Attention, planet Earth: Your future is being decided today at the annual Bilderberg Group (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilderberg_Group) conference. This year's five-star resort site is the Klassis Hotel in Silivri, Turkey, 40 miles from Istanbul.
Conspiracy theorists have long thought that the Bilderbergers were a shadowy cabal of pols and industrialists trying to rule the planet and even establish a New World Order.
And some of the attendees would smugly agree with that assessment. That's what Brit author Jon Ronson (http://www.jonronson.com/) says in a fascinating CNN Europe report from a couple of years ago that you can view here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ0VkaMRHYs).
Among this year's attendees (http://www.todayszaman.com/tz-web/detaylar.do?load=detay&link=112758&bolum=102) at the extremely private (nay, secretive) meetings, according to the Turkish paper Today's Zaman, will be ousted World Bank prexy Paul Wolfowitz, along with the usual cast of characters led by Henry Kissinger.
Let's hope the self-anointed world leaders who are gathering there will shoot some good golf scores. Otherwise, they might take out their frustrations on the rest of us.
Back in the '90s, when the militia movement was gathering steam in the U.S., those right-wing extremists often focused on the Bilderbergers as proof of a coming New World Order.
They were kinda correct. Fortunately, however, with attendees like Wolfowitz (and such weak goniffs as New York governor George Pataki, who went last year (http://www.nysun.com/article/34231?page_no=1)), I wouldn't put too much stock in their plans. Wolfie, as it was noted earlier by the Washington Post during his final daze at the World Bank, was such a poor administrator (http://villagevoice.com/blogs/bushbeat/archive/2007/05/whos_next_at_th.php) at the Pentagon and bank that he couldn't organize a two-car funeral (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/05/17/AR2007051702376_pf.html).

Rick Perry's Bilderberg Visit Violation Of Logan Act?
Texas Governor's visit to ultra secret elitist group could be criminal, press secretary refuses to comment Paul Joseph Watson

Texas Governor Rick Perry is amongst the attendees at this year's secretive Bilderberg Group meeting in Istanbul Turkey, but his visit could be a violation of the Logan Act, a 1799 law that criminalizes unauthorized U.S. citizens from negotiating with foreign governments.



"Gov. Rick Perry is flying to Istanbul, Turkey, today to speak at the super-secret Bilderberg Conference, a meeting of about 130 international leaders in business, media and politics," reports the Dallas Morning News.

"Robert Black, the governor's press secretary, said the governor was invited to attend and speak about state-federal relations. Mr. Black dismissed the conspiracy theories."

"He's looking forward to learning the secret handshake," Mr. Black joked."

Sophomoric joking aside, Perry's attendance at a behind closed doors, and armed guards, meeting, in which the content of what is discussed will remain totally secret is a potential violation of the Logan Act (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logan_Act).

The Logan Act states, "Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both."
The Logan Act also bars public officials from meeting with private citizens to make policy, a crime for which the Clinton White House was fined $300,000 for, according to Bilderberg sleuth Jim Tucker.
Rick Perry seems to have attempted to get ahead of accusations that he was violating the act in making the visit by claiming the trip was paid for out of campaign contributions and not by taxpayers, but this is inconsequential.
Perry's press secretary declined to give a statement when we called and denied any knowledge of the Logan Act, yet seemed to be fully aware of it in claiming Bilderberg was a private meeting. Since the Logan Act also bars private citizens from negotiating with foreign officials, Perry is still violating the law.

The fact that Bilderberg has a proven track record of creating consensus for policy that is enacted shortly down the line also betrays the group as wholly undemocratic and criminal in its secrecy, further violating the Logan Act.
The BBC uncovered documents form a former Bilderberg member (http://www.propagandamatrix.com/bbc_radio_4_bilderberg.mp3) dating back to the early 50's betraying the fact that the European Union and the single Euro currency were both brainchild's of the Bilderberg Group.
At the 2005 Bilderberg meeting in Munich Germany, leaked talking points obtained from the speeches (http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/may2005/280505targetingpatriots.htm) given at the conference indicated that Bilderberg expected oil prices to surge over the next 12 months, which is exactly what happened.
Bilderberg has a proven history of acting in a kingmaker capacity. Both Bill Clinton and Tony Blair attended before becoming President and Prime Minister and the mainstream media reported (http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/july2004/080704bilderbergperformance.htm) that Bilderberg selected John Edwards as Kerry's running mate in 2004. Hillary Clinton was rumored to have attended (http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/june2006/150606clintonattend.htm) last year's conference.

Wolfowitz, Kissinger to attend the Bilderberg meeting Todayâ??s Zaman (http://www.todayszaman.com/tz-web/detaylar.do?load=detay&link=112758&bolum=102)
Thursday May 31, 2007
The Bilderberg Group, which brings together people of influence from around the world, will begin its 2007 meeting in Turkey today.
Bilderberg is an annual conference of the global elite, the location of which changes every year. Power brokers from industry, oil companies, politics, banking, business, academia, royalty and the media get together to privately discuss the course of the world with no outside press coverage whatsoever. The secrecy of the group has attracted criticism and given rise to much conspiracy theory about possible covert plans of the global elite to rule the world. Many treat the meeting as a significant event during which participants also determine the following yearâ??s agenda.
However, the group claims it does not set policy.
The elite group will be meeting today at the Klassis Hotel in the town of Silivri, 40 miles from Istanbul.
Sources say the meeting, which will be held from May 31 to June 3, will mainly focus on issues such as a probable operation against Iran, energy policies and Turkeyâ??s EU membership process. During last year`s meeting, Turkey-EU relations were discussed quite intensely by the participants.
Two Bilderberg conferences were previously held in Turkey, the first in 1959 in Istanbul and the other in 1975 in Ã?esme, near the Aegean city of Izmir.
Economy Minister Ali Babacan, KO� Holding CEO Mustafa Koç and Yeni Safak columnist Fehmi Koru are some of the Turks expected to attend the conference, while former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, former World Bank President Paul Wolfowitz, former US Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and UN Development Programme (UNDP) chief Kemal Dervis are some of the international personalities expected to attend this year`s meeting.
