1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:11,599 15 Things You Didn't Know About the Bilderberg Group 2 00:00:11,599 --> 00:00:20,120 Welcome to ALUX.com, the place where future billionaires come to get inspired. 3 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,000 Hello Aluxers and welcome back to another amazing video. 4 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:28,480 Today we're finding out more about the so-called New World Order, the Bilderberg... 5 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:32,439 The Bilderberg is shrouded in mystery with some believing that it's a secret satanic 6 00:00:32,439 --> 00:00:37,480 society and others doubting it's more than an annual golfing holiday. 7 00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:42,200 The group is an annual private conference of the political elite and some of the richest 8 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,480 people in finance, industry and the media. 9 00:00:45,480 --> 00:00:50,640 Many former presidents and political leaders have been in attendance at their annual... 10 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:56,299 It was established in 1954 to bring Europe and America together, supposedly, but some 11 00:00:56,299 --> 00:01:01,419 think it's much more sinister than dinner and a few cigars between friends. 12 00:01:01,419 --> 00:01:05,379 Because ALUX.com is dedicated to becoming the world's best resource on the world's 13 00:01:05,379 --> 00:01:09,739 most successful and influential business people, we had to look at one of the most 14 00:01:09,739 --> 00:01:12,819 notorious secret societies in the world. 15 00:01:12,819 --> 00:01:17,420 Here are 15 things you didn't know about the Bilderberg Group. 16 00:01:17,420 --> 00:01:19,900 1. 17 00:01:19,900 --> 00:01:26,900 The current chairman of the group is the French CEO of AXA, Henri de la... 18 00:01:26,900 --> 00:01:31,820 French businessman Henri de la Croix-Castries is from a military family and now the CEO 19 00:01:31,820 --> 00:01:35,140 of multinational insurance firm AXA. 20 00:01:35,140 --> 00:01:39,840 He took over from the previous Belgian chairman who died in 2011. 21 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:43,520 Previous chairman have all been significant members of their country's parliament or 22 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,140 had significant business interests. 23 00:01:46,140 --> 00:01:50,799 The very first chairman was Prince Consort of the Netherlands and Commander in Chief 24 00:01:50,799 --> 00:01:55,340 of the Armed Forces of the Netherlands, so it's clear that you need to be a serious 25 00:01:55,340 --> 00:01:59,980 big hitter if you want to chair the Bilderberg meetings. 26 00:01:59,980 --> 00:02:02,260 2. 27 00:02:02,260 --> 00:02:06,980 The Bilderberg Group released the agenda for their meetings, but that's about it. 28 00:02:06,980 --> 00:02:11,500 The group follows the Chatham House Rule, meaning that the information discussed can 29 00:02:11,500 --> 00:02:14,800 be mentioned outside of the meeting, but not the speaker. 30 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:20,360 Their agendas are always published on their website, but contain such huge broad topics 31 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,719 it's very hard to glean any information from it. 32 00:02:23,719 --> 00:02:31,040 The 2016 meeting in Dresden involved the discussion of Russia, cyber security and... 33 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,800 All very large topics for just a weekend. 34 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,120 3. 35 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:41,760 British journalist John Ronson entered the Bilderberg Group and filmed their activity 36 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,680 in 2001. 