GