Bewildered By Bilderberg
NPR ^ | 21 May 2014 | Linton Weeks

The Bilderberg annual conference is convening at the end of May in Denmark. Or so it's reported.

For folks who have never heard of Bilderberg, it's an invitation-only confab of high-powered people who jawbone about world issues. Its mission, according to its official website, is at once simple and complex: "to foster dialogue between Europe and North America."

There was a time when Bilderberg — like the Illuminati and Trilateral Commission — evoked secrecy and political puppetry and global strings-pulling. There was a time when conspiracy theorists assigned great power and underhanded chicanery to the leaders who gathered at Bilderberg. There was a time when some people believed historic choices that affect whole nations — and the flow of history — were made clandestinely at Bilderberg.

That time is now.

The 2014 Bilderberg convention, some websites will tell you, may decide to devalue the dollar or plant a tracking device in every car or mobilize military forces somewhere in the world. And attendees may not be meeting in Denmark after all.

Journalists are not allowed to report on the proceedings. Most of the goings-on during the three-day do are top secret. The result: deep mistrust on the part of many observers.

So here is the problem. On one hand, Bilderberg declares that its closed-door policy allows high-powered participants to speak candidly at the conference. On the other hand, that adherence to secrecy does not reassure — or span the gap with — the world at large.

Call it the Bilderberg Bridge Problem.

Google Frecking

Earlier in May we set up a Google Alert for the term "Bilderberg" to learn random and serendipitous things about the group. (We call this infogathering method Google Frecking.) Our mail queue became a mass of accusations, musings and maledictions.

The reality is that as neo capitalist Russia and China grow economically, they are becoming sustainable world powers.They can and do act independently and are having less and less concern how their actions are perceived by the West. The West has far less power today than it once did to assert its will or have a definitive influence. Gatherings of the Trilateral commission, meetings such as Bildenberg are having much less significance.

Bilderberg is probably the logical endgame of mankind’s jettisoning tradition and monarchy in favor of “Enlightenment” rights-worship, and the noisy self-flattery and self-deception that goes with it. There has to be an elite somewhere. In a materialist universe, the leaders will be.... the maximal materialists.

Is it true that the Bilderberg meetings were started by an Himmler SS man following WWII?
