The Bilderberg group will gather in St. Moritz, Switzerland this year, June 9-12. Bilderberg has met in Switzerland four times in various cities. Usually they meet in the US whenever their brother the Trilateral Commision meets there, but this year, although the TC is meeting in D.C. April 8-10, the Bilderbergs are meeting in Switzerland. Could it be that they consider themselves to be too well known in the US for their own good?
The Bilderberg Club is often referred to as the most secretive and exclusive cult in the world. To gain entry, one must own a multinational bank, and multinational corporation or a nation-state. Since its inception in '53 it has been attended by many of the world's top powerbrokers .
According to Alex Jones, the Libyan invasion is due to the Bilderberg agenda of stirring enough unrest in the Middle East so that America can justify going to war with Iran, just as the Stuxnet virus was developed with the same object in mind.
(London's Daily Telegraph reported that the Stuxnet virus was developed by Israel and an unnamed Western power to infiltrate Iran's nuclear computer controlling system and cause it to severely disfunction. In response, it is rumored Iran has executed some of its nuclear computer scientists.)
Across Europe major newspapers will cover the annual Bilderberg event but The Washington Post, The New York Times, and the Los Angeles Times and their widespread off-shoots will not report on the meetings because they are owned by Bilderberg members. Daniel Estulin, in his book The True Story of the Bilderberg Group, records an interview with a disaffected Bilderberg member who discusses the group's globalist agenda of A New World Order or the creation of one world government to enslave the human race. This may sound far fetched, but if you think about it - what other objective would a secret cult of the world's richest powerbrokers pursue? LOL – but seriously.
