Rulers of the world

Ever wondered who decided things in the world? Is it President Bush given his status as head of the world's only superpower? Wrong!!

It is actually 'The Bilderberg Group' that rules the world. The first time I heard about this on CNN, I was amused. This group, I believe has been in existence for the last 50 or more years and they have been meeting every year. Membership to this group is only by 'invitation'. The 120 odd members who meet every year are usually the most powerful people from the US and Europe and has included Alan Greenspan, Henry Kissinger, Pres. Bush, Pres. Clinton, Tony Blair, Melinda Gates . They meet once a year and no one really knows when and where the meetings happen every year. The meeting is 'secured' tightly and no official response is ever made out.

There is already a Wiki entry for this group. This year, the conference is expected to happen in Munich this weekend. But then no one really knows.

It is interesting that such a powerful group of people are part of an organization like this and yet this has been kept down with such a low profile. That says a lot of the clout of the organization. I wouldnt be surprised if a lot of the important decisions impacting the world had their genesis here. By the way, no Asians or Africans allowed. It's only for the Western world.

Some interesting links about the Group are in this page:

Almost sounds like the 'Da Vinci Code' and its secret society...:-)
