The True Story of the Bilderberg Group
By Daniel Estulin
TrineDay
ISBN-10: 0977795349
"It is difficult to re-educate people who have been brought up on nationalism to the idea of relinquishing part of their sovereignty to a supra-national body." --
Bilderberg Group founder, Prince Bernhard
Daniel Estulin is a Madrid-based journalist and an investigative reporter who took on the daunting and dangerous task of researching the Bildeberg Group, and who offers his findings in
The True Story Of The Bilderberg Group, published by
TrineDay.
Equally intriguing as his harrowing tales of being followed and nearly killed on a couple of occasions while working on the book, is the manner in which Estulin connects the dots between the
Bilderberg Group, world events, notable politicians and corporate tycoons and the two other secretive monsters of the ruling elite,
the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and
the Trilateral Commission (TC). The project lasted 15 years and was motivated by Estulin's curiosity about how it is that the mainstream media have never covered in depth the meetings of the Bilderberg Group whose combined wealth exceeds the combined wealth of all U.S. citizens.
What Estulin's book makes clear is that the group, along with the CFR and TC, has become a shadow government whose top priority is to erase the sovereignty of all nation-states and supplant them with global corporate control of their economies under the surveillance of
"an electronic global police state." [xv]
The author emphasizes that not all members of the group are "bad" people, and he implies that membership is structured somewhat like concentric circles in a target scheme with an inner core and various levels of relationship between that core and the outer circles of membership. Almost every famous player in politics and finance in the world is a member of one of the three organizations above mentioned, and their political affiliations range from liberal to conservative,
for example, George W. Bush, George Soros, Gerald Ford, George McGovern, Jimmy Carter.
Of this private club, Estulin says:
"This parallel world remains unseen in the daily struggles of most of humanity, but, believe me, it is there: a cesspool of duplicity and lies and double-speak and innuendo and blackmail and bribery. It is a surreal world of double and triple agents, of changing loyalties, of professional psychotic assassins, brainwashed black ops agents, soldiers of fortune and mercenaries, whose primary sources of income are the dirtiest and most despicable government-run subversive missions -- the kind that can never be exposed." [1]
This world, according to Estulin, is so perverse and evil that "it has left an indelible mark on my soul". [16] How not? "Because the Bilderberg Group and its two other triplets, the CFR and the TC have set about to loot the entire planet.
Their members run the central banks of the world and are poised to control discount rates, money-supply, interest rates, gold prices, and which countries receive or do not receive loans. Membership is by invitation only, many of the earliest members being handpicked, not from right-wing groups but from but from among none other than the Fabian Socialists who ultimately supported global government."
Estulin points out that
"almost all of the presidential candidates for both parties have belonged to at least one of these organizations, many of the U.S. congressmen and senators, most major policy-making positions, especially in the field of foreign relations, much of the press, most of the leadership of the CIA, FBI, IRS, and many of the remaining governmental organizations in Washington. CFR members occupy nearly all White House cabinet positions."(80) When one considers that most prominent members of mainstream media are also members of what Edith Kermit Roosevelt, granddaughter of Theodore Roosevelt called
"this legitimate Mafia", how can we assert that Americans obtain their news from independent sources?
For example, The News Hour with Jim Leher is the cornerstone of PBS's programming. Leher is a CFR member, and when one examines the funding of the news hour by Archer Daniels Midland (ADM), whose chairman. Dwayne Andreas. was a member of the Trilateral Commission; Pepsico, whose CEO, Indra Krishnamurthy Nooyi, is a Bilderberger and TC Executive Committee member; and Smith Barney which is interlocked with Citigroup, a global financial services company that is a member of the Bilderberg Group, the CFR, and the TC, what kind of "news" should one expect from Leher's News Hour? Consider also that many of the journalists on the News Hour: Paul Gigot, David Gergen, William Kristol, and William Safire are members of one or more of the three groups. [153]
Likewise, when we consider the membership in one or more of these groups of almost every American president since the inception of these organizations,
we can no longer pretend that any Democratic or Republican presidential candidate offers the American people an alternative to ruling elite global hegemony.
In fact, Estulin's research reveals that "the Council on Foreign Relations creates and delivers psycho-political operations by manipulating people's reality through a
?tactic of deception,' placing Council members on both sides of an issue. The deception is complete when the public is led to believe that its own best interests are being served while the CFR policy is being carried out." [117]
In case you haven't noticed, this "gradual collapse of the U.S. economy" is no longer gradual, and what Estulin is asserting confirms a great deal of the
assertions made by Catherine Austin Fitts that the current housing bubble explosion/credit crunch/mortgage meltdown has its roots in the 1980s. James Howard Kunstler has also recently written an article on his blog, entitled "
Shock and Awe," that the great American yard sale has begun. In other words, as an engineered economic meltdown drives hundreds of thousands and eventually millions of businesses and individuals into bankruptcy, key players in the Big Three ruling elite organizations can buy up the train wreck left behind for pennies on the dollar --
a brilliant fast-track strategy for owning the world.
No one could have said it better than
David Rockefeller, founder of the Trilateral Commission, a Bilderberg member and board member of the Council On Foreign Relations in his Memoirs: "Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as ?internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure-one world, if you will. If that's the charge,
I stand guilty, and I am proud of it."
If you want to know who really runs the world and the lengths to which they will go to establish their globalist hegemony, you must read Estulin's well-documented T
he True Story of The Bilderberg Group.
