NLD: Queen Beatrix of Holland.
Looks like the wife of the founder of the bilderberg group is there as well (as always), bein Dutch, I always wondered what her roll in the group is.

At the moment - the most important name on the list is THIS ONE -

USA "Johnson, James A." "Vice Chairman, Perseus, LLC"
Obama's man tasked with selecting his running mate

hmmmmmmmm - 'MR Change' - eh???
Looks like the same ol' same ol' to me.

I'm not too familiar with how campaigns choose VPs. I thought Obama himself would pick it? or is Mr. Johnson just responsible for showing Obama who to pick, thus keeping a close eye on Obama's perception? Or does Mr. Johnson ACTUALLY pick himself?

I guess I posted too soon. In addition to Rice, The USA is also sending the following:

USA "Alexander, Keith B." "Director, National Security Agency"

USA "Paulson, Jr., Henry M." Secretary of the Treasury

USA "Bernanke, Ben S." "Chairman, Board of Governors, Federal Reserve System"

"Rockefeller, David " "Former Chairman, Chase Manhattan Bank"


USA "Daschle, Thomas A." Former US Senator and Senate Majority Leader

USA "Feldstein, Martin S." "President and CEO, National Bureau of Economic Research"


USA "Ford, Jr., Harold E." "Vice Chairman, Merill Lynch & Co., Inc."

USA "Geithner, Timothy F. " "President and CEO, Federal Reserve Bank of New York"

USA "Gigot, Paul " "Editorial Page Editor, The Wall Street Journal"

USA "Graham, Donald E." "Chairman and CEO, The Washington Post Company"

USA "Holbrooke, Richard C. " "Vice Chairman, Perseus, LLC"

Kissenger (needs no further explination)

USA "Rose, Charlie" "Producer, Rose Communications

USA "Wolfensohn, James D. " "Chairman, Wolfensohn & Company, LLC"

USA "Wolfowitz, Paul " "Visiting Scholar, American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research"

And others ............................

It truly looks like the common denominator here amongst most of the individuals, is government, finance and media, at least as far as the USA's attendees are concerned. (Wow, kinda sounds like some of the "conspiracy theories I have heard) I invite users worldwide to do some searches on the agendas of the individuals within their own countries, and post them back here. One thing I found interesting is the Charlie rose thing, because I recall the interview with Kissenger. Also, the additional agencies here in the US, or at least their directors, are there at the meeting. There are pieces of a puzzle to put together here, and those that are smart will realize that it's not about "waking up" everybody. As I have stated before, there is something on the table here that is bigger than each and every one of us. This is truly a spiritual thing, however you want to interpret that. I

On another note, it truly bothers me that there are no attendees regarding industry from the USA. I realize the industrial change through NAFTA, and other trade agreements, but I ask the question, What have we become?
Peace.

Who is he?

Flemming Rose is the editor of Jyllands Posten who initiated the infamous prophet cartoons.

Cheers for that one Khuun, dunno how I missed him
Kinda makes you think, eh?
If anything came from posting those cartoons, it wasn't only freedom of speech, but it also brought a whole LOT of attention to religious fanaticism in the middleeast. It kept us scared and in a way made it alright that the allies were parading around over there crushing societies.

The war was created by TBG.

Had a quick look at the British list.

Predictably the only two british MPs are conservatives so we'll probably be under their tyranny soon

Posting the cartoon ONCE was freedom of speech, posting it repeatedly was looking to cause offence.

DNK "Rose, Flemming" "Editor, Jyllands Posten"

It's the editor of the Danish paper which posted the drawings of the prophet Muhammed twice over the past few years :S

Because twice was to incite hatred and cause offence. He had his free speech when he printed it once. He continued to print it because he KNEW it would cause offence and that was his intention.

This one is sort of interesting. Why was "Call me Harold" tapped to go? He only recently entered the business world from politics. He is not a power player yet.

Interesting, Harold Ford Jr. the "Prince of Memphis" is considered the next Obama. His family has been involved/manipulating politics in Memphis for more than a hundred years.

Does anyone have a theory why the governor of South Carolina is there? It seems very out of place from everyone else on this list.

He is the guy who ushers John McCain in silently. (*2nd edit* John McCain's website has him in D.C. and 15 miles from Chantilly tomorrow) He is one of of the potential Vice Presidential candidates McC is choosing from so... I'll bet he won't be seeking re-election in South Carolina.
