What Is Bilderberg?

he Bilderberg group is an organization of political

leaders and international financiers that meets

secretly every spring to make global policy. There

are about 110 regulars—Rockefellers, Rothschilds,

bankers, heads of international corporations and

high government officials from Europe and North

America. Each year, a few new people are invited and, if found use-

ful, they return to future meetings. If not, they are discarded.

Decisions reached at these secret meetings affect every American

and much of the world.

that calls itself Bilderberg and the efforts of one courageous

reporter—James P. Tucker Jr., who has been trailing Bilderberg for

Bilderberg:

Its Long & Secret History

The roots of Bilderberg go back centuries, when international

moneychangers would secretly manipulate the economy to enrich

themselves and enslave ordinary people.

The Rothschilds of Britain and Europe have met secretly with

other financiers for centuries, as did the Rockefellers of America.

“Rye Fields” because of their crops.

One of the most significant such meetings took place in the

spring of 1908, led by Sen. Nelson Aldrich of Rhode Island, whose

family married into the Rockefeller clan, accounting for the late

Gov. Nelson Aldrich Rockefeller’s given name. It was held on Jekyll

Island off the Georgia coast.

But in 1954, the international financiers decided that the world

They have met behind sealed-off walls and armed guards at

plush resorts ever since. Secrecy prevailed briefly, until the late

Pegler devoted two of his nationally syndicated columns to

Bilderberg in April 1957, although he did not know the group’s

name. (See Appendix 2, page 231.)

the hotel that hosted the first Bilderberg meeting all the way back in 1954.

Bilderberg meetings have been held every year since then, with the venue sites

getting more lavish every year. Bilderberg has at times taken to meeting on

islands, ostensibly because it’s easier to keep reporters and photographers away

so no one can document those participants who attend.

popular press beyond a little, routine AP story,” Pegler wrote.

Pegler reported that Ralph McGill, the late editor of The Atlanta

Constitution and Arthur Hayes Sulzberger, publisher of The New

York Times , had attended on their promise of secrecy. Since, the

publisher and associate editor of The Washington Post, Donald

Graham and Jimmy Lee Hoagland, respectively, have been regular

participants.Allnetworknewschannelshaveattendedthesemeet-

blackout.

The blackout is virtually complete in the United States. When

giant newspapers and broadcast outlets say they do not want the

word “Bilderberg” to appear, the pressure on Associated Press is

obvious; they are the biggest customers, paying far more than a

small-circulation local paper.

Small-city papers depend on AP for all out-of-town news, even

for their state legislative coverage. They run hard to stay ahead of

the city council and high school football team. Unless informed

directly, they have no knowledge that Bilderberg exists.

While Bilderberg denies its meetings are significant, the record

More recently, while the mainstream media in 2002 was assert-

fall, American Free Press reported that there would be no aggres-

sion until 2003. The war began in March 2003.

Bilderberg:

Conspiracy ‘Theory’ or Fact?

When international financiers, heads of state and high govern-

ment officials are exposed conducting public business in secret,

they whimper about “conspiracy theories.” But I will soon provide

you with names and telephone numbers you can check yourself.

Challenge these Bilderberg conspirators to deny that:

• They meet at a secret location each spring, normally in late

Preface: What Is Bilderberg? 5

May or early June. Their exclusive resort will be sealed off at high

noon on the Wednesday before Bilderberg starts meeting on

Thursday through Sunday. The resort will be emptied of all non-

Bilderberg people. Armed guards will seal off the resort to prevent

anyone from approaching.

•AllBilderbergparticipantsandtheirstaffpeople,aswellasall

oftheresortpersonnel,aresworntosecrecy.Theywillreportnoth-

ing. Collaborating newspapers, including The Washington Post, The

New York Times and Los Angeles Times, will report nothing. They

keep their vows of silence so fervently they allow their own news-

papers to be factually wrong rather than risk exposing Bilderberg.

Participants will deny that Bilderberg even exists. You will almost

national network news, which have all participated in vows of

secrecy. (Because of extensive coverage in Europe in recent years,

The New York Times published a “humor” commentary after the

2004 meeting in Stresa, Italy, denouncing “conspiracy” theories.)

Chasing Bilderberg for 28 years has been the most exciting

assignment of my lifetime newspaper career, the first 20 years of

which were in the mainstream press. I had held some high posi-

tions—night editor of the now defunct Washington Daily News, edi-

tor of the Martinsville (VA) Bulletin, copy editor at the Richmond

(VA) Times-Dispatch and, finally, assistant news editor of the Akron

(Ohio) Beacon-Journal.

So a moment that came in the spring of 1975 is forever pho-

tographed in my mind. I was being interviewed by Willis Carto for

officially “treasurer” of Liberty Lobby but he was more than that.

He was Liberty Lobby, having founded the populist institution in

1955.

He asked me what I thought of Bilderberg. I had never heard of

Bilderberg. He gave me a brief oral summary and a lot of Liberty
