly.

It's like the conspiracy theories about the Council on Foreign Relations that were a staple of the right for decades. The commonality is a naive, almost childish confusion of symtom and cause. The CFR isn't an organization where the foreign policy elite hatch their plans; what it is is evidence that a foreign policy elite *exists* -- which isn't exactly a secret, and is perhaps also unavoidable. Similarly for Bilderberg. Plots aren't formed at meetings that everyone knows are going on.

6. the Logan Act didn't stop Cheney's energy powwow

i know nothing about the B'ber group except that eventually every deep politics person will eventually bump into them.

my "considered position" is that this is the way capital would organize itself whether you call it "bilderberger," "mafia," or late for dinner.
