EXEMPLARY COMMUNISM BY POWER ELITES

Communist theory has become Power Elite practice. (Written in 2004)

They come together in a variety of places and forums to share their views on how best to achieve the maximization of their power. One such forum is the Bilderberg Society that is a current Western example of Power Elites composition and functioning. In that forum, the planned economy and equitable distribution of wealth closely resembles communist theory and practice. The real difference is that instead of eliminating private property, the system aggrandizes private property owned by the Power Elites rather than the laboring masses. Also, rather than operating under a dictatorship, the system operates as would a close-knit international family for the benefit of the family; a kind of Mafia without a Don and with all members as consigliore.

With the exception of special guest reporters, journalists are barred from Bilderberg meetings. The secret services of the United States and several European nations coordinate with local police to enforce a strict "no-go" area around Bilderberg venues such as the Turnberry Hotel in Scotland. Since the Group's first meeting in 1954, its security network has been specifically used to prevent reporters from sneaking into the forum.

Critics have suggested that the media have been slow to investigate and report on the Bilderberg because many corporate news executives and journalists are members of the Group. Like all other Bilderberg attendees, these individuals have agreed to remain silent about the meetings in spite of their responsibilities as high-ranking members of the national and international media.
"Guests of the Bilderberg Society are bound by the same rules as members of the Bilderberg Society -- not to write about the proceedings," the late conservative columnist William F. Buckley wrote six months after attending the Bilderberg's 1975 meeting.

Is it at all significant that world media is controlled or manipulated by Power Elites? Of course. Is it believable that they are influenced in important ways by the giants of Bilderberg? Of course. Some of the Bilderberg's past "guests" from the corporate media include:
News Corporation director Andrew Knight; Reuters CEO Peter Job; Henry Anatole Grunwald, former editor-in-chief of Time and Council on Foreign Relations member; Mortimer B. Zuckerman, chairman and editor-in-chief of U.S. News and World Report, New York Daily News, and Atlantic Monthly, also a Council on Foreign Relations member; Robert L. Bartley, vice president of the Wall Street Journal and member of both the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission; Peter Robert Kann, Chairman and CEO of Dow Jones and Company, and member of the Council on Foreign Relations; Katharine Graham, owner and chairwoman of the executive committee of the Washington Post, also a member of both the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission; Jim Hoagland, associate editor, of the Washington Post; New York Times editor and Council on Foreign Relations member Arthur Sulzberger; Former Newsweek editor Osborn Eliot; London Observer editor Will Hutton; Canadian press baron Conrad Black; Peter Jennings, anchor and senior editor of ABC's World News Tonight; Lesley R. Stahl, CBS national affairs correspondent; WETA-TV president and CEO Sharon Percy Rockefeller; William F. Buckley, Jr., editor-in-chief of the National Review, host of PBS's Firing Line and Council on Foreign Relations member; Prominent political columnists Joseph Kraft, James Reston, Joseph Harsch, George Will, and Flora Lewis; Donald C. Cook, former European diplomatic correspondent for the Los Angeles Times and Council on Foreign Relations member; Albert J. Wohlstetter, Wall Street Journal correspondent and Council on Foreign Relations member; Thomas L. Friedman, New York Times columnist and member of both the Council on Foreign Relations and the Trilateral Commission; New York Times book critic Richard Bernstein; Hedley Donovan, Henry Grunwald, and Ralph Davidson of Time; Joseph C. Harsch, former NBC commentator and Council on Foreign Relations member; Bill Moyers, executive director of Public Affairs TV and former Director of the Council on Foreign Relations; Gerald Piel, former chairman of Scientific American and Council on Foreign Relations member; William Kristol, editor and publisher of the British Weekly Standard magazine; Toger Seidenfaden, editor in chief of Denmark's Politiken A/S.

Journalists and newspeople outside the Bilderberg's elite inner circle rarely pay much attention to the Group's activities, usually because they are unaware of them. In recent years, citizen media activists have had a small measure of success in getting the local media to cover Bilderberg meetings when they occur. These reports have little impact in the national and international media, but thanks to the Internet, detailed information from coverage by local and regional newspapers is now available to the public worldwide. Although underground information activists have managed to pierce the local media bubbles and gather useful information about the Bilderberg's meetings, scrutiny of the Group in the establishment press is still verboten.
(The above information was obtained from “Bilderberg media blackout,” an article posted on meta-religion.com. Google can also supply a wealth of information on the group. Forgive the pun.)

Here is a partial non-media guest list of the 2004 meeting obtained by WorldNetDaily – which includes Senators John Edwards, D-N.C. and Jon Corzine, D-N.J., Henry Kissinger, Richard Perle, Melinda Gates (wife of Bill Gates), David Rockefeller, Timothy F. Geithner, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, Donald Graham, chairman and CEO of the Washington Post Company, and even Ralph Reed, former head of the Christian Coalition.
