The Bilderbergs and the New World Order
The Bilderberg Meets Secretly in Toronto
The Bilderberg, the highest echelon of the global financial and
political elite, recently met at the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce
Leadership Center (nicknamed the "Bohemian Grove of Canada" ) on the outskirts
of King City, a suburb of Toronto.
At the meeting, which lasted from May 30 to June 2, the Bilderberg
discussed global control of the air, water and public health, as well as the
possible multi-billion dollar sale of the Canadian government-owned electric
utility Ontario Hydro, according to informed sources quoted by The Spotlight.
As usual, the mainstream media completely ignored the event. This
was not surprising, since many media power brokers regularly attend the
meetings, including representatives of the major TV networks and the New York
Times.
However, this year one major Canadian newspaper shattered the wall
of silence in a spectacular fashion. The Toronto Star, one of the few remaining
independent newspapers in Canada, ran a front page story on May 30 under the
headline "Black Plays Host to World Leaders."
John Deverell, a Toronto Star business reporter, broke the story,
based on a detailed news release from the Toronto-based New World Order
Intelligence Update. Among the more than 100 attendees from around the world,
Deverell listed U.S. Defense Secretary William Perry, Prime Minister Jean
Chretien, Henry Kissinger, the queens of Netherlands and Spain "as well as other
business, political and academic elite."
"For 42 years," Deverell reported, "the secretive organization has
devoted itself to strengthening the Atlantic military alliance and economies...
The guest list and agenda for the four-day conference are secret."
According to media magnate and permanent Bilderberg member Conrad
Black, the ban on reporters "makes discussion more intimate and candid. There
are no massive indiscretions, but the exchanges can be quite heated." This is a
polite way of saying that members can secretly speak their minds about whatever
grandiose schemes of world conquest they envision themselves as having the
divine right to execute, without fearing that their words will ever be heard by
the public.
This tactic is very similar to the Non-Attribution Rule used at
Council on Foreign Relations meetings, which prevents statements made by
attendees from being reported in the media. Many media CEOs, news anchors and
influential members of the press fill seats in the CFR.
The Bilderberg and the New World Order:
As far as global politics and finance go, the Bilderberg is the
top of the pyramid, the all-seeing eye gazing upon the construction of a New
World Order . This one-world system of governance, lurking in the shadows cast
by flowery language about our new "global village," will transfer nearly all
economic and political power into the hands of a small group of the world elite.
According to Bilderberg's draft document of 1989, "Bilderberg
takes its name from the Bilderberg Hotel in Oosterbeek, Holland, where the first
meeting took place in May 1954. That pioneering meeting grew out of the concern
expressed by many leading citizens on both sides of the Atlantic that Western
Europe and North America were not working together as closely as they should on
matters of critical importance. It was felt that regular, off-the-record
discussions would help create a better understanding of the complex forces and
major trends affecting Western nations in the difficult post-war period."
According to Conrad Black, the Bilderberg "was set up in the
mid-fifties by Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands.... [Meetings] normally
include senior officials of the governments of all the countries represented,
with a wide swath of enlightened business, academic, media and military
leaders...."
Prince Bernhard gave the go-ahead, but the idea for the Bilderberg
belonged to Joseph H. Retinger, a man who could make an appointment with the
President of the United States just by picking up the telephone. In 1952,
Retinger proposed a secret conference to Prince Bernhard which would involve the
NATO leaders in an open and frank discussion on international affairs behind
closed doors.
The Prince thought it was a grand idea, and they formed a
committee to plan the conference. Berhhard briefed the Truman administration
about the meeting in 1952, and although the idea was warmly embraced in the
U.S., the first American counterpart group was not formed until the Eisenhower
administration.
CIA Director General Walter Bedell Smith and C.D. Jackson were key
players in organizing the American counterpart group, heavily influenced by the
Rockefeller dynasty, whose Standard Oil holdings competed with Bernhard's Royal
Dutch Petroleum. Hence, the interests of the oil industry were well-represented
at Bilderberg meetings.
At early meetings of the Bilderberg, attendees expressed
frustration with American politics, then in the throes of McCarthyism, whose
nationalist ideology stood in the way of global planning. C. D. Jackson tried to
quell their fears by saying, "Whether McCarthy dies by an assassin's bullet or
is eliminated in the normal American way of getting rid of boils on body
politics, I prophesy that by the time we hold our next meeting he will be gone
from the American scene."
Bilderberg meetings are held in remote places, and attendees are
encouraged to leave spouses and aides at home, to not use prepared texts, and to
conduct discussions in English as much as possible.
Director and advisory board members include Gianni Agnelli of
Fiat, Dwayne Andreas (controlling shareholder of Archer-Daniels Midland),
Zbigniew Brzezinski (former national security advisor in the Carter
administration), Lord Carrington (former British foreign and defense secretary
and secretary-general of NATO), Andrew Knight (editor of the Economist), Richard
Perle (former U.S. assistant secretary of National Defense and one of the
champions of the Strategic Defense Initiative and Euro-missile deployment), Paul
Volker (former Federal Reserve chairman), and George Will (U.S. conservative
columnist and commentator), to name just a few.
"Providentially, the world became more accessible for me as Canada
became less commodious," Conrad Black said in his biography, "A Life in
Progress". "It was from Bilderberg that our company's eventual vocation as an
international newspaper organization arose."
Critics of the Bilderberg say that the secret group:
•perceives itself as being supra-governmental;
•manipulates global finances and establishes rigid and binding
monetary rates around the world;
•selects political figures whom the Bilderberg decrees should
become rulers, and targets those whom it wants removed from power;
•decides which countries shall wage war on others.