37 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:48,080 As a part of a documentary series, British journalist John Ronson enlisted the help 38 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:53,599 of prolific American radio host Alex Jones to infiltrate the famous global elite at 39 00:02:53,599 --> 00:02:58,599 their retreat in Bohemian Grove, California, which has a guest list that overlaps with 40 00:02:58,599 --> 00:03:00,360 the Bilderberg Group. 41 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,840 When he filmed it, he found a bizarre staged occult ceremony involving the wearing of 42 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,240 robes and the burning of a giant owl effigy. 43 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:13,340 As sinister as it looked, Ronson went on to describe it as ultimately harmless, just like 44 00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:15,500 any extravagant school play. 45 00:03:17,500 --> 00:03:18,939 4. 46 00:03:18,939 --> 00:03:24,379 A British political delegate was turned away for not wearing his ID badge. 47 00:03:24,379 --> 00:03:28,939 Security is taken extremely seriously at the Bilderberg Group conference and the... 48 00:03:28,939 --> 00:03:34,300 town of choice is put into lockdown by local police and journalists have been arrested 49 00:03:34,300 --> 00:03:36,500 for trying to infiltrate it. 50 00:03:36,500 --> 00:03:42,140 British politician Ed Balz found himself turned away from the 2016 conference too w... 51 00:03:42,139 --> 00:03:46,579 couldn't find his ID and security refused to accept his passport. 52 00:03:46,579 --> 00:03:52,859 Alex Jones's Infowars caught the whole thing on camera, much to Balz's embarrassment. 53 00:03:52,859 --> 00:03:55,739 5. 54 00:03:55,739 --> 00:04:01,779 When the 2013 conference was hosted near London, the delegates were met with... 55 00:04:01,779 --> 00:04:06,179 There were roadblocks and blacked out windows, but that didn't stop a group of... 56 00:04:06,179 --> 00:04:09,659 from gathering outside the Grove Hotel in Hertfordshire. 57 00:04:10,180 --> 00:04:12,139 6. 58 00:04:12,139 --> 00:04:16,540 The Bilderberg Group did not want Donald Trump to win the presidential election. 59 00:04:16,540 --> 00:04:21,219 Hillary Clinton herself has never been a Bilderberg delegate, but her husband and m... 60 00:04:21,219 --> 00:04:23,219 advisors have. 61 00:04:23,219 --> 00:04:27,219 In 2015, the US election was one of the most important in the history of the country. 62 00:04:27,219 --> 00:04:17,339 The 63 00:04:27,339 --> 00:04:29,339 6. 64 00:04:29,339 --> 00:04:33,339 The Bilderberg Group did not want Donald Trump to win the presidential election. 65 00:04:33,339 --> 00:04:38,339 Hillary Clinton herself has never been a Bilderberg delegate, but her husband and m... 66 00:04:39,019 --> 00:04:40,019 7. 67 00:04:40,019 --> 00:05:06,500 The group is cited as the way presidents and prime ministers are chosen. 68 00:05:06,660 --> 00:05:11,379 Clinton first attended the conference in 1991 and became the US president just a year 69 00:05:11,379 --> 00:05:12,379 later. 70 00:05:12,379 --> 00:05:16,899 Tony Blair was also fairly insignificant in his own political party when he was invited 71 00:05:16,899 --> 00:05:18,579 in 1993. 72 00:05:18,579 --> 00:05:23,000 By 1997, his election was being celebrated in the UK. 73 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:27,540 Every year the delegates include a few political figures who may not be well know... 74 00:05:27,540 --> 00:05:31,420 they're about to become very famous indeed. 75 00:05:31,420 --> 00:05:33,740 8. 76 00:05:33,740 --> 00:05:39,259 One theory claims that the group planned to increase oil prices in 1973. 77 00:05:39,259 --> 00:05:45,100 According to Infowars, who love a good Bilderberg conspiracy theory, Bilderberg h... 78 00:05:45,100 --> 00:05:47,699 say in international oil prices. 