Out of curiosity: Is this event publicly discussed by those who participate or is it one of those 'hush hush' things?
I ask because if it is hush hush I would be curious as to how a guest list would be obtained.
Next year Bilderberg will be held in Ýstanbul
The Bilderberg forum will be held in Ýstanbul next year. "Bilderberg Conference" gathering politicians, businessmen, managers and journalists to discuss the global military, economic and political issues is evaluated as "semi confidential debate forum" as no announcement was made regarding its content. "Bilderberg Conference" held in Canada this year also had its repercussions in Turkey. Bilderberg group formed in order to debate the common issues and relations between Europe and the USA is held once a year since 1954. Between 40 and120 people participate in the meetings organized to be in May. In Turkey, Istanbul hosted the conference in 1959 and Çeþme hosted the conference in 1975.
If there is any real proof of these meetings, or their intentions, that would be wonderful, but it seems very much like every other NWO conspiracy: contrived in the imagination.

Bilderberg 2007: Agenda and Participant List
This year’s delegation will once again include all of the most important politicians, businessmen, central bankers, European Commissioners and executives of the western corporate press. They will be joined at the table by leading representatives of the European Royalty, led by Queen Beatrix, the daughter of the Bilderberg founder, former Nazi, Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands and Bilderberger President, Etienne Davignon, Vice Chairman, Suez-Tractebel from Belgium.
- Aside from the Iraq quagmire, energy problems continue to dominate Bilderberger discussions. Oil and natural gas are finite, non-renewable resources. That’s because once used up it cannot be replenished. As the world turns, and as oil and natural gas supplies dwindle while demand soars dramatically, especially with Indian and Chinese booming economies who want all the trinkets and privileges of an American way of life, we, as the Planet, have crossed the midpoint of oil production and discovery.
- As the economic impact sinks in, and as the after effects of Peak Oil become evident in the face of breakdown of civilization, the United States will be forced to challenge Europe, Russia and China for the hegemony of control and the ever depleting hydrocarbon, non-renewable reserves most of which are contained in the Middle East. That will be point number two on the Bilderberg 2007 agenda.
- Third item on the agenda is European relations with Russia not only in Europe but also in Central Asia. With Moscow making a deal with Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan over the transport of gas to Europe, the US geo-strategic goal of driving a wedge between the Central Asian countries and Russia lies in shambles.
- Iran war, after two years of huffing and puffing by the Bush government is definitely off the table. Furthermore, with France, Russia, Japan and China investing heavily in Iran, the world has drawn a line in the sand and the U.S. will be told at the conference not to cross it. There is blood in the water, and blood in the water usually leads to a good fight.
