Was ex-SS Bilderberg chairman Prince Bernhard a Nazi spy in Whitehall? Interview with Dutch journalist Philip Droge author of 'Master of Spies'. Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands' Nazi SS past and marriage to Princess Juliana of the Netherlands -- comes to London when Holland is invaded by the Nazis in 1940 and shadowed by Ian Fleming of MI6 'M' section, Desmond Morton, Mountbatten, OpJB and James Bond fame.
Prince Bernhard sends double agent Christiaan Lindemans, known as agent 'King Kong', into Holland in early September 1944 just before crucial Operation Market Garden (see feature film & book 'A Bridge Too Far') but instead of going to prepare the Dutch resistance he reports straight to the German Abwehr (military intelligence). After the war Lindemans was arrested and interrogated by the British military intelligence and set to stand trial. But taken by the Dutch government to Germany where he died in mysterious circumstances days before the trial was due to commence. Bernhard reappears in 1954 in the Oosterbeek 'witches cauldron', where thousands of British paratroopers were massacred, as Chairman of the Bilderberg meetings for two decades. Then the Lockheed scandal of 1975 where he is disgraced, almost causing the death of the Dutch monarchy. Possibility that 2014 Bilderberg conference might not take place in Copenhagen, Denmark as many believe but in the Netherlands instead.

Democracy had another near-fatal stroke, and the military industrial complex further tightened UK defense spending with the appointment of ex-army officer and Tory hothead Rory Stewart MP as the new chairman of Westminster’s Defence Select Committee.
Last week the Home Affairs Select Committee delivered a damning verdict on Britain's defense and secret service oversight, on taxpayer accountability. It said the refusal of the director general of MI5, Andrew Parker, to appear before them and lack of any effective supervision was "undermining the credibility of the intelligence agencies and parliament itself."
Surely nothing could surpass the ‘Dodgy Dossier', the criminal conspiracy that led to the US and Britain, as the Arab League put it in 2003, to 'Opening the Gates of Hell in Iraq'? But with Stuart's appointment to oversee public scrutiny of UK military spending just two weeks before NATO's political cabal of which he's a member, the Bilderberg conference, meets in Copenhagen later this month, it is clear to those who still have eyes to see that those bloody lessons have not been learned and the worse could be yet to come.
The most powerful private club in the world
In their Christmas 1987 edition, The Economist described Bilderberg as ‘Ne Plus Ultra’ the most powerful private club in the world. Its power has certainly not diminished as the decades have rolled by and neither has its secrecy. Although it began with trades unionists and powerful people it wanted to persuade, in its final days Bilderberg has boiled down to a rotten core of bankers, royalty, arms industry, oil and media barons and Rory Stuart MP, in the tradition of Kissinger, Blair, Cameron, Osborne and Balls, has thrown his lot in with them.
In 1943, half way through the war, the US power elite saw that, barring any big surprises, Hitler was going to lose World War Two, so their ‘War And Peace Studies Group’ of the Council On Foreign Relations (CFR) quietly began to prepare the Marshall Plan for the post-war world. Alongside the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), a sizable budget was set aside to fund a range of activities which would ensure Europeans didn't vote communist and were welded economically, culturally and politically to the US for the foreseeable future.
Born in a Nazi ‘witches cauldron’ of British blood
Bilderberg's first chairman, Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, was born into the German aristocracy. He joined the Nazi party at university, then the SS but he married into the Dutch royal family, dropping the silver deaths-head and black SS uniform before the war. His newly adopted Holland was invaded by his old Nazi friends in 1941, so he fled to Britain with Dutch Queen Wilhelmina and his wife, Princess Juliana.
As a former SS officer he was scrutinized by the Admiralty's wartime spymaster, Ian Fleming who, after a year of watching Bernhard, signed him to the British army as a trusted Dutch liaison officer.
With 1944 came one of Bernhard’s most important jobs: to supervise the Dutch underground in the run-up to September's liberation of large parts of Holland. Field Marshall Montgomery’s audacious airborne operation, the biggest in history, depicted in Cornelius Ryan’s 1977 film A Bridge Too Far, was codenamed 'Market Garden' and intended to end the war by Christmas.
As liaison officer for the coming Arnhem deliverance, Bernhard sent in Dutch spy, Christiaan Lindemans, codename 'King Kong', ten days beforehand to prepare resistance fighters for the allies lunge through Eindhoven, Nijmegen and over the Rhein into Arnhem.
But instead of making contact with the Dutch underground, Bernhard’s 'King Kong' found some German soldiers and demanded to be taken straight to the Abwehr, German military intelligence. The allies’ plans for the airborne assault were in enemy hands because Bernhard’s precious Lindemans was a double agent. He had wrecked the allies’ all-important element of surprise.
‘King Kong’ was arrested and quizzed after the war by the British but never got a chance to tell his story because, under Dutch orders, he was whisked off to Germany and died in suspicious circumstances.
Operation Market Garden went ahead on Sunday September 17, 1944, but the British paratroopers at Arnhem were quickly split and surrounded by forces containing self-propelled guns, tanks and crack SS troops, who happened to be resting nearby. Frost's 2nd battalion held on to the bridge leaving the rest of the 1st Airborne Division surrounded in what the Nazis called the Hexenkessel or 'witches cauldron', pinned down in the suburb of Oosterbeek.
On Wednesday 20 September, 1944, as British airborne Colonel John Frost’s remaining paratroopers were being mauled by SS Panzers at Arnhem Bridge, the tanks of the Grenadier Guards, along with US paratroopers, were tantalizingly close, destroying the last German defenses down the road in Nijmegen. Ironically, it was a young captain, who was also to chair the Bilderberg meetings in later life, Lord Peter Carrington, who was leading the Grenadier battle group of Sherman tanks as they took the penultimate bridge. At 8 o'clock that evening, he was just a 20-minute drive from reinforcing Frost at the Arnhem Bridge, and victory.
But although they still had eight hours or so before Arnhem Bridge would finally fall into German hands, Carrington’s force, along with the Irish guards, of a hundred or so tanks inexplicably stopped, just over the Nijmegen Bridge in the village of Lent, for an eighteen hour rest. After the war, 10 SS Panzer Division General Heinz Harmel mocked Carrington saying, “The British tanks made a mistake when they stayed in Lent. If they had carried on it would have been all over for us.”
'Colonel Frost later put the blame,' as Stuart Hills reports in 'By Tank To Normandy', 'firmly on the lack of drive by Guards Armoured,' of which Carrington's Grenadiers were the spearhead. 'Comparing their relatively light casualties with those suffered by the British 1st Airborne and US 82nd. Forty years later,' in 1984, 'he stood on the bridge at a reunion, shook his fist and roared a question into the air for the guards. 'Do you call that fighting!'
So Bilderberg’s first 1954 venue in Oosterbeek, Holland, was highly significant, being the same spot where a decade before the British army had suffered nearly 10,000 casualties in of one of the last Nazi bloodbaths of World War II. Bernhard had given the game away and when it looked like, despite his treachery, the brave allied soldiers might pull it off, Carrington and his corps of tanks ground to a halt for an eighteen hour tea break.
Psychos always return to the scene of the crime
Like the psychopath, who feels compelled to return to the scene of the crime, Prince Bernhard returned to Oosterbeek to chair the inaugural Bilderberg meeting in 1954. The conferences led to the signing of the Treaty of Rome, which started the European Economic Community (EEC) three years later.
Surrounded by the great and good of the post war world, the prince hoped nobody would examine his reasons for choosing Oosterbeek. At the best it was an in-joke – at the worst the battle was thrown. Whatever way you look at it sixty years on, the coded message from that first Bilderberg meeting should be clear to us now. Ten years after the war, the Nazis were back.
The seventy year Bilderberg project is almost complete
So seventy years since the Arnhem slaughter and sixty years since the first Bilderberg conference, the EEC has become the EU. NATO's new feudal oligarchy of Western banksters and multinationals own and control all the big political parties as well as almost everything that moves both sides of the Atlantic.
Some saw it coming: former SS general Paul Hausser, who became chief of HIAG, the German SS veterans group after the war, claimed that "the foreign units of the SS were really the precursors of the NATO army." Others detailed the Nazis' transformation from military to financial empire including former CBS News correspondent Paul Manning in his 1981 book 'Martin Bormann Nazi in Exile'.
Bilderberg’s latest wheeze is the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP). This treaty makes voting pointless by letting multinationals sue governments and will leave only the thinnest veneer of democracy for the mainstream media to chew on both in Europe and America. The ‘nation states’ will become mere prefectures and the European Commission will be the unelected government of the United States of Europe.
As ordinary people across Europe and America cry out for decent basic standards such as fresh water, food, shelter, healthcare, heating and full employment, the mainstream media barely hear them because this is not the Bilderberg way. Instead, these pinstriped fascists bury us in debt, steal our leisure time, erode quality time with children, friends and family, and then blame us for demanding a fair share of the rewards of human progress.

