The Shadow Government
Shadow government is a group of conspiracy theories. The theories are based on the belief that actual and real political power not with the political leaders elected by the public but with some private people who will be exercising power without the knowledge of the people. The paper is going to discuss the Bilderberg group conspiracy which are annual forum invitations for “Informal discussions” by the industry leaders from Europe and North America concerning “Megatrends” and other important issues concerning the world. The meeting was started in 1954 by Prince Bernhard from the Netherlands.
Since the start of the meeting in 1954, many people have been so suspicious about Bilderberg. The meeting was seen to be taking place where the New World Order transacts its business. The attracts paranoia of conspiracy theorists who claim that an extensive collection of people spend a lot of time talking about how to enslave the world. The Bilderberg has links to different groups like the Illuminati and the Freemasons. It is therefore full of madness.
The main topics of discussions include megatrends and the major issues facing the world. In the meeting held the previous year, they discussed artificial intelligence, the threats of chemical weapons, cybersecurity, Greece, Iran, NATO, Russia, terrorism, and the Us elections. Of the most concern is that the meeting is so private that the people who take part in the conference do not need to worry about the depletion of particular policies or the party lines as they can explore various scenarios and say what they think, Jeffers, (2009).
In the previous year, top politicians from different countries took part in the meeting. The politicians were able to chat with each other and also with Google. It makes people wonder what top politicians could be talking about without the knowledge of their respective countries. It merely means that they have a hidden agenda on what they are planning to do to the world. Furthermore, the secretive meetings could not be of goodwill to the world as anything good is done publicly.
The common interest is the pillar supporting the participants in Bilderberg. There have been accusations that most of these people have an interest in politics. For conciseness, the group pushes its members into high political offices. For instance, Bill Clinton attended the meeting in 1991 when she was still the governor of Arkansas. The selection process for the participants in the Bilderberg is selective, taking only on those people who have an interest in the business.
To make the matter dangerous, any inquiries are met with a female voice always. The sound still recites the numbers calling and finally asks the caller to leave a message after the view. It is also a point of concern as in a meeting for the prominent people; there must be a person in charge of the phone calls. For a fact, these business people receive some private calls which they can not allow other people to accept their requests. It, therefore, leaves us with questions about what type of business people are not in charge of their phones. An essential reason as to why these people are afraid of calls is that they know they will be asked to respond to some messages which might reveal their privacy. It is not logic that a company will lack people to be in charge of the calls even when the owners are having a meeting.
Another point of concern is, what makes Bilderberg different from the other powerful get-togethers? We have the World Economic Forum (WEF) where what is discussed within the meeting is aired out to the public. In contrary, in the Bilderberg meetings, there is no journalist who is invited. Furthermore, in the course of the meeting, very confidential minutes of the conference are taken, but no names are noted.
Bilderberg does not have a website. We cannot understand how a large group, which includes renown people like Henry Kissinger and Kenneth Clarke, who was the chancellor of the UK can lack a website where they publish their daily events. Such a reason gives us a point to think of the conspiracy theory concerning Bilderberg. In short, the group does not have an idea to develop a website because, after all, whatever they do is to be kept secret from the world.
It is believed that Bilderberg triggered the Slobodan Milosevic war. The war led to the collapse of this state and furthermore, world terrorists like Osama bin Laden believe that Bilderberg has a take in how the powerful governments are run. For instance, if even the terrorists can think negatively of a particular group, who are we not to have negative thoughts about the same group? Mr. Gosling from Bristol is one of the activists running a campaign against Bilderberg. Such activists don’t just wake up from nowhere to start going against a group they lack full information. It therefore means such people have done their research and from it they came up with a reason to castigate the group, Richardson, Kakabadse, & Kakabadse, (2013).
Mr. Gosling gave a revelation of the connection between Bilderberg and war. He said, “One of the first places I heard about the determination of the US forces to attack Iraq was from leaks that came out of the Bilderberg meeting in 2002.” It is believed that Bilderberg wanted to form a world government that knows no boundary, which was a revelation by Fidel Castro. The aim of coming up with such a government is to enable the group to have a controlling power over the world. The reason why most of the meetings by the group are secretive is to fulfill their negative thought concerning the world, Richardson (2013).
Lastly, the US Republican Party is controlled by Bilderberg. It was revealed by a political activist Phyllis Schlafly. The claims further indicate that the Republican was being manipulated by Bilderberg to form communism. The founder of this group was a member of the Nazis, but he denied the claims in one of the interviews. We must, therefore, have a conspiracy concerning the group because there are so many renown groups in the world that usually have meetings, but later the world is briefed on what the meeting was all about. For instance, the World Economic Forum is a platform whereby all the meetings held are made public.
In conclusion, Bilderberg is a group which is illegitimate. They are trying to come up with a way in which they can colonize the whole world and run everything. There is no way a renown group with influential people in the world can keep their meetings and everything they do so secrete that little is known about it. Finally, the group is also believed to be funding some people to join politics and to influence how politics of the world are done.
