    Infowars analysis note: The official list ends above. What’s important to understand is that there are always members who will be attending, but who don’t want to be included in the list.

    Yesterday, Bilderberg put out a press release detailing the official talking points to be addressed at this year’s meeting. From our research, this is not their primary agenda, but usually one put out to appease the media:

    Copenhagen, 26 May 2014 – The 62nd Bilderberg meeting is set to take place from 29 May until 1 June 2014 in Copenhagen, Denmark. A total of around 140 participants from 22 countries have confirmed their attendance. As ever, a diverse group of political leaders and experts from industry, finance, academia and the media have been invited. The list of participants is available on www.bilderbergmeetings.org

    The key topics for discussion this year include:

    • Is the economic recovery sustainable?
    • Who will pay for the demographics?
    • Does privacy exist?
    • How special is the relationship in intelligence sharing?
    • Big shifts in technology and jobs
    • The future of democracy and the middle class trap
    • China’s political and economic outlook
    The new architecture of the Middle East
    • Ukraine
    • What next for Europe?
    • Current events

    Founded in 1954, Bilderberg is an annual conference designed to foster dialogue between Europe and North America. Every year, between 120-150 political leaders and experts from industry, finance, academia and the media are invited to take part in the conference. About two thirds of the participants come from Europe and the rest from North America; approximately one third from politics and government and the rest from other fields.

    The conference is a forum for informal discussions about major issues facing the world. The meetings are held under the Chatham House Rule, which states that participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s) nor of any other participant may be revealed.

    Thanks to the private nature of the conference, the participants are not bound by the conventions of their office or by pre-agreed positions. As such, they can take time to listen, reflect and gather insights.

    There is no desired outcome, no resolutions are proposed, no votes are taken, and no policy statements are issued.

    Bilderberg Agenda Revealed: Elite Desperate to Rescue Unipolar World

    Paul Joseph Watson

    The 2014 Bilderberg meeting in Copenhagen, Denmark is taking place amidst a climate of panic for many of the 120 globalists set to attend the secretive confab, with Russia’s intransigence on the crisis in Ukraine and the anti-EU revolution sweeping Europe posing a serious threat to the unipolar world order Bilderberg spent over 60 years helping to build.

    Inside sources confirm to Infowars that the elite conference, which will take place from Thursday onwards at the five star Marriott Hotel, will center around how to derail a global political awakening that threatens to hinder Bilderberg’s long standing agenda to centralize power into a one world political federation, a goal set to be advanced with the passage of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), which will undoubtedly be a central topic of discussion at this year’s meeting.

    The TTIP represents an integral component of Bilderberg’s attempt to rescue the unipolar world by creating a “world company,” initially a free trade area, which would connect the United States with Europe. Just as the European Union started as a mere free trade area and was eventually transformed into a political federation which controls upwards of 50 per cent of its member states’ laws and regulations with total contempt for national sovereignty and democracy, TTIP is designed to accomplish the same goal, only on a bigger scale.

    The deal is being spearheaded by Obama’s U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman, a Wall Street insider and a CFR member, Bilderberg’s sister organization. Froman is simultaneously helping to build another block of this global government, the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which is a similar project involving Asian countries.

    Given that Bilderberg schemed to create the Euro single currency as far back as 1955 (Bilderberg chairman Étienne Davignon bragged about how the Euro single currency was a brainchild of the Bilderberg in 2009 interview), the results of the European elections are sure to have stirred outright alarm amongst Bilderberg globalists who are aghast that their planned EU superstate is being eroded as a result of a populist resistance mainly centered around animosity towards uncontrolled immigration policies.

    In Denmark itself, the buzz is centered around Morten Messerschmidt and the Danish People’s party, which won 27% of the vote in the Euro elections and doubled its number of MEPs. Although some are wary of Messerschmidt’s far right inclinations, his success reflects a general resentment not only in Denmark but across Europe towards immigration and the welfare state, concerns that the EU has only exasperated.

    Meanwhile in France, Marine Le Pen is carving out a role as the face of a conservative movement that threatens “to break up one united Europe,” with her European election win being described as an “earthquake” that has rattled the political heart of Europe.

    Voters in the United Kingdom also delivered a thumping rejection of the EU and in turn Bilderberg with the success of Nigel Farage and UKIP, a Euroskeptic triumph some are labeling the “most extraordinary” election result for 100 years.