Next week, at the Marriott Hotel in Copenhagen, the annual trade and policy summit held by the Bilderberg Group will throw open its doors for three days of top level talks, from May 29th to June 1st. I say “throw open its doors”... the doors will remain, as ever, firmly closed to the public and press. Unless you happen to own a newspaper, or run a publishing conglomerate, or be the Executive Chairman of Google, chances are you're not going.
It's remarkable how many bank bosses and corporate CEOs manage to clear their diary, every year, for a full three days of conferencing at Bilderberg. Last year, BP sent its Group Chief Executive, the Michelin Group sent its CEO, while HSBC was represented by both the Group Chairman and the Vice Chairman. From Goldman Sachs came two board members, including their Vice Chairman. And Royal Dutch Shell left a skeleton crew back at headquarters: the company sent its Chairman, CEO, and CFO – and in case that wasn't enough, they also sent along a director, Josef Ackermann. Who's also on the board of Investor AB, the £20 billion asset management company. Which also sent its CEO and Chairman. You get the picture.
All this corporate brass spending three days conferencing with media moguls and billionaire investors wouldn't matter so much, but for the fact that quite a few of the participants who get locked away with them are politicians. And senior politicians at that.
In 2013, the Bilderberg conference was attended by seven Finance Ministers, three Foreign Ministers, two deputy Prime Ministers, and two serving Prime Ministers: Mark Rutte, the PM of Holland, and our very own David Cameron. With them: the President of the European Commission, José Manuel Barroso; EU Commissioner, Viviane Reding; the head of the IMF, Christine Lagarde; and various other politicians and policymakers.
Now, if you're in charge of HSBC, or Telecom Italia – or if you're Henry Kravis, running the famously aggressive $40 billion private equity firm KKR – then you might well regard such a luxurious length of private access to this many senior policymakers as something of a boon. Three days worth clearing your diary for.
People often wonder what Bilderberg “is”. And the simplest answer is: a gigantic lobbying opportunity. A fair few of the corporate commandants who attend the conference also hold, besides their various executive roles and directorships, senior positions in large and influential trade associations and lobby groups – groups with snappy names like the European Round Table of Industrialists, the Foreign Investment Advisory Council, and the European Financial Services Round Table.
One example: the current chairman of Bilderberg’s Steering Committee, which is the group’s governing body – Henri de Castries. Besides being the Chairman and CEO of the investment and insurance giant AXA, and the head of Bilderberg, he’s also a member of the aforementioned European Financial Services Round Table. And in his spare time he’s on the board of Nestlé. This is typical: pretty much everyone at Bilderberg wears a dozen different hats. The queue at the cloakroom after dinner is a nightmare.
One of the best represented lobbying organisations at Bilderberg is BritishAmerican Business (BAB), a transatlantic, big business advocacy group, which boasts of being able to exert “regulatory influence” through “high-level representation to Government on policy issues”.
At last year's Bilderberg conference, there were six members of BAB's International Advisory Board:
Ian Davis, Chairman, Rolls-Royce
Robert Dudley, CEO, BP (at time of meeting)
Douglas J Flint, Group Chairman, HSBC
John Micklethwait, Editor-in-Chief, the Economist
Peter Sutherland KPMG, Chairman, Goldman Sachs International
Peter Voser, CEO, Shell (at time of meeting)
No wonder BAB's Chairman is able to say:
“Access – to the right connections, audiences, influence and intelligence – is key to business success. And high-quality access is at the heart of the business advantage we offer on both sides of the Atlantic.”
For lobby groups like BritishAmerican Business, Bilderberg is Wimbledon, the Champions League and Christmas rolled into one. It's the Holy Grail of “access”. Never mind having to loiter around a lobby trying to flag down a passing politician, this is one lobby the politicians travel to themselves. Generally on a flight paid for by the taxpayer.
Of course, none of the lobby groups or trade associations whose members are at Bilderberg are officially “there”. But membership of a lobby group is not something you take off like a raincoat at the door of the hotel. Douglas Flint doesn’t magically stop being a member of BritishAmerican Business’s International Advisory Board when he sits down for breakfast opposite George Osborne, any more than he stops being the Group Chairman of HSBC when he’s playing late night billiards with Christine Lagarde.
To see how Bilderberg creates such a perfect storm of lobbying, it pays to look closer at how an individual policy might be promoted there. One of the key policies currently being pushed by BritishAmerican Business, for example, is the giant TTIP free trade deal between the EU and the US – a policy that chimes with Bilderberg’s peculiarly transatlantic vision. BAB has been playing:
“a leadership role, with government and the business community, in promoting the prospective EU-US Transatlantic Trade & Investment Partnership (TTIP).”
Of course, BAB is just one of the business lobby groups currently banging the drum for TTIP. For example, the European Round Table of Industrialists (which is well represented at Bilderberg) is part of the “Business Alliance for TTIP”, the sole aim of which is to “advocate for the successful conclusion of TTIP”.
Bilderberg grants these pro-TTIP advocates untrammelled access to the very people they’re advocating to: the politicians and trade negotiators. Present at the 2013 Bilderberg meeting was Kenneth Clarke, one of the government's key TTIP negotiators. Not to mention the seven Finance Ministers, and other assorted economic policymakers (see Lord Mandelson to your right).
Alongside them was José Manuel Barroso, President of the European Commission – which is negotiating TTIP with the US on behalf of the EU and its Member States. And David Cameron, who turned up to take part in what Downing Street described as “a discussion around domestic and global economic issues.”
Cameron, of course, is the UK's representative at the European Council, which will, when the time comes, examine the negotiated trade deal and either pass it or reject it.
So, you've got TTIP negotiators, TTIP lobbyists and TTIP arbiters, locked away together for three days, with no press oversight. It’s a heady mix. And considering that TTIP was top of the conference agenda (under the heading “Can the US and Europe grow faster and create jobs?”) it's hard not to see the conference itself as just another phase of the notoriously untransparent TTIP negotiations.
In all of this, it's pointless looking to the lobbyists for greater transparency: it's entirely in their interests to keep the process out of the public eye. It would be like asking a fox to come up with ways to improve chicken shed security.
Likewise, there's no particular reason why the various CEOs and investment fund billionaires at Bilderberg are going to want the press snooping around these discussions. They prefer to glad-hand EU Commissioners and schmooze Prime Ministers behind closed doors.
As for the Bilderberg Group itself, it’s a private organisation, with a 60-year history of holding intensely private meetings: transparency doesn't tend to make it onto their agenda. With so many politicians present, it would be nice to see some proper minutes of these meetings published, but that’s not going to happen unless the press and public push for it.
For now, if we want transparency at Bilderberg, it's going to have to be provided by the politicians. Luckily, many of them who go to Bilderberg are avowed champions of transparency. Like David Cameron (Bilderberg 2008, 2013) who launched a war on out-of-control lobbying in a speech back in 2010, when he attacked the “far-too-cosy relationship between politics, government, business and money”.
In that speech, Cameron described lobbying as “the next big scandal waiting to happen.” At Bilderberg, that scandal happens every year. This year, it’s happening in Copenhagen, at the Marriott Hotel, from May 29th to June 1st.

Founded in 1954, Bilderberg is an annual conference designed to foster dialogue between Europe and North America. Every year, between 120-150 political leaders and experts from industry, finance, academia and the media are invited to take part in the conference. About two thirds of the participants come from Europe and the rest from North America; approximately one third from politics and government and the rest from other fields.
The conference is a forum for informal discussions about major issues facing the world. The meetings are held under the Chatham House Rule, which states that participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s) nor of any other participant may be revealed.
Thanks to the private nature of the conference, the participants are not bound by the conventions of their office or by pre-agreed positions. As such, they can take time to listen, reflect and gather insights.
There is no desired outcome, no resolutions are proposed, no votes are taken, and no policy statements are issued.
Conspiracy theorists may chuckle when they learn a debate entitled “Does Privacy Exist?” is to feature at this year’s Bilderberg conference, the notoriously secretive gathering of the world’s most powerful bankers, politicians and business people.
There may be a further shaking of heads when they discover one of the participants at the heavily fortified, five-star Marriott Hotel in Copenhagen, Denmark, will be Keith Alexander, the former director of the National Security Agency (NSA), which was embarrassed by the mass-surveillance revelations leaked by Edward Snowden. In fairness to the Bilderberg, the organisers of this year’s conference – which starts on Thursday – have made efforts to be more transparent by publishing a list of all the prime ministers, chief executives and military chiefs in attendance, as well as the topics up for discussion.
Chancellor George Osborne and his Labour counterpart, Ed Balls, are among the hand-picked group of British politicians who will visit Copenhagen to hob-nob with the global elite behind closed doors.
Other guests from the political sphere include the former “Third Man” of New Labour, Lord Mandelson, the current International Development Secretary, Justine Greening, and the veteran American foreign policy expert, Henry Kissinger.
Billionaire captains of industry who landed invitations include the heads of Shell, BP, Airbus, HSBC, Saab, AXA, Google, and Linkedin. They will sit alongside key global powerbrokers such as Christine Lagarde, the head of the International Monetary Fund, and senior officials from the European Central Bank.
The chairmen from Goldman Sachs and Lazards will perhaps reflect on how their investment banks “advised” Whitehall over the controversial flotation of Royal Mail, which left the UK taxpayer £1bn out of pocket.
Keeping a discreet eye over the exchanges will be the intelligence chiefs such as Mr Alexander from the United States and Sir John Sawers, the head of MI6, who was pictured on Facebook in his swimming trunks in 2009.
Items on the agenda include “The future of democracy and the middle-class trap”, “The new architecture of the Middle East” and the major geopolitical crisis of the moment: “Ukraine”. The secretive nature of the Bilderberg Conference has triggered suspicions that the event is used to shape global policy at the expense of democratic oversight. The idea of the euro was said to have been spawned at one meeting in the Nineties.
Paul Flynn, Labour MP for Newport West, asked a series of parliamentary questions about Bilderberg last year when the conference was held at a five-star hotel near Watford. He told The Independent: “I don’t regard the Bilderberg as a great threat but we would all like to know what is going on with these things. Secrecy inspires concern.”
Despite its new efforts at transparency, the conference is still acutely sensitive about radical infiltration. On Tuesday night, three journalists – self-styled “InfoWarriors” – were arrested by Danish police after they tried to ambush the organisers outside the Marriott.
The Good News from Bilderberg is that they have invited back the Chinese college professors who attended Bilderberg 2012 but were snubbed in 2013. They also invited another Chinese professor who has worked on his government's Five Year plan. Hopefully, this rapprochement means we can avoid a military confrontation in Asia. One Bilderberg agenda item is to discuss the recent Russo-Chinese economic alignment and what this means for the Western governments they control.They discuss agenda items until a consensus is reached. Then the participants are expected to carry that consensus back to their home countries.
This is my third annual Annotated Bilderberg Members List. The biographies of the participants tells us a lot about what they are thinking and what their interests are. The published biographies leave off any mention of relations to the Rothschilds.
The Bad News is that their assembled Bilderberg crew is incapable of any real solutions. The Russians announced the sale of the S-400 anti-aircraft system to China which China will sell to Iran.

Deutsche Bank will cease participating in the London silver fix. It will end August 14 because no bank wants a part of a multi-billion dollar lawsuit.

Donilon has no military experience but was intimately involved in many major foreign policy issues, including negotiating the Bosnian peace agreement and the expansion of NATO. His predecessor at NSA General Jones criticized his poor handling of staff and lack of experience. He made up for his lack of overseas experience by joining Obama on his surprise 6 hour trip to Afghanistan. Donilon was a key architect of Obama’s Afghanistan policy and we can see how well it worked. His 5 fold escalation of the use of drones has NOT improved America’s image there and in Pakistan. His wife and his brother work for VP Joe Biden.
DEU Döpfner, Mathias CEO, Axel Springer SE, the German media group. GBR Dudley, Robert Group Chief Executive, BP plc. The Bilderbergers are strong in oil and not just banking and war. They have ties to Shell, EXXON, and BP. I would not advise Dudley to drive around Louisiana in his limousine.

PRT Macedo, Paulo Minister of Health. He is a former banker and held several directorships. This is his first Bilderberg meeting.
FRA Macron, Emmanuel Deputy Secretary General of the Presidency. Did not mention in his bio that prior to working for the President of France he was at Rothschild Investment Bank. He made millions from a Nestle acquisition.

He has a reputation as political fixer. He is gay. His father was advertising manager at the Jewish Chronicle. His mother was well connected in the Labor party in London.

He can help the Bilderberg members make more money and adapt to changing technology.

USA Murray, Charles A. W.H. Brady Scholar, American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research. He is famous for his works on the Bell Curve and the debate over his views on the Underclass. This is his first Bilderberg meeting. They probably want to know what will happen when they greatly increase the number of poor people. Their policy of Deindustrialization creates poverty but allows the Bilderbergers - or so they think- to have more control over the poor.
NLD Netherlands, H.R.H. Princess Beatrix the recently retired Queen of the Netherlands. Her father founded Bilderberg. Her family owns a large part of Royal Dutch Shell along with the Queen of England and the Rothschilds. Forbes magazine did a puff piece and said she had only 300 million dollars. This is not credible for a family that ruled for 200 years. She was replaced by her son Wilhelm-Alexander.
ESP Nin Génova, Juan María Deputy Chairman and CEO, CaixaBank. This is an old bank that merged with others. It has lots of pensions and savings from Spanish workers. Spain is experiencing bank runs. Americans do not realize that there is not just one euro but one different euro for every country in the Eurozone. Each euro note is marked by the country of issue. If Greece and Germany drop out, Greek euros will be exchanged for drachmas and German euros for Deutschmarks. The danger to anyone not holding German euros is clear. Bank depositors in Europe and America have been exposed to hundreds of trillions of dollars in risk for the value of euro bonds and interest rates through Credit Default Swaps.