79 00:05:47,699 --> 00:05:52,379 Many of the delegates represent major oil companies such as Shell and BP, so it's 80 00:05:52,379 --> 00:05:54,579 an easy assumption to make. 81 00:05:54,579 --> 00:05:58,780 According to leaked minutes at the meeting, though the group have insisted they don't 82 00:05:59,779 --> 00:06:05,779 The group discussed increasing oil prices by 400% to manage the incoming increase in 83 00:06:05,779 --> 00:06:07,779 oil dollars. 84 00:06:07,779 --> 00:06:10,779 9. 85 00:06:10,779 --> 00:06:16,419 In 1955, the group wanted to merge the United States, Canada and Mexico. 86 00:06:16,419 --> 00:06:20,779 Leaked transcripts have shown that the Bilderbergs have openly discussed how they... 87 00:06:20,779 --> 00:06:26,579 the merging of the United States, Canada and Mexico to create a North American Union. 88 00:06:26,579 --> 00:06:31,300 The group are pro-America and pro-Europe, so anything that combines them or brings 89 00:06:31,300 --> 00:06:36,659 them together is greatly encouraged, and they're particularly keen on the euro. 90 00:06:36,659 --> 00:06:39,339 Want to know about another extremely powerful group? 91 00:06:39,339 --> 00:06:42,939 Check out our video about the Rothschilds. 92 00:06:42,939 --> 00:06:45,379 10. 93 00:06:45,379 --> 00:06:50,339 David Rockefeller has openly admitted that he is a part of a secret cabal. 94 00:06:50,339 --> 00:06:55,379 The famous John D. Rockefeller's grandson was 101 years old and the first billionaire 95 00:06:55,379 --> 00:06:57,779 in the world to live for a whole century. 96 00:06:57,779 --> 00:07:02,339 He of course continued to run the various lucrative family businesses, and this has 97 00:07:02,339 --> 00:07:06,579 ensured his place around the Bilderberg group meeting table. 98 00:07:06,579 --> 00:07:10,779 Unlike many other members who have been a bit more guarded and secretive, Rockefeller 99 00:07:10,779 --> 00:07:15,019 was asked if he was a part of a secret New World Order and responded with, 100 00:07:15,019 --> 00:07:22,980 11. 101 00:07:22,980 --> 00:07:28,900 The Bilderbergs' former chairman has categorically denied that the group is... 102 00:07:28,900 --> 00:07:33,819 Former chairman Viscount Davignon, who sounds like a bit of a Bond villain, went on the 103 00:07:33,819 --> 00:07:39,000 record in 2005 to say that if we were a secret government of the world, we should ... 104 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:40,900 ashamed of ourselves. 105 00:07:40,900 --> 00:07:46,340 The Viscount was also quick to deny that the group talent spots future political leaders, 106 00:07:46,340 --> 00:07:51,180 saying that if they go places, it's not because of Bilderberg, it's because of... 107 00:07:51,180 --> 00:07:56,060 Regardless of what he or any other chairman says, Bilderberg will always have its very 108 00:07:56,060 --> 00:07:58,579 vocal critics. 109 00:07:58,579 --> 00:08:01,699 12. 110 00:08:01,699 --> 00:08:08,220 Bilderberg attacker Alex Jones was once detained at Ottawa Airport prior to a... 111 00:08:08,220 --> 00:08:13,860 The Bilderbergs' most famous adversary and critic Alex Jones has tried to film at and 112 00:08:13,860 --> 00:08:17,100 disrupt most meetings for the last 10 years. 113 00:08:17,100 --> 00:08:22,420 When he arrived in Ottawa for the 2006 conference, though, he found himself detai... 114 00:08:22,420 --> 00:08:28,180 security and was only released after four hours, with just one change of clothes. 115 00:08:28,180 --> 00:08:31,740 The rest of his luggage and recording equipment seized. 116 00:08:31,740 --> 00:08:35,779 It could, of course, have been completely unrelated to the Bilderberg conference, but 117 00:08:35,779 --> 00:08:39,940 it added a lot of fuel to Jones' fire. 118 00:08:39,940 --> 00:08:42,660 13. 119 00:08:42,659 --> 00:08:48,379 Group members are greeted at the airport by limo drivers holding a simple B sign. 120 00:08:48,379 --> 00:08:53,579 Henry Kissinger, Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands and the world's richest CEOs, ... 121 00:08:53,579 --> 00:08:58,139 with a very subtle welcoming party when they arrive at the airport for their conference. 