... (c) www.lobster-magazine.co.uk (Issue 32) December 1996 Last| Contents| Next Issue 32 The Bilderberg Group and the project of European unification Mike Peters Introduction Despite their reputation for 'empiricism', British academics have tended to treat political power by means of abstract concepts rather than empirical information about the actions of determinate individuals and groups (e.g. Giddens, 1984, 1985; Scott, 1986). After a brief efflorescence of empirical studies of the so-called 'Establishment' in the early 1960s, sociologists in Britain became diverted from empirical investigation of power, as the study of national and international power-structures became conducted under the aegis of increasingly abstract theoretical categories derived from Marxism, and in ...

... (c) www.lobster-magazine.co.uk (Issue 38) Winter 1999 Last| Contents| Next Issue 38 New World Disorders: Bilderberg, Trilateral and the European Union Thanks chiefly to the efforts of the Irish MEP Patricia McKenna, we now know quite a lot about about the relationship between the European Union and members of various elite management groups, notably the Trilateral Commission and the Bilderberg Group. Romano Prodi, now President of the European Commission, was a Steering Committee Member of the Bilderberg Group in the 80s- he is in their booklet in 1982.(1) Prodi has limited the declarations of interests required of his Commissioners to the last 10 years, something not done in the ...

... (c) www.lobster-magazine.co.uk (Issue 35) Summer 1998 Last| Contents| Next Issue 35 A Bilderberg Press Release I don't think I've ever published a press release before, but this is unmistakably a press release from last year's Bilderberg meeting.(1) There is the occasional oddity in this, possibly caused by e-mail transmission, which I've highlighted, and I've arranged the participants by country, rather than alphabetically as in the original. Otherwise it is au naturel. I have itallicised surnames, and the letters before each name are country identifiers except for the prefix INT, which must mean international. Notes: The 1998 Bilderberg meeting in Scotland in May was the subject of ...

... (c) www.lobster-magazine.co.uk (Issue 41) Summer 2001 Last| Contents| Next Issue 41 Was the 1974 oil price hike engineered by the Bilderberg group? The Observer is a pale shadow of what it once was but it still has a lively Business section. Every fortnight Business carries a column from the American investigative journalist Greg Palast who is about as good as it gets these days on the interface between corporate interests and politicians. (1) In that Business section on 14 January, p.7, was a long interview with Sheikh Yamani, who was the Saudi Oil Minister from 1962-86. In which was the following. Of the notorious 1974 'oil price hike' Yamani is ...

(c) www.lobster-magazine.co.uk (Issue 54) Winter 2007/8 Last| Contents| Next Issue 54 The True Story of the Bilderberg Group Daniel Estulin Waterville (Oregon): TrineDay, 2007, $24.95, p/b To use an old word which has recently reentered my vocabulary, this is complete tosh. When it arrived I opened it at random and my eye fell on this, from a list of Bilderberg's aims on p. 43: 'One Socialist Welfare State. The Bilderbergers envision a socialist welfare state, where obedient slaves will be rewarded and non-conformism targeted for exter-mination'. This told me that the author was somewhere over on the Right and that he ...

... this is the most important single piece of research on NuLab's origins. Looking at this piece and Scott-Smith's related piece on the US promotion of Margaret Thatcher, if it is too much to say that they show how Uncle Sam installed governments of his choosing in Britain, it is not very much too much to say that. Obama and the Bilderbergers Bilderberg is now a legitimate subject for the Anglo-American media. Stories about it have appeared this year on the CBS News website(2) and in The Times.(3) Has the Bilderberg meeting stopped asking for media silence? That would be my guess. Never mind that the CBS story inevitably framed the subject matter Bilderbergers in ...

... more complicated. Skolnick's example doesn't really work because he doesn't need to investigate the politics of this bus company; he knows what kind of bus he's getting on. I would not publish in The Spotlight, but on the other hand The Spotlight have been one of the few magazines to publish information on the transnational power elite organisations such as Bilderberg and the Trilateral Commission in the last decade. Should I not read the information put out by The Spotlight because the magazine's politics are repellent? Surely not. But what would you bet that the fact I refer to a Spotlight publication about the Bilderbergers later in this piece, is used against me in the future- perhaps by Searchlight ...

... Marjorie Mowlam, Shadow Chief Secretary, at his side, toured the City's dining rooms announcing Labour's conversion to economic orthodoxy- the most complete and protracted act of political surrender in British history this century. Further, while John Smith was spurning the skills of Mr Mandelson and wooing the money-lenders he was a member of the Steering Committee of the Bilderberg Group, in the inner circle;(2) and Bilderberg has been one of the leading forums promoting the transnational, American-dominated New World Order which is now wrecking the world. Then there was Smith's life-long friendship with Baroness (Meta) Ramsay, the former career SIS officer, with whom he became friends at university. She became ...

... alternatives. Typically, since there was no wish to have control of WAY pass to either the CIA or European Federalist groups, the funding had to continue in order to keep this 'sphere of influence' under British direction. Valerie Aubourg illustrated how the informal networks of the US-European elite produced influential forums for idea-sharing such as the Atlantic Institute and Bilderberg. Bilderberg had a major Benelux input, with Josef Retinger utilising his contacts with the Dutch and Belgian political and economic elite (Rijkens, van Zeeland, van Kleffens) to get the plan off the ground. Auborg emphasised the pivotal role of Prince Bernhard in the early stages, since it was he who set up the initial framework ...

... theory culture. A bit like Louis Theroux, Ronson tries to come across to his subjects as a completely harmless nebbisch in the hope that they won't notice him playing out the rope with which they hang themselves. On TV it was sporadically entertaining, depending on the quality of the subject: Jim Tucker of Spotlight and his decades of pursuing Bilderberg, Randy Weaver of the Ruby Ridge shooting incident, and David Icke peddling his lizard theory in Canada- these programmes were quite amusing. One of the best sections on TV was Ronson trying to persuade a bunch of Canadian anti-racist campaigners who were preparing to disrupt Icke's Canadian tour, that Icke isn't using 'lizards' as a metaphor for ...