TUR Oran, Umut Deputy Chairman, Republican People’s Party (CHP). His first meeting. He is deputy leader of the opposition. Bilderberg likes to control all political parties.
GBR Osborne, George Chancellor of the Exchequer. This man is a dope. He and Cameron came up with this idiotic Help to Buy scheme purloined from Alan Greenspan hoping it gets them past election day 2015. Things are not going well for either the UK or the EU. Lucky if things don't go to hell before the elections.
FRA Pellerin, Fleur State Secretary for Foreign Trade. She has worked with the Digital Economy for the French government. She is opposed to spying electronically on individuals. That makes her attendance at Bilderberg somewhat puzzling. She was born in Korea and was adopted by a French family.
USA Perle, Richard N. Resident Fellow, American Enterprise Institute. He began as a senior staff member to Senator Henry “Scoop” Jackson and served as the assistant Secretary of Defense for Ronald Regan. He was a member Project for the New American Century (PNAC) .

DEU Röttgen, Norbert Chairman, Foreign Affairs Committee, German Bundestag. Professional CDU politician. His first meeting.
USA Rubin, Robert E. Co-Chair, Council on Foreign Relations; Former Secretary of the Treasury. He was head of Citibank’s private bank which launders drug money. In 1999 Robert Rubin, Alan Greenspan, Larry Summers (Samuelson) and Arthur Levitt told Brooksley Born of the CFTC that she could not regulate Credit Default Swaps which were faux insurance. They were unregulated and did not require the seller to set aside money to pay claims. All sales income could be paid out in bonuses allowing the taxpayer to foot the bill when it came due as it did in AIG. American taxpayers according to Obama will have to pay hundreds of trillions of dollars in CDS after the euro bonds collapse. All four of those men are Jewish. No concern to them that a billion people at some future date will starve to death.
USA Rumer, Eugene Senior Associate and Director, Russia and Eurasia Program, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. He has written an article describing Putin as reckless but he conceded that splitting the Ukraine is better than a messy civil war. I suppose he passes for an expert on Russia at Bilderberg.
NOR Rynning-Tønnesen, Christian President and CEO, Statkraft AS. This is an alternative energy company that uses mostly hydro and wind generation.
NLD Samsom, Diederik M. Parliamentary Leader PvdA (Labour Party). Professional politician. He is party spokesman on Environmental issues. This would play well with Bilderberg Deindustrialization plans.
GBR Sawers, John Chief, Secret Intelligence Service (MI6). He is a professional diplomat and not either a spy or a warrior. His salary is in the range of £160,000 plus a year.
NLD Scheffer, Paul J. Author; Professor of European Studies, Tilburg University. He is a prominent member of the Dutch Labour Party. The central idea of his book is that “immigration always has been and is a process of alienation for both the newcomers and the natives”. Maybe the bankers want to figure out an election strategy that will keep the anti-austerity and anti-immigration parties from winning any more elections.
NLD Schippers, Edith Minister of Health, Welfare and Sport. Her mentor was Geert Wilders which seems strange for her attending Bilderberg at first glance.
USA Schmidt, Eric E. Executive Chairman, Google Inc. He has worked at Sun and Apple. Google is a superior search engine and was designed that way by the CIA-DARPA hive. It was given to the founders as was a lot of new technology. It is given on the condition that the CIA and NSA are allowed to spy on us.
AUT Scholten, Rudolf CEO, Oesterreichische Kontrollbank AG. He is head of the Austrian Central Bank. The Great Depression did not get going until the Credit Anstalt bank of Vienna collapsed on May 11, 1931. It had too many eastern European bad debts. This man is not a professional banker. They probably are worried about bank run contagion and rightly so.
USA Shih, Clara CEO and Founder, Hearsay Social. She is on the board at Starbucks. Her company allows companies to use Twitter and other tools to market their products and services.
FIN Siilasmaa, Risto K. Chairman of the Board of Directors and Interim CEO, Nokia Corporation. This is a troubled company. ESP Spain, H.M. Sofia the Queen of. Her husband is Juan Carlos de Borbon.

Her husband is said to be a rather powerful Freemason according to Barry Chamish the author of Who Murdered Yitzhak Rabin.
USA Spence, A. Michael Professor of Economics, New York University. He is an economist who urges accommodation between China and America for a Sino-American decade. Not likely. China has all the cards. They are moving cautiously with the BRICS nations and 80 other allied nations to take down the dollar as the international reserve currency. When this happens, foreigners will dump dollars and at least double prices in America. That will cut the American standard of living in half.
FIN Stadigh, Kari President and CEO, Sampo plc. This is a Life Insurance company. Bilderberg likes to build a consensus at their meetings. They invite many one meeting only m,embers to promote that consensus back home in their business and academic circles.
USA Summers (Samuelson), Lawrence H. Charles W. Eliot University Professor, Harvard University. This sum bag used to be Treasury Secretary. He was behind the repeal of Glass-Steagall which exposed depositors to wild speculations by their banks. He was one of the gang of four that forced Brooksley Born of the CFTC to back down from her plan to regulate CDS. This would have saved taxpayers from a potential loss in the hundreds of trillions of dollars. He is a dope. He made really bad bets with Harvard's funds when he was President there. He fired the woman who tried to stop him from ruining the school. He is a walking disaster. He did not attend in 2012 and 2013. If Bilderberg listens to this man, it will lead to ruin.

He is on the Bilderberg Steering Committee. He is a former Chairman of the Trilateral Commission. As the UN’s (Bilderberg) special representative for migration, he told the EU that they should “do its best to undermine” the “homogeneity” of its member states. As an Irishman who was a good footballer in his 20s, he should be ashamed of himself.

TUR Taftal1, A. Ümit Member of the Board, Suna and Inan Kiraç Foundation. Another Gold man Sachs man.
USA Thiel, Peter A. President, Clarium Capital / Thiel Capital. Thiel is on the Steering Committee and is bringing in the younger crowd of high tech billionaires the CIA and NSA will need to end anonymity on the Internet and then close down free speech. It should be noted that he is not an engineer. He is a lawyer and Stanford graduate. He worked as a derivatives trader and runs a Hedge Fund. He owned 10.2% of Facebook pre IPO. Mundie wants licensing for Internet users. A license that can be revoked at the whim of a billionaire. Thiel is a founder of PayPal which shuts down service to those who practice free speech on the Internet. He was an early investor in Facebook which legally should never had been offered as an IPO at anything above a dollar a share. PayPal has been linked by John Cruz to money laundering.
DNK Topsøe, Henrik Chairman, Haldor Topsøe A/S. Partner, AMBROX Capital A/S. A financial services firm. He has worked ABN Ambro. That firm had to tell gold depositors that there gold on deposit was no longer there. He has 15 years experience managing funds. He is a returning Biderberger.
GRC Tsoukalis, Loukas President, Hellenic Foundation for European and Foreign Policy. He has written on European expansion which he accepts. He just wants them to not forget democracy and social welfare as Europe becomes a single state. He needs to look at the European Commission. They are not democratic. And he can forget social welfare. Please Sir, take a look at the people of Athens. What you see is what you will get more of.He signed a petition asking European leaders for leniency in the case of Greece. Maybe they will offer him a bone that will help the pro euro forces against the pro default forces.The Greeks want to stay on the EU but do not want to pay those debts most of which are odious and subject to default under international law. He attended Bilderberg in 2012.

