-Caveat Lector- Bilderberg - anti-Semitic hoax conspiracy? From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Brian Jenkins) Organization: FLORA Community WEB Date: 3 Jun 1999 22:33:33 -0400 Reposted from uk-anti-maif (Owen Barton, 4 Jun 1999) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 27 May 1999 13:07:40 +0100 (BST) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Multiple recipients of list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: warning: Bilderberg material is fascist hoax! Dear friends, I am writing to you urgently to warn you about material being circulated on this list (however innocently) about a 'Bilderberg Conference' . The material appears to be an attack on global power elite, but is in fact material whose source is nazis and far right politicians with very close links to big business. The purpose of the material appears to be to make people imagine there is a sinister Jewish conspiracy that is trying to dominate the world, a false idea but a dangerous one which contributed very much to Adolf Hitler's genocide of the Jewish people. I am NOT implying in any way that the people on J18 list who sent the material to the list are antisemitic or fascist themselves. It is more than possible that they have become victims of this nazi hoax. I am only warning them and the list in general about the original source of much of this material: A member of this list, Javier, (email [EMAIL PROTECTED]) posted on 26 May 1999 a message (title - Fw: <.nettime> Bilderberger (fwd)) warning us about an apparent meeting of some of the most powerful people in the world, due to take place on June in Portugal, called the Bilderberg Conference. His post consisted of a long forwarded document and his comment that perhaps we have chosen the wrong occasion to protest, and that we should in fact be protesting this Conference, rather than the G8 summit. Early in the forwarded document the Washington-based journal Spotlight is quoted as a source of information on the Bilderberg Conference. Spotlight is published by the fascist Liberty Lobby, who for years had as key figure Willis Carto. You may find much information on them by contacting any major anti-fascist organisation. Later the forwarded document presents a 'BILDERBERG '99: Partial Guest List' While the list includes many individuals who are certainly part of the world's top power elite such as Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, Tony Blair, etc, it also includes a fantastic proportion of Israelis and Jews. It is clear that the 'Guest List' cannot be an official document from the organisers of such a Conference - (there are many spelling and other errors, billiionaire Warren Buffet has his personal name and his company name listed the wrong way round, one company entry has the comment 'of blessed memory' written next to it and King Hussein of Jordan appears as an invited guest with the comment in brackets that he is dead(!) However, even if we were to believe that this is an accurate 'partial guest list' of a conference for world domination drawn up by a good anti-capitalist, who happened to have inside information, then we need to ask several questions. Is it likely that enormously powerful members of the ruling elite like Warren Buffet and Bill Clinton would sit round a table with popular left- of -centre Israeli authors like AB Yehoshua and Amos Oz to discuss how to rule the world? Why is there a long list of academics from Israeli universities on this list, and virtually no academics from any other countries? Why are so many of the 'guests' representatives from top multinationals who are Jewish or who have Jewish-sounding names, rather than the non-Jewish heads of these businesses? <<< snip section on Tony Goslings site - I do not think this section was well founded, although perhaps Tony would be wise to make the existance of far right propaganda on this issue more clear, so people can begin to filter out this misinformation >>> I beg all J18 activists to be extremely wary of any information now being put over the Internet re this 'Bilderberg Conference' . Demand to know the original sources of all the information. It would be nice if the two subscribers who offered this material to the list could do a very thorough research of all the documents or websites they have referred us to and then tell us what they discover. I will post more information on this as soon as I have time.
