This year, Bilderberg was exposed at a posh resort in a tiny
village 40 miles from Munich (the Dorint Sofitel Seehotel
Ueberfahrt in Rottach-Egern, a five-star conference and
business hotel). Bilderberg has roughly 120 participants, including
international financiers, heads of state and other high officials
from Europe and North America. U.S. luminaries include David
Rockefeller and Henry Kissinger.
All recent presidents, except the current George W. Bush, have
been linked, either directly or by involvement with Bilderberg's
brother group, the Trilateral Commission. The two groups have
interlocking leadership and a common agenda. Here are some past
presidents who have been connected:
Jerry Ford, Bilderberg; Jimmy Carter, Trilateral; Ronald Reagan,
a critic of the Trilateralists until entering the White House,
where he held a reception for them; Bush the Elder, Trilateral;
and Bill Clinton, Bilderberg.
The White House and the departments of state, defense and treasury
are always represented at Bilderberg, along with other high
officials. They lie and say they are attending no such meeting.
The ritzy resort that Bilderberg takes over, banishing all other
guests, also lies and says no such meeting is taking place.