But he also went into the Harvard MBA program. I might not be alone in thinking that this medical model screams for reform. His wife is the niece of the former CEO of Sandoz. He is a returning Bilderberger.
FIN Wahlroos, Björn Chairman, Sampo plc.. He is chairman of an insurnace company and a bank holding company. He is a Leftist.
SWE Wallenberg, Jacob Chairman, Investor AB. He is a member of the famous Wallenberg family which was Jewish at one time. He is a Director of several banks and of Coca-Cola.
SWE Wallenberg, Marcus Chairman of the Board of Directors, Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB. He is married to a Jewish woman. He had been on the Bilderberg Steering Committee in the past but has not attended in the past few years.
USA Warsh, Kevin M. Distinguished Visiting Fellow and Lecturer, Stanford University. The Hoover Institution, Stanford University. He is a lawyer. He was Vice President and Executive Director in Morgan Stanley’s Mergers and Acquisitions Department. He then worked for President Bush in the Plunge Protection Team. This group tries to make dumb billionaires look smart by buying stocks and sending share prices higher. This disguises bad policies for the government as well. In 2006 he was appointed with another Jew to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. Some said he was too young. Bernanke liked him and he performed well in the 2009 crisis . (Translation: He was as honest as Bernanke and Jamie Dimon liked what he did for them.) He and his wife are Jewish. His wife Jane is an heiress to the Estee Lauder family fortune. He is a returning member.
GBR Wolf, Martin H. Chief Economics Commentator, The Financial Times. He is the favorite writer of billionaires all over the world. He is a committed Globalist. And he is Jewish. As a young man, he worried about the economic conditions of the 1930s that created the war. He should read my essays which give solutions other than more debts and more spending to solve our current crisis.
USA Wolfensohn, James D. Chairman and CEO, Wolfensohn and Company. He is most famous for being the former head of the World Bank. He was a partner of Paul Volcker and made his mark in rescuing Chrysler back in 1980. He was an Australian lawyer working for an English bank when he decided to become an American citizen so he would be eligible to become World Bank President. He is Jewish and his father had worked for the Rothschilds before immigrating suddenly to Australia.
NLD Zalm, Gerrit Chairman of the Managing Board, ABN-AMRO Bank. He was a Dutch politician who became his country's longest serving Finance Minister. His bank was forced to tell gold depositors that they could not redeem their gold. They would be paid off in paper. Apparently, their gold was sold and is probably in China.
GRC Zanias, George Chairman of the Board, National Bank of Greece. Zanias was one of the chief negotiators of the bailout of Greece in 2011-2012 which means he did not stand up to the banks for his people. He is a former college professor with a PhD from Oxford which means he knows nothing about economic problems and their solutions. He worked with the World Bank.
USA Zoellick, Robert B. Chairman, Board of International Advisors, The Goldman Sachs Group. He is a lawyer and worked in the Reagan and Bush I Admins. From 1993 to 1997 He was an Executive VP of scandal plagued Fannie Mae. He signed the PNAC letter demanding America declare war on the whole world except Israel. He was also a managing director of Goldman Sachs. He is of Jewish descent and said so to a German interviewer. He is or was a nominal Lutheran in the small town where he lived as a boy. Karen Hudes said America lost its chairmanship of the World Bank because Zoellick and Wolfensohn allowed too much corruption.

Welcome to the Fourth Reich :
"And for the international order that we have worked for generations to build, ordinary men women are too small minded to govern their own affairs, that order and progress can only come when individuals surrender their rights to an all powerful sovereign"
George Osborne and John Micklethwait. All photos: Hannah Borno
So here he is, our esteemed chancellor of the exchequer, George Osborne, arriving at the 2014 Bilderberg in Copenhagen. In a snappy suit, and with a new razor-sharp hairdo, Osborne looks ready for business. You could skin a goat with that fringe. He probably got a trim and a shoe polish at the airport, wanting to look his best for the conference.
Osborne rolled up to the hotel with John Micklethwait, the editor-in-chief of the Economist and board member of the Economist Group. This year, in all, there are three members of the Economist board at Bilderberg: Micklethwait, John Elkann (the billionaire Agnelli heir) and Eric Schmidt (the executive chairman of Google).
During his stay in Copenhagen, Osborne will also have the chance to hammer out economic policy with three senior members of Goldman Sachs, three board members of Shell Oil, and two people whose nickname is "the Prince of Darkness" – Richard Perle and Peter Mandelson.
Peter Mandelson
Here's Mandy – or should I say, the chairman of Lazard International – arriving now. Mandelson perfectly embodies the ghastly, muddy fudge of public and private that so typifies the atmosphere at Bilderberg. Throw a rock and hit a public servant turned investment banker. Actually, don't throw a rock, because this guy will have your brains on the pavement before you can say "revolving door".
Security guard
Mandelson's boss at Lazard is also here in Copenhagen: Kenneth M Jacobs.
He's the chairman and CEO of the investment bank, and also sits on the board of trustees of the Brookings Institution. This year's Bilderberg seems quite Brookings-heavy. Jacob's has two fellow trustees in Copenhagen: Klaus Kleinfeld (the CEO of Alcoa) and Paul Achleitner (the head of Deutsche Bank) – both of whom also happen to on the board of Bayer, the multinational pharmaceutical company. Cosy.
There are so many interwoven corporate, think-tank and advisory board relationships at Bilderberg it fries your brain to try and unpick them. Take John Elkann for example – the board member of the Economist and part-time knitwear catalogue model.
John Elkann
Elkann is another Brookings connection: he sits on Brookings' International Advisory Council alongside Marcus Wallenberg (one of the two Wallenberg billionaires here this year) and the always dapper Nicolas Berggruen – seen here having a 'moment' with one of the conference staff. Berggruen Holdings has a net equity in excess of $2bn. No wonder he's laughing. Also, to be fair, it always gives him a cheery glow to have someone fired for leaving a bottle of Windolene in the back of his limo.
Nicholas Berggruen
Billionaire Berggruen runs the Institute on Good Governance, a think tank aimed at promoting "globalization 2.0", which sounds like a sequel so terrible that Nicholas Berggruen will probably find himself being played by Adam Sandler.
One of the main projects of The Institute for Good Governance is the '21st Century Council', which features three of this year's Bilderbergers: the ubiquitous Eric Schmidt, Reid Hoffman of LinkedIn, and the publisher Juan Luis Cebrián.
Everyone here's so profoundly interrelated you expect them all to have seven toes, three knees and drink champagne through their ears. It's like one gigantic, pulsing amoeboid corporation, held together by a sticky mesh of board memberships and advisory councils. It gloops hungrily along, oozing cash like a snail trail, digesting every politician and policymaker in its path.
Which makes me feel kind of sorry for Ed Balls. Particularly after he made what has to be the worst entrance to a conference in conference-entering history. Balls arrived at the gate without his security pass, spent ages trying to find it amongst the great armful of files he was huffing along with him, and ended up flapping some ID at a policeman, saying: "That's my name, I'm on the list". Sadly for Balls, his frustration was caught on camera by an Infowars reporter, and the resulting footage makes painful viewing. And by painful I mean hilarious. And by hilarious I mean poignant.
A flustered Balls was escorted around to another entrance, carefully scrutinized, and finally allowed in. Once he'd got through security his assurance returned and a triumphant Ed strode magnificently into the lobby.
Ed Balls
He looks like the cat who got the cream. And then went back for more cream. And then found half a chicken at the back of the fridge and had that as well.
Perhaps Balls will be persuaded by some of his fellow conference goers to join them on their daily jogs. Here's Facebook board member Peter Thiel, setting off for trot along the waterfront.
Peter Thiel
You've never seen anyone take his jogging more seriously than Thiel. The frown doesn't leave his face for a second. In fact, his face has been locked in a granite frown since he arrived at the hotel.
Peter Thiel
Someone should warn him he's going to get crow's feet. Or maybe he thinks that by the time he's due for wrinkles he'll already have melded with AI and be sharing a kind of ageless cyberternity with Eric Schmidt.
Here's Schmidt himself, enjoying a cosy patio chat during the lunch break with his fellow tech-head Alex Karp, CEO of Palantir Technologies, the data analysis and surveillance software company (which was co-funded by Thiel and the CIA).
Eric Schmidt, Alex Karp and Viviane Reding
Karp and Schmidt are deep in conversation with Viviane Reding, the EU commissioner who said recently that the British public were unable to make an "informed decision" about Europe.
Far better that decisions about Europe are taken by wiser heads, like those hobnobbing at Bilderberg. Heads belonging to people like "EU doyen" Viscount Davignon, seen here (on the right) enjoying a smoke with former World Bank boss (now private equity investor) James Wolfensohn.
James Wolfensohn and Viscount Davignon
Wolfensohn looks like he's glad to be out of that heavy morning session on "What next for Europe?" Wolfensohn arrived at this year's conference with another megarich investor, Roger C. Altman, the executive chairman of Evercore, the "premier independent investment banking advisory firm".
Altman followed Thiel's example, and popped out for a jog after he arrived at the hotel, although he found it tricky to snake his way out through the heavy security.
Roger C Altman
All this patio chit-chat and ostentatious jogging about Copenhagen seems like a new venture for Bilderberg: as if they're doing their level best to look normal and relaxed. At lunchtime, the delegates were led out on the patio by the conference organisers, who spent the whole time beadily watching the cameras. If I were a suspicious person by nature, which I am, I'd suspect this of being a bit of a PR experiment for the group.
People-watching on the patio
Over the last few years they've found themselves under so much more media scrutiny than usual that they've decided to show off a new "informal" front. I slightly admire them for trying. Although I'd admire them a hell of a lot more if they stopped behaving like children and held a press conference and released the minutes of the meetings.
Either that or they could give us our politicians back. Ideally before they've digested their backbones and spat them back out on into the carpark. Actually, you know what, they can keep Ed Balls as part of the deal.

