Thread: BILDERBERGERS: Get Attention of AOL News

Nothing like a disastrous financial collapse and general sense of malaise to start bringing things forward into MSM, even if the sneering "conspiracist" label is applied.

Conspiracists Push 'Bilderberger' Theory
AOL posted: 3 MINUTES AGO
comments: 53filed under: Political News, The Obama Presidency

(March 15) - Another conspiracy theory surrounding President Barack Obama is making the rounds, according to Politico.com.

The latest one contends that many top officials in Obama's administration are involved in a clandestine global cabal bent on creating a one-world government that supersedes the United States.

For decades, conspiracy theorists have viewed the Bilderberg group, an international organization made up of political, financial, academic and military heavyweights that comes together annually to discuss world affairs, as similar to the Trilateral Commission or the Council on Foreign Relations -- two groups comprised of influential movers and shakers who, some say, control world events from behind the scenes.

And now, some in the Obama administration who have taken part in Bilderberg conferences in the past are gaining attention for their alleged involvement in a secret bid for worldwide domination.

Kansas. Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, a Bilderberg participant who was recently nominated by Obama for the Health and Human Services secretary post, is the latest high-profile figure to be singled out.
One conspiracy-minded Web site called PrisonPlanet.com said that if confirmed, Sebelius "will be pleased to do the bidding of the Bilderbergers in the Obama administration."

The fact that other top members of the Obama team -- economists Timothy Geithner, Larry Summers and Paul Volcker -- has only added fuel to the fire.

This latest theory comes just weeks after AOL ran a story about the Birthers, a group of conservatives who believe Barack Obama is ineligible to be president because of alleged questions surrounding his birth status.

The link to the AOL story carries photos of the various Team Obama people who belong to the group, so click it to read more.

WONDER WHAT MIGHT BE THE IRRITANT? WHY IS AOL TRYING TO CALM THE SHEEPLE AND HERD THEM AWAY FROM DANGEROUS CONSPIRACY BELIEVERS??

Probably this video, linked below, which is making the rounds. The edited clips from some Hip-Hop artists are priceless for their simply-stated insights. (Advance warning: video is long, but first Rapper shows up at 3 minutes, saying that Barack is like the manager at a Burger King, and the real power is held by the franchise owner. A gem of an insight!)

The clips of people saying things on-camera are priceless, like Gibbs being angrily questioned by the Obama campaign press pool reporters who found themselves rounded up, trapped on a plane bound for Chicago, with no Obama onboard. He and Hillary were off, instead, to the secret private meetings out in Chantilly, VA with the Bilderbergers. The reporters were unable to track where they had disappeared to for 2 days, and needing to scoot back from Chicago didn't help their cause.

People of a cautious bent might want to download the video to hard drive; just sayin' ...

A Kenyan Rules Our country ....sadly.

I think that it's GOOD that AOL is running with that piece. Here's why: They're doing an online polling and people are being asked the following two questions:

#1 Had you heard of the Bilderbergers before?
#2 Does it sound suspicious to you?

There were 70% who answered no to the first question (hadn't heard of it before) and then there were 70% who answered yes to the second question (thought it sounded suspicious).

That group of newly informed poll-takers might start to do a Google, and they're going to find a lot of stuff out there. I've been aware of Bilderbergers from a long time ago, but it's interesting to see so many Americans might never have heard of them.

The other interesting thing is this: AOL tries to influence the poll-takers' thinking by calling it conspiracist (a "bad label") but the people being polled aren't being manipulated into going along with it.

Didn't know about 70% Did: 30%
Suspicious?
Yes: 70% No: 30%

Assuming that the 30% who had heard of it all regard it as suspicious, that leaves the added 40% learning about it for the first time feeling the same way. That it's "suspicious" of this previously unknown group to have so many people in power belonging to it, before they rise to even higher power.

Exactly how I feel about it AB.

Same goes with those who chortle and s****** over the efforts to expose obama for the usurper he is, make their snide little remarks and hope to embarass those with a genuine interest in the topic, and all of it's inherent subject matter (the constitution, legal arguments and precedent, etc.) into just dropping the subject.....all while contending of course that they don't support obama and did not vote for him........

THOSE are the people in for a rude awakening AB.

The list from 2002:
http://www.bilderberg.org/bilder.htm#info2002

Some information from the link with the 2002 list.

Is Bilderberg a secret conspiracy?
When such rich and powerful people meet up in secret, with military intelligence managing their security, with hardly a whisper escaping of what goes on inside, people are right to be suspicious. But the true power of Bilderberg comes from the fact that participants are in a bubble, sealed off from reality and the devastating implications on the ground of the black-science economic solutions on the table.

No, it's not a 'conspiracy'. The world's leading financiers and foreign policy strategists don't get together at Bilderberg to draw up their 'secret plans for the future'. It's subtler than that. These meetings create an artificial 'consensus' in an attempt to spellbind visiting politicians and and other men of influence. Blair has fallen for this hook, line and sinker. It's about reinforcing - often to the very people who are on the edge of condemning Globalisation - the illusion that Globalisation is 'good', 'popular' and that it's inevitable.

Bilderberg is an extremely influential lobbying group. That's not to say though that the organisers don't have a hidden agenda, they do, namely accumulation of wealth and power into their own hands whilst explaining to the participants that globalisation is for the good of all. It is also a very good forum for 'interviewing' potential future political figures such as Clinton (1991) and Blair (1993). [see above for more on this]

The ideology put forward at the Bilderberg conferences is that what's good for banking and big business is good for the mere mortals of the world. Silently banished are the critical voices, those that might point out that debt is spiralling out of control, that wealth is being sucked away from ordinary people and into the hands of the faceless corporate institutions, that millions are dying as a direct result of the global heavyweight Rockefeller/Rothschild economic strategies.

When looking at one of the (partially reliable) participant lists it should be remembered that quite a number of participants are invited in an attempt to get them on-board the globalisation project. These are carefully selected people of influence, who have been openly critical of globalisation. Examples are Jonathan Porritt (Bilderberg 1999) and Will Hutton (Bilderberg 1997) but there are many others. Most of these kinds of participants are happy to speak about the conference afterwards, and may even be refreshingly critical.

The Bilderberg organisers are accepted by those 'in the know' as the prophets of Capitalism. Will Hutton, deputy Editor of The Observer newspaper in London and left-leaning Economist, described private clubs of the elite as masterminded by 'The High Priests of Globalisation'. The ecclesiastical allusion is not accidental. The Bilderberg high-priests are a force against good, out to wipe morality from the earth. For the organisers Bilderberg Conferences are an annual ideological assault by the world's most power-hungry people. Not content with owning unimaginable amounts of money and property they want to use that wealth to acquire even more power for themselves. Power is the most dangerous and addictive drugs known to man. Will the craving be satisfied when a handful of men own and control everything on earth?

And just like the Nazi party in the 1930's the global Capitalist Elite are rising in power by peaceful means. There are some very uncomfortable and unexplained connections between Bilderberg and the Nazis through the Conference's founder Prince Bernhard.

These crown princes of capital use violence at the sharp end - the destruction of dissent - the repossession of homes men and women have worked a lifetime for - needless deaths from starvation and geopolitical machinations - this violence is notable by its absence from the annual meetings.

One can't help but wonder, when the Bilderberg organisers, Rothschild, Rockefeller, Kissinger and the rest have completed their project of enclosing all global goods and services into their own hands, enclosing too the media to stop people freely discussing what they are up to. What then?? What happens when the men who would be gods turn out to be the global devils?
