Marc,
Critics of the Bilderberg say that the secret group:
•perceives itself as being supra-governmental;
•manipulates global finances and establishes rigid and binding monetary rates around the world;
•selects political figures whom the Bilderberg decrees should become rulers, and targets those whom it wants removed from power;

Also Professor Richard Aldridge of Nottingham University in his book 'Hidden Hand' (2001), writes in Chapter 16 (it's mostly about the European Movement and its CIA funding): 'It is clear that the Rome Treaty was nurtured by discussions at Bilderberg in the preceding year' (year before the 1956 Treaty).
The Bilderberg Group was created, according to Aldridge, by Retinger, McCloy, Allen Dulles Vice Chairman of the American Committee on a United Europe (front for CIA), Harriman, David Rockefeller, Jackson and General Walter Bedell Smith (close aid of Eisenhower). Prince Bernhard was of course the first Bildeberg Chairman.
It is noteworthy that Bedell Smith was in close contact with Prince Berhard (whose unsavoury past - see previous article I sent - are well known) during the period that Montgomery was drawing up his initial plan to capture the Dutch bridges leading to Arnhem.
We should also note the paragraphs from the article by David Guyatt (THE SHAPE OF TREACHERY AND THE BRIDGE AT ARNHEM which you have already seen), where he writes: 'By coincidence, [with the British airborne landings at Arnhem] too, it was on 4th September that Field Marshal Model directed Lt General Bittrich's badly mauled but veteran II SS Panzer corps to bivouac in the Arnhem area to refit and rest. Bittrich later stated that "there was no particular significance in Model choosing the Arnhem vicinityexcept that it was a peaceful area where nothing was happening'.
'Now, in hindsight, armed with the knowledge of Bormann's vital need for a full nine months for his capital flight program [see article] to reach fulfilment, one wonders if other, more subterranean, factors influenced Model's decision. Was treachery involved'?
Also of interest, Lord Carrington, previously Major Peter Smith, (who halted his Grenadier Guard's tanks for the night, at a vital moment, just after having crossed the Nijmegen Bridge, captured a high cost to the American 504th Regiment, when all speed was required to cover the remaining eight miles to Arnhem and relief of Col Frost and his men before they were overwhelmed, as they were) also had a stint in, 1983 (after he resigned in the proceeding year as Foreign Secretary over Foreign Office failure over the Argentine invasion of the Falklands) as Chairman of the Bilderberg Group. Failure seems to have its rewards!.
The interplay of these characters is all very intriguing and needs more research.
I am not saying, Marc, that any of this should form part of campaigning (credulity would be stretched to its limits with most people), but opinion formers should, I think, be aware of the 'unhealthy' provenance of our EU membership. An EU which continues to this day as a corrupt and unaccountable outfit for a certain bunch to enrich themselves. db