Posted: Mon Jun 02, 2014 1:57 pm Post subject: The Origin of the Mystery Schools
Bilderberg is a platform for the will of the priestcraft
Understanding the Mystery Schools
There is a very interesting passage in the Bible and perhaps the first prophecy, which can be taken to be the cause for a particular aspect of the war between Lucifer and the one eyed Satan, versus god, at the time just after the events we know as the fall from the Garden of Eden when the great spirit said to Satan :
“And I will put enmity between thee (Satan) and the woman (females), and between thy seed (Satan’s) and her seed (woman’s); it (the females) shall bruise thy head (the seed of Satan), and thou (seed of Satan) shall bruise his heel
Genesis 3:15
In this sense we gain insight to the real battle which is that Lucifer and Satan have moved always to destroy the purity of human genetics in order the perfected expression of gods will through Jesus (gods seed) would be destroyed and therefore prevent his first coming. From this we can understand all that went on before the flood at its core was a battle to demolish the purity of the human genome, both scientifically and through the encouragement to evil works by individuals, each of which has the desired effect of changing the frequency that the bloodline recieves and transmits enough to prevent the virgin birth. We can also gain insight as to why Atlantis was created out of Lemuria and became its nemisis, and more importantly why they wish to recreate Atlantis as the foundation to the New World Order.
The Flood
As the battle raged to disrupt the human genetic code in the time of Noah the Nephilim priesthood were defiling not only human but animal genetics, they combined the genetics of humans with animals mixed those of the animals with other animals, creating absurd creatures some of which are remembered today in the myths of antiquity, the Greeks, the Norse, the Hindu, all having half man half animal protagonists. Examples of which are the Centaur and Minotaur, the Cyclops, and many creatures portrayed in the fairy tales and classical literature. The flood was the means to completely eradicating all the genetic mastery and technological advancements pre flood and the reason time began again according to scripture with the advancement of Babylonian culture. This of course contrary to the Bible would place the Adam and Eve story outside this current age and position it before the Lemurian and Atlantian age.
So there is a continuum of an original story.
The Sons of God
“When man began to multiply on the face of the land and daughters were born to them, the sons of god (The Fallen Angels) saw that the daughters of men were attractive. And they took as thgeir wives any they chose. Then the Lord said, “my spirit shall not abide in man forever, for he is flesh: his days shall be 120 years.”
The Nephilim were on the Earth in those days and also afterward, when the sons of god came into the daughters of man and they bore children to them. These were the mighty men who were of old, the men of renown.
Genisis 6:1-4
Interpretation
Sons of god --be nei-ha `e lo him
Septuagint translates as –angels of god (Septuagint is the Greek translation of the original Aramaic)
In the Bible it is clearly stated that :
“For if god spared not the angels that sinned but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into the chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgement”
2 Peter 2:4
In that sense we can see that the sons of god spoken about in the ancient texts are the fallen angels that were cast down to hell while remaining beings of fire we today call the evil ones .It is from here they whisper into the minds of man to lead them off the path of right being and turning them in to the emmisaries of darkness..
“And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgement of the great day.”
Jude 1:6
Today under the doctrine of the new world order the Illuminated ones are re-presenting the fallen angels as alien creatures which undermines any connection and thus responsibility to our current state of existence to ourselves…it’s the aliens did it guv. They also aim to cover their drone armies with a cloak of extra-terrestrials to form a front and protective ring around their deeds, no earthly entities will be responsible for the planned carnage and star wars light shows and therefore are also not culpable for their actions.
When Lucifer and Satan rebelled there was also one third of the angels rebelled with them, a group of which attempted to create a hybrid race in direct opposition to humans. Being angelic beings and thus immortal they cannot reproduce. but man being mortal can and must reproduce. In that sense Lucifer and Satan have a problem in the proposed and coming final battle, he will be outnumbered two to one, hence the drive to secure his own hybrid race. On this kind of information we can see how David Icke is setting up the entire white race as this hybrid race of the fallen angels and as such you can understand he is nothing other than a ‘nice’ but still a Theosophical frontman.
The Nephilim
Nephilim : “the fallen ones” Nephai : “to fall, be cast down to fall away, desert.
In the Greek
Also called HaGibborim : “the mighty ones”
There is contention that in the use of the word gigantes which translates as “giants” we missed the real term of reference, because gigas translates as “earth born” which would have them speaking directly of the Nephilim as the offspring of the fallen angels with earth women, forming the earthly bloodlines that the fallen ones possess which is then passed down through the corruption of the lines to the offspring, who become very easily accessable by the same Elohim because of the impurity of their frequency resonance, and so its power continues so long as the elite families exist. In the mating with earth women they created a mortal force which would move to further contaminate the human genome and to enable the master stroke which is to offset the imbalance for the final battle, and to keep this from the eyes and ears of the profane, L:ucifer and Satan’s influence of man on the earth would be secretly kept and fed to humans ripe for expressing only self will, in a structure and system of initiations, levels and degrees, the mystery schools are born, the format for all secret operations.
The Books of Enoch
This is a set of books formed into one book famous for it’s omittion within the Bible, yet was mentioned by Jesus, Peter, Paul and Jude in the New Testament. This is important when you understand that the new covenant was brought to replace in its entirety the old.. The book was also thought by early church fathers to be inspired yet is absent from all Bibles found today. The Book of Enoch is today the script from which all ideas of ancient aliens are taken, such as the psycho babble of Zacariah Sitchin and his planet X, Steven Spielberg with his ET and all others sucked into the alien foundation of mankind theories, David Icke of course being the current high priest.
“I heard everything from them and I understand what I saw; not for this family (his own), but for a remote generation, one that is to come.”
1Khanokh 1 The Book of Enoch
Here Enoch is describing his vision and acknowledging that he understands it, but that it’s time on the earth is for the future, this thesis is to help you understand that taking the facts as they play out in this ancient scenario.... that future is now.
The Bilderberg Group must be seen as a platform for the priestcraft into world affairs.
Several copies of the Book of Enoch were found in the last century in a find that brought forth the Dead Sea Scrolls, they were found just before the rise of Vatican II.
It is essential to then understand how Vatican II set forth in 1963, depicted in the classic trilogy "The Godfather" shifted the Vatican system out of sync with Jesus and in line with Lucifer, thus the generations after Vatican II would be us. It then stands to all reason that understanding the Book of Enoch today will help us understand what Vatican II really means and how we can see that todays Christian doctrine is no such thing.
Jesus said :
“As were the days of the Noah were, so shall be in the coming of the son of man.”
Jesus, Matthew 24:37
Here Jesus is explaining that when the son of man comes the state of the world will be as it was before the flood. Today the priesthood wield the science of genetic manipulation and engineering, they are destroying human genetics through chemical additives in food and water, they are destroying structured thinking through illicit and legal drugs, they are programming our children to all that is against morality, they are sexualising the children to become un-functioning adults and more attuned to the calls of war than the average man in peacetime.
Today we indeed exist through a time as that before the flood and the same battle can again be seen to be active against the DNA of man to prevent the righteous seed from birthing on the earth.
The Time Before the Flood
The Book of Enoch is the key to our understanding the present through understanding the past. Within the Book of Enoch we are told how many fallen angels descended, were they arrived and for the most revealing knowledge in the pursuance of the Nephilim priesthood alive and kicking today as the head of the mystery schools. The book also explains what role some 20 demons had in giving certain types of knowledge to humanity, examples :
Weapons, warfare and makeup
Azazel taught them to make swords, knives, shields and breastplates, and made known to them earth metals and the skill of working them for bracelets and jewellery. Azazel also taught the use of antimony (for colouring the eyelids) along with all types of precious stones and dye formulas. From this arose great disobedience; they were led astray; they committed immorality; they became corrupt in all their ways.
Semyaza taught cursing and root-cutting
Armaros taught curse lifting
Baraqiyael taught star-signs
Kokabel taught star patterns
Ezeqeel taught cloud lore
Araqiel taught and signs
Shamsiel taught sun signs
Sariel taught moon pathways
1 Khanokh 8 The Book of Enoch
Psychedelic drugs, vampirism, enchantments and cursing’s, astrology, Wicca.
Just look at all those subjects of knowledge which leaves only one conclusion, those in control of such systems are today the same priesthood as that of the Nephilim in the days of Noah. This shines a different light on the renaissance which was headed, at least publically as the benevolent actions of the Rosicrucian’s and all affiliated orders and societies. It was again presented to man in Theosophy with the addition of the real doctrine under which the elites operate, the Talmud.
Abortion
“The fifth was Kasdeya; this is he who showed the yeladim-a`m all the evil strikings of unclean ruachim and demonic entities. He showed them the dashing of the embryo in the womb so that it would die.”
1 Khanokh 69 The Book of Enoch
Genetic Engineering
“they started to sin against birds, beasts, reptiles, fish, and then to devour one another’s bodies, even drinking the blood. It was then the earth laid accusation against these lawless ones.”
1 Khanokh 7 The Book of Enoch
The Book of Jasher
Here is another book in which the activities of the fallen angels are described :
“[Then] the sons of men [began teaching] the mixture of animals of one species with the other, in order therewith to provoke the lord.”
Jasher 4:18
Such information could not ever have been understood until the 20th century as the science reached the heights of genetic engineering, and yet another fact pertaining to the generation of today being the future generation of Enoch’s vision. It also presents the reality that the technologies utilised in the time before the flood was far in advance of today’s technology, or at least in the public glare.
We can further advance that notion with the following :
“What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again, there is nothing new under the sun.”
Ecclesiastes 1:9
Atlantis then was the centre from which the mystery schools of the diluvium age (pre-flood) had their beginning and centre, which helps us to better understand the book by Sir Francis Bacon in which America was to be the New Atlantis. _________________ KEEP IT REAL

