Annual Meeting of the Elite

The Bilderberg Group, Bilderberg conference,
Bilderberg meetings or Bilderberg Club is an
annual private conference of 120 to 150 people of
the European and North American political elite,
experts from industry, finance, academia, and the media, established in 1954.
A rose by any other name….
It seems the tradition has far deeper
roots. What we have come to understand about the
meetings of the elite today – such as meetings of
the Bilderberg Group – cannot be distinguished
from similar gatherings held over 1000 years ago….
Struggle for Empire: Kingship and Conflict Under
Louis the German, 817 – 876, by Eric J. Goldberg.
The royal assembly was the truest manifestation
of the kingdom, since it instilled the nobles
with the sense that they were members of a
community of the realm with the king at their head.
This assembly included nobles from all corners of
Louis’ kingdom. Depending on his favor with his
father, Louis the Pious, and his own military
reach, Louis’ kingdom at times included Bavaria,
Alemannia, Franconia, Thuringia, and Saxony.
There were ethnic components to the eastern
provinces, since their inhabitants spoke
different Germanic dialects and had their own
written law codes and distinctive social and legal customs.
Each region had its own unique cultural
characteristics; this mattered little to the
nobles who lorded over the people. The nobles
from these provinces considered themselves as
separate from those they ruled, shedding their
cultural connections to the uniqueness of their
homes; they were members of a different community – not Saxon, not Bavarian:
By the ninth century, most of the leading
families of the eastern regna considered
themselves Franks, either because they were
Frankish transplants to the east or because their
ancestors had married into Frankish families.
The nobles were more connected to the culture of
the western realm – supposedly more
sophisticated, more civil. The nobles were more
connected to each other than to their homeland.

This noble connection across regions and the
noble separation from those over whom they ruled
came most forcefully to a head in what is known
as the Stellinga rebellion. The Saxon peasants –
taking advantage of Louis’ distractions of
empire, rebelled against their lords.
The primary cause was religious: while the
peasants wished to continue in their traditional
worship, their lords embraced
Christianity. Louis’ grandfather Charlemagne had
ordered the conversion to Christianity under penalty of death:
While the Saxon nobles embraced Christianity
quite willingly, the frilingi and lazzi
associated the new religion with Frankish oppression.
In addition to the desire to cling to their
traditional faith, the peasants feared this
acceptance of Christianity would lead to a
further loss of numerous other civil features of
their culture – including their role in the governance of the tribe.
The peasants held a governing role – prominent
considering their station – in the annual council
at Marklo, on the Weser River. At this council,
they confirmed their laws, pronounced judgment on
outstanding cases, and made decisions about
war. They participated in all of these
discussions and decisions, alongside the nobility.
This annual council was also a religious event,
including prayers to their gods to offer wisdom
in their decisions; therefore Christianity was
seen as a threat to the peasants’ role in governance.
In any case, in the end, Louis crushed the Saxon peasant rebellion.
Returning to the gathering of the elite, Louis
would announce the date of the assembly in
advance. He would specify the royal officials
that were to attend – talk about wanting to get
into the “in” crowd” and remaining politically
correct; you really had to stay in Louis’
favor. It was the great social and political event of the year.
The king, queen and royal family would wear their
most resplendent royal attire; the palace would
be decorated with the best tapestries and
ornaments, conveying the king’s wealth. The assembly was extremely costly…
… [requiring] the king to provide housing, food,
drink, entertainment, and probably gifts for
hundreds of attending nobles and dignitaries.
But this was not merely a lavish house party.
At the assembly, the king and his nobles
reaffirmed their social ties and shared
aristocratic culture: they exchanged gifts,
hunted, attended Mass, formed marriage alliances, and the like.
So much for the social; what about the political?
The king and magnates discussed all pressing
issues confronting the kingdom: treaties,
alliances, military campaigns, local politics,
aristocratic conflicts, and the like. The king
distributed patronage to his supporters,
admonished public officials to carry out their
duties, received foreign ambassadors and tribute,
and planned future treaties and military campaigns.
The royal assembly also functioned as the highest court of law in the kingdom.
No peasants allowed….
Conclusion
Can you distinguish this annual gathering from
what we have come to believe of events like
Bilderberg and the actors that make up today’s global elite? I cannot.
Except that we don’t call them kings and nobles anymore. That’s it, I guess.

Fear not therefore: for there is nothing covered
that shall not be revealed; and nothing hid that
shall not be made known. What I tell you in
darkness, that speak ye in the light and what ye
hear in the ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. Matthew 10:26-27
Die Pride and Envie; Flesh, take the poor's advice.
Covetousnesse be gon: Come, Truth and Love arise.
Patience take the Crown; throw Anger out of dores:
Cast out Hypocrisie and Lust, which follows whores:
Then England sit in rest; Thy sorrows will have end;
Thy Sons will live in peace, and each will be a friend.

Please consider seriously the reason why these elite institutions are not discussed in the mainstream press despite the immense financial and political power they wield?
There are sick and evil occultists running the Western World. They are power mad lunatics like something from a kids cartoon with their fingers on the nuclear button! Armageddon is closer than you thought. Only God can save our souls from their clutches, at least that's my considered opinion - Tony
