World War III will materialize
By Mark West
Begin with Paul Volker, Larry Summers, Richard Holbrooke and Robert Rubin. Toss in Henry Kissinger, David Rockefeller, Bill Gates, and Eric Schmidt.
Add a pinch of protester pressure and a hearty helping of heads of state. Then stir briskly while adding leaders from the global financial community as well as 300 Spanish police personnel for good measure. Finally, exclude the mass media and we can call it ameeting conference.
Actually, what we really have is just a sample of the 130 world leaders who met this weekend (June 3-6, 2010) in Catalona, Spain. I know, you missed it, but you weren't invited! Don't feel too bad; Fox News, CNN, and MSNBC were also on the snub list.
Few reporters attended and those who did faced harassment and arrest, while remaining a mandated distance away so they couldn't photograph themeeting's attendees conference's participants. Isn't it strange that these power brokers want to meet together in public, yet do so unobserved?!
Apparently, the Times of London and London Guardian were the only actual uninvited "media" to cover the event.
Exact facts are hard to come by in such a sterile atmosphere. We're left with rumors and rumors of rumors. It reminds me of my argumentative youth when I reveled in endless debates, like whether or not a tree makes a sound if it falls in the forest and no one is there to see it.
Endless debates like that must boil down to results. In the end, we know the tree both fell and made a sound because it is lying on the ground, whether we were there to see it or not. Results = Evidence!
The Hotel Dolce Sitges in Catalona, Spain was the chosen covey for the annual meeting this year. You read it right, I wrote "annual." This group has been meeting annually for decades! As a matter of fact, they've actually met in the United States and I bet you had no clue!
The Westfields Marriott in Chantilly, Virginia was ground zero for this group'smeeting conference in June of 2008. Located a shade down the road from where Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton disappeared on June 5th of 2008 for their own "secret" (press uninvited) meeting, during their primaries in Virginia.
Sticking out like a downed tree in a forest, the results of these conferences bear notice.
On one hand, the 2008 conference was a tale of three Presidential hopefuls. Senator John Edwards, Governors Mark Sanford, and Rick Perry, were all exposed as Presidential wannabes after their participation in the conference.
Sanford attempted to imbed his name in our collective vernacular by rejecting federal stimulus funds for his state, only to have it tarnished by an Argentinean affair.
Perry is attempting to become the lynchpin of the state's rights movement by advocating Texas' succession from the United States.
Edward's Presidential aspirations were shipwrecked by his own infidelity and alleged love child.
On the other hand, the 2008 conference was weaved into our financial fabric. Goldman-Sachs' trinity of FED Chairman Ben Bernanke, Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson, and New York FED Chairman Tim Geithner were propelled in one way or another following the conference.
Bernanke is still FED chairman in a new Administration. After helping craft the Banker Bailout Bill, he now administers it and he refuses to tell us who get's the emergency lending.
Paulson battled for the Banker Bailout Bill, even threatening members of Congress with martial law if the bill failed to pass. He was replaced by Bernanke's protégé Geithner.
These conferences are organized by a group known only by the name Bilderberg, given to it following their first meeting at the Hotel de Bilderberg in Arnhem, Netherlands May 29-31, 1954. Sworn to Chatham House secrecy rules, participants insure that what happens in Bilderberg, stays in Bilderberg. Bilderberg conferences are not open to the press or the public, invitation only.
I do know that the trusty word says, "men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds are evil."
No one really knows whether evil flows from the throes of these conferences? All we have are the results, names to watch (mentioned above) and rumors to follow (mentioned below).
Like the rumor that circulated after the 2006 conference in Canada. Rumor had it that gas prices would lift to about $130 per barrel within a year followed by an easing back to current prices. At the time gas was going for $60 per barrel.
Other rumors from past conferences have also emerged into reality. One such rumor involved an international tax that would be imposed and collected through environmental (Cap and Trade) legislation. This legislation has passed the US House and is now in the Senate.
Another recent rumor is that a global currency will emerge to replace the fallen EURO and battered dollar. Wasn't that Russian President Medvedev holding a coin for this currency last year?
Emanating from this year's conference is the rumor of global conflict! Apparently, a strike, military or nuclear, will occur, ushering in the anticipated war with Iran. And practically, from the vapor, World War III will materialize.
Results=Evidence! We will see.