Bilderbergers, the SS and the Fourth Reich
The British investigative journalist Tony Gosling revealed how empowered the military-industrial complex of the British army, and how the Bilderberg group is involved. With the Bilderbergers, the SS was reorganized and created a global financial network of the multinational military power, its impact on the people of this world are no less dangerous.
By Marco Maier
http://www.contra-magazin.com/2014/05/bilderberger-ss-und-das-vierte-r eich/
The appointment of the force as a hotheaded former officer and today's Tory MPs Rory Stewart as Chairman of the Westminster Defence Committee is viewed very critically in investigative British circles. The Bilderbergers Stewart will also be in Copenhagen this year already, and there to answer the wishes of the most powerful private clubs in the world.
Just last week precipitated the Home Affairs Committee a damning verdict on the supervision of the British military and intelligence agencies. In particular, in relation to the cost of the British taxpayer. But the criminal conspiracy by the Americans, the British and the Arab League in 2003, which led to the destruction of war in Iraq could soon be surpassed. The current events in Ukraine will be available namely certainly on the Bilderberg agenda.
Looking at history, it began from 1943 - when the defeat of Germany in World War 2 was foreseeable - to form a network, in which not only the postwar order in Europe are controlled, but this also should not be welded to the United States. The "War and Peace Study Group" of the Council On Foreign Relations of the United States developed the Marshall Plan, which was used in addition to the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) to keep the West Europeans from communism.
Bilderberg as a new SS elite?
Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, the first chairman of the Bilderberg Group and part of the German aristocracy, was an early member of the NSDAP and SS Nevertheless, he was named after the German invasion in 1941, when he fled and his family to Britain by British forces as a trusted Dutch liaison officer viewed. He coordinated the collaboration with Dutch resistance fighters and prepared before the Allied invasion of the Netherlands. But his contact man, precious Lindemans, was a double agent and delivered the plans for Operation "Market Garden" the German authorities. After the war he came under mysterious circumstances in British captivity died.
The operation "Market Garden" was through the treachery of a disaster because the element of surprise to put the British now missing. A young British captain, Lord Peter Carrington, who led the Panzer Grenadiers, was himself later part of the Bilderberg Group. Interestingly, the first meeting of the group in 1954 in Oosterbeek took place, that place where the German troops were able to celebrate the last major victory, and the British Army had to complain about 10,000 deaths.
The then wrote the Treaty of Rome, which is the foundation for today's European Union goes directly back to the first Bilderberg meeting in 1954. Tony Gosling described it this way: Just as psychopaths return again and again to the scene of their crime, and Prince Bernhard returned to Oosterbeek. As a sort of hint, hint that the Nazis nearly a decade after the defeat are back. Only just a new look.
Bilderberg - the new influential oligarchy
Some 70 years after Arnhem and 60 years after the first conference in Oosterbeek was obtained from the European Economic Community (EEC), a European Union comprises 28 countries with over 500 million inhabitants. NATO serves as the military arm of the new oligarchy, consisting of business magnates, bankers, politicians, aristocrats, scientists and media moguls. SS General Hausser said after the war that the multinational SS troops had been as it were the precursor to the NATO. Former CBS News correspondent Paul Manning described in his 1981 book " Martin Bormann in exile "the transformation of the SS from a military to a financial empire.
With the transatlantic free trade agreement TTIP, which is negotiated by Bilderberg members, compliant officials and a crowd lobbyists behind closed doors, the next level of global corporate rule is intended to represent. This enabling act for the multinationals whose heads long ago are part of the Bilderberg Group, nor snatches more parts of administration of democratic control.
The establishment of a Fourth Reich that has reached Europe and North America with a massive expansion, is now very little in the way. What Himmler once considered his elite troops, his "new nobility" for Europe, became a multinational elite of the money powerful and influential. The uniforms gave way to tailored suits, the skulls of the company logo, the MP44 the financial industry. Again, pull the cohorts to the east and chosen Ukraine as a gateway to Russia. Whoever still believes the direct financial support of Bandera hordes of rights sector is an accident, which can not be helped. The pinstripe-fascists are what make people bleed for the corporate interests.
The English articles by Tony Gosling, see here .
Bilderberger, SS und das Vierte Reich
http://www.contra-magazin.com/2014/05/bilderberger-ss-und-das-vierte-r eich/
Der britische Enthüllungsjournalist Tony Gosling deckte auf, wie sich der Militärisch-Industrielle-Komplex der britischen Armee ermächtigt, und wie die Bilderberg-Gruppe daran beteiligt ist. Mit den Bilderbergern wurde die SS neu formiert und aus der multinationalen militärischen Macht ein global agierendes Finanznetzwerk geschaffen, dessen Auswirkungen auf die Menschen dieser Welt nicht minder gefährlich sind.