122 00:08:58,139 --> 00:09:04,459 In 2006, the drivers sent to pick up delegates at the airport held discreet and... 123 00:09:04,459 --> 00:09:06,699 signs to welcome them. 124 00:09:06,699 --> 00:09:10,860 Reporters at the scene supposedly got photos of the signs, but all traces seem to have 125 00:09:10,860 --> 00:09:13,899 been wiped from the internet. 126 00:09:13,899 --> 00:09:15,259 14. 127 00:09:15,259 --> 00:09:21,019 Apparently, the group broke Margaret Thatcher's career. 128 00:09:21,019 --> 00:09:25,220 Politicians who get on well with the Bilderberg group are rumored to be the... 129 00:09:25,220 --> 00:09:29,060 and one famous prime minister made an extra special impression. 130 00:09:29,060 --> 00:09:34,659 Margaret Thatcher is reported to have attended the 1975 Bilderberg conference an... 131 00:09:34,659 --> 00:09:37,340 into a three-minute Thatcher special. 132 00:09:37,420 --> 00:09:41,740 After listening to all the discussion in silence for two days, the American delegates 133 00:09:41,740 --> 00:09:47,259 fell in love with her, according to former Bilderberg organizer Dennis Hewley. 134 00:09:47,259 --> 00:09:49,740 15. 135 00:09:49,740 --> 00:09:54,420 A journalist resigned from the Washington Post specifically to investigate the... 136 00:09:54,420 --> 00:09:55,740 group. 137 00:09:55,740 --> 00:10:00,220 Once a sports reporter for the Washington Post, Jim Tucker was so fascinated by the 138 00:10:00,220 --> 00:10:06,280 famous group that he resigned from his full-time job in 1975 to put all of his... 139 00:10:06,279 --> 00:10:07,879 investigating them. 140 00:10:07,879 --> 00:10:13,279 He went on to write Jim Tucker's Bilderberg diaries and broke numerous stories exposing 141 00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:15,120 Bilderberg attendees. 142 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:19,699 His story of Thatcher's involvement differs greatly from Dennis Hewley's account,... 143 00:10:19,699 --> 00:10:24,879 that she didn't like the one meeting she attended and was replaced on the guest list 144 00:10:24,879 --> 00:10:26,199 a year after. 145 00:10:26,199 --> 00:10:29,559 16. 146 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:34,639 This secretive organization is more than just a collection of elaborate conspiracy... 147 00:10:34,639 --> 00:10:38,639 Some believe they really are the New World Order, pulling the strings of the world's 148 00:10:38,639 --> 00:10:41,120 governments, banks and businesses. 149 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:45,039 Others go one step further and think they are devil worshippers or they get their orders 150 00:10:45,039 --> 00:10:46,679 from a higher power. 151 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,919 Whichever it is, it's not hard to imagine that a group of immensely wealthy people 152 00:10:50,919 --> 00:10:55,039 are quite powerful when they get together in a room. 153 00:10:55,039 --> 00:10:59,659 Would you rather infiltrate the Bilderberg group and risk their security people's wrath? 154 00:10:59,659 --> 00:11:05,459 Or would you much prefer to be a legitimate delegate sitting around the table? 155 00:11:05,459 --> 00:11:12,100 Oh, you're still here? 156 00:11:12,100 --> 00:11:15,579 Well, here's another amazing fact about the Bilderberg group. 157 00:11:15,579 --> 00:11:19,779 It's been rumored that one of their biggest goals is to establish a society with two 158 00:11:19,779 --> 00:11:23,860 distinct classes – rulers and serfs. 159 00:11:23,860 --> 00:11:27,740 No prizes for guessing which category the delegates will fall into. 160 00:11:27,820 --> 00:11:32,139 There are many assumptions made about what the group wants to achieve with their... 161 00:11:32,139 --> 00:11:38,120 but the most sinister involve creating a global welfare state, a world military and... 162 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,259 control of education. 163 00:11:40,259 -->
