The Bilderberg meetings are too big and too brief
to be any sort of conspiracy as some would say.
It's a social event where individuals can be
comforted about their status levels or assert new
ones. In terms of importance, those on the
invitation list are not quite up to those at
Davos. But you can be sure that the really
important decision-makers have meetings which we never hear about.

Bilderberg Wrap
Charlie Skelton, Guardian, UK - This year,
Bilderberg was bigger than ever. Bigger crowds,
bigger names, more coverage. So here, starting
with about the least most important thing, is
what I've learned from this year's Bilderberg
summit in St Moritz. I've got a bit of a crush
on the Chinese vice-minister for foreign affairs. . .
Bilderbergers look down on things. I've looked
at hundreds of photos of the delegates on their
nature walk through one of the world's most
stunning valleys, and this is honestly the case:
they don't look at the view. They walk with
their heads down. They stare at their shoes. . .
This year for the first time, elected public
representatives are queueing up to find out
what's going on in their turf. An Italian MEP (a
member of the European parliament's Committee on
Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs),
Mario Borghezio, was beaten up and arrested by
Bilderberg private security. The next day Swiss
MP Dominique Baettig was denied entry for after
dinner drinks. He probably had an inkling he
wasn't going to share a cognac with Kissinger
that evening, but it spoke volumes that he tried.
The police and secret services keep the cameras
at bay. The pegged-up shower curtain hides the
hotel. Blackened windows and security escorts
protect the delicate, quivering participants
from the horror of being identified. The coyest
are never seen at all, and never make the delegate list.
Now compare that with your life. CCTV cameras
with face-recognition software scan your daily
life. Travel cards log your journeys. And
online, you'll have noticed particularly in
the last year how your accounts are all being
linked, and how you're having to constantly prove your identity.
And here's the irony. In secret, with no public
oversight, a group of politicians, billionaires
and corporate CEOs are discussing (we're told):
Social Networks: Connectivity and Security Issues.
The global policy concerning the transparency of
our social life is being thrashed out in an
untransparent forum by people whose "social
network" includes people like Henry Kissinger
and the chairman of Goldman Sachs International. . .
The Bilderberg summit is a gathering of the
richest, most powerful people in the western
world. They can afford helicopters, hundreds of
police, security personnel, secret servicemen,
floodlights, fencing, portacabins, limousines,
chauffeurs, chefs, catering, entertainment, and
the hire of a massive luxury hotel for an entire week
I found that many of the Swiss activists were
keen to flag up (often with giant flags) the
shady roots of the Bilderberg group. It's
perhaps wrong to judge present delegates on
Bilderberg's past, but the Swiss seemed
particularly attuned to this aspect of the
group's history: that it was founded in the
early 1950s by Prince Bernhard of the
Netherlands, a former SS officer and executive
in IG Farben's notorious NW7 Berlin espionage
centre. That's the IG Farben that manufactured Zyklon B and bankrolled Hitler.
Look to the hosts, and you find Bernhard's
daughter Beatrix running Bilderberg, alongside
"philanthropist" banker David Rockefeller and
the saviour of world football (and wanted war
criminal) Henry Kissinger.Look to the delegates,
and inside the same conference you've got two
people with the nickname "The Prince of
Darkness": Lord Mandelson, and Richard Perle
(the Washington uber-hawk). Read up about the
chairman of Nestlé. Then read Jon Ronson's
important new book on psychopaths. . .