Von Marco Maier
Die Ernennung des als hitzköpfig geltenden ehemaligen Offiziers und heutigen Tory-Abgeordneten Rory Stewart zum Vorsitzenden des Westminster-Verteidigungsausschusses wird in investigativen britischen Kreisen äußerst kritisch gesehen. Der Bilderberger Stewart wird auch dieses Jahr in Kopenhagen dabei sein und dort die Wünsche des mächtigsten Privatklubs der Welt entgegennehmen.
Erst letzte Woche fällte der Innenausschuss ein vernichtendes Urteil über die Aufsicht der britischen Militär- und Geheimdienste. Insbesondere in Bezug auf die Kosten für die britischen Steuerzahler. Doch die kriminelle Verschwörung von Amerikanern, Briten und der Arabischen Liga 2003, die zum Vernichtungskrieg im Irak führte könnte bald schon übertroffen werden. Die aktuellen Vorgänge in der Ukraine werden nämlich gewiss auf der Bilderberg-Agenda stehen.
Betrachtet man die Geschichte, so begann sich ab 1943 – als die Niederlage Deutschlands im 2. Weltkrieg absehbar wurde – ein Netzwerk zu bilden, in dem nicht nur die Nachkriegsordnung Europas kontrolliert werden, sondern dieses auch noch an die USA geschweißt werden sollte. Die "Krieg und Frieden Studiengruppe" des Council On Foreign Relations der USA erarbeitete den Marshall-Plan, der neben dem Office of Strategic Services (OSS) dazu dienen sollte, die Westeuropäer vom Kommunismus fernzuhalten.
Bilderberger als neue SS-Elite?
Prinz Bernhard der Niederlande, der erste Vorsitzende der Bilderberg-Gruppe und Teil der deutschen Aristokratie, war ein frühes Mitglied von NSDAP und SS. Dennoch wurde er nach dem deutschem Einmarsch 1941, als er samt Familie nach Großbritannien floh, von britischen Kräften als vertrauenswürdiger niederländischer Verbindungsoffizier angesehen. Er koordinierte die Zusammenarbeit mit niederländischen Widerstandskämpfern und bereitete die alliierte Invasion in den Niederlanden vor. Doch sein Kontaktmann, Edellindemans, war Doppelagent und überbrachte die Pläne für die Operation "Market Garden" den deutschen Stellen. Nach dem Krieg kam er unter mysteriösen Umständen in britischer Gefangenschaft ums Leben.
Die Operation "Market Garden" wurde durch den Verrat zum Desaster, da der Überraschungsmoment auf den die Briten setzten nun fehlte. Ein junger britischer Hauptmann, Lord Peter Carrington, der die Panzergrenadiere führte, wurde später selbst Teil der Bilderberg-Gruppe. Interessanterweise fand das erste Treffen der Gruppe 1954 in Oosterbeek statt, jenem Ort an dem die deutschen Truppen den letzten größeren Sieg feiern konnten und die britische Armee über 10.000 Todesopfer zu beklagen hatte.
Der danach verfasste Vertrag von Rom, der den Grundstein für die heutige Europäische Union darstellt, geht direkt auf das erste Bilderberg-Treffen 1954 zurück. Tony Gosling bezeichnet es so: So wie Psychopathen immer wieder an den Ort ihres Verbrechens zurückkehren, kehrte auch Prinz Bernhard nach Oosterbeek zurück. Sozusagen als Wink mit dem Zaunpfahl, dass die Nazis knapp ein Jahrzehnt nach der Niederlage wieder zurück sind. Nur eben im neuen Gewand.
Bilderberg – die neue einflussreiche Oligarchie
Rund 70 Jahre nach Arnheim und 60 Jahre nach der ersten Konferenz in Oosterbeek wurde aus der Europäischen Wirtschaftsgemeinschaft (EWG) eine Europäische Union die 28 Länder mit über 500 Millionen Einwohnern umfasst. Die NATO dient hierbei als militärischer Arm der neuen Oligarchie, bestehend aus Wirtschaftsmagnaten, Bankern, Politikern, Adeligen, Wissenschaftlern und Medienmogulen. SS-General Hausser sagte nach dem Krieg, dass die multinationalen SS-Truppen sozusagen der Vorläufer der NATO gewesen seien. Der frühere CBS News Korrespondent Paul Manning beschrieb in seinem 1981 erschienenen Buch "Martin Bormann im Exil" die Transformation der SS von einem militärischen zu einem finanziellen Reich.
Mit dem transatlantischen Freihandelsabkommen TTIP, welches von Bilderberg-Mitgliedern, willfährigen Beamten und einer Lobbyistenschar hinter verschlossenen Türen ausverhandelt wird, soll die nächste Stufe der globalen Herrschaft der Konzerne darstellen. Dieses Ermächtigungsgesetz für die multinationalen Konzerne, deren Köpfe längst schon Teil der Bilderberg-Gruppe sind, entreißt noch mehr Teile der staatlichen Verwaltung der demokratischen Kontrolle.
Der Verwirklichung eines Vierten Reichs, welches mit Europa und Nordamerika eine gewaltige Ausdehnung erreicht hat, steht nun nur noch wenig im Weg. Was Himmler einst als seine Elitetruppe, seinen "neuen Adel" für Europa ansah, wurde zu einer multinationalen Elite der Geldmächtigen und Einflussreichen. Die Uniformen wichen den Maßanzügen, die Totenköpfe den Firmenlogos, die MP44 der Finanzindustrie. Und wieder ziehen die Kohorten nach Osten und erkoren die Ukraine als Einfallstor nach Russland. Wer da noch glaubt, die direkte finanzielle Unterstützung der Bandera-Horden des Rechten Sektors sei Zufall, dem kann nicht mehr geholfen werden. Die Nadelstreif-Faschisten sind es, welche die Menschen für die Konzerninteressen bluten lassen.

Understanding the Mystery Schools
There is a very interesting passage in the Bible and perhaps the first prophecy, which can be taken to be the cause for a particular aspect of the war between Lucifer and the one eyed Satan, versus god, at the time just after the events we know as the fall from the Garden of Eden when the great spirit said to Satan :
“And I will put enmity between thee (Satan) and the woman (females), and between thy seed (Satan’s) and her seed (woman’s); it (the females) shall bruise thy head (the seed of Satan), and thou (seed of Satan) shall bruise his heel
Genesis 3:15