    As well as TTIP and the fallout from the European election disaster, Bilderberg will be tackling a number of other key issues, most of which will revolve around the continued effort to centralize economic power under several different guises, including a carbon tax paid directly to the United Nations, with the financial hit being taken by individuals as big companies are granted special “waivers” that will allow them to continue to pollute.

    The rumbling crisis in Ukraine and the relationship between Russia and NATO will also be a focal point of Bilderberg 2014. Globalists now consider Vladimir Putin to have ostracized Russia from the new world order because he dared to “challenge the international system,” as John Kerry put it.

    Bilderberg will discuss fears that Putin is intent on constructing an alternative world order based around the BRICS countries, a “multi-polar” system that would devastate the dollar as the world reserve currency and also heavily dilute the current US-EU-NATO power axis.

  • Novartis Chairmain Vasella lends helicopter to Swiss Police at Bilderberg 2011

    Novartis Chairmain Vasella lends helicopter to Swiss Police at Bilderberg 2011

    BilderbergSwiss Mainstream News: Novartis Chairmain Vasella lends helicopter to Swiss Police at Bilderberg 2011

    by Stefan Bisculm

    Global Research, July 11, 2011

    At the Bilderberg Conference host Daniel Vasella provided a helicopter to be used for free by the Police of the Canton Grison. Critics of the Meeting consider this as evidence of creeping privatization of the police force.

    St.Moritz. – The police is neutral, they neither distinguish between rich and poor, nor between VIPs and normal citizens. To the police only the law counts, the ones that don’t comply, will be held accountable. This self- proclaiming principle of a democratic state is viewed by critics of the Bilderberg Conference as being endangered. A source of suspicion is a photo published recently by the blog alles-schallundrauch.blogspot.com.

    The picture shows a helicopter of army-green color, which wasequiped with markings of the Police of the Canton of Grison on its side. As the license number reveals, the helicopter belongs to the company Japat AG, a 100% subsidiary of Novartis. The vehicle was possibly used exclusively for the transporting of Novartis executives.Thomas Hobi, press spokesperson of the Police of Canton of Grison confirmed the helicopter in question was used by the police for transport and air surveillance. The helicopter was provided for use free of charge by the host organization of the meeting. it is important to know that Novartis CEO Daniel Vasella was this years host of the Bilderberg Conference at the “Suvretta House”. People of influence from politics and economics are invited to this private international meeting. The agenda as well as the list of participants usually remain secret.

    Swiss Legislator demandes Parliamentary Investigation Comity

    A prominent critic of the mystery- shrouded meeting is Jura- based National Councilor of the Swiss Peoples Party Dominique Baettig. He confirmed on inquiry that he will lounge a petition to establish a Parliamentary Investigation Comity (PUK), which aims on shedding light one the procedures of this years conference. In the petition hi asks for instance: “Why could Mr. Vasella provide his helicopter to the police and what are the costs of this corruption?” For Baettig the lending of a helicopter means a first step to privatization of state and police. “This procedure is a bad sign for the separation of state  and private sector.

    Concealed license plates

    Manfred Petritsch was the one to post the helicopter image on the internet. As a blogger he regularly writes critical articles on government and economics and as an outspoken opponent of the Bilderberg Conference he was also present in St.Moritz.

    After the helicopter deal he no longer believes in the police of Crison’s neutrality.

    “Wen the CEO of a leading global corporation lends his helicopter to the police, it’s clear one who’s side they are, certainly not on ours.”  For Petritsch it becomes also clear that the police distinguished between VIPs and normal citizens at least during the Bilderberg Conference by the fact that many cars of Bilderberg participants had their license plates covered up without interference of the police.

    Government does not understand concerns.

    Councilor of State Barbara Janon- Steiner does not understand the fuzz abate the borrowed helicopter. The Head of the Crison Justic Departement denies a conflict of interest as regarded by Bilderberg critics. Attendees the meeting included people that are protected by the vienna treaty, wherefore the Grison Police imposed security in collaboration with the Federal Security Service. “In order to fulfill this mission, we needed a helicopter anyway. That beeig provided by the host organization was as direct contribution to the costs of security. At least, in this way, we could avoid additional costs.” According to Janin- Steiner, the Bilderberg Group will contribute a substantial sum to the overall costs of the meeting. “The contribution will be several times that to be paid by the public.”
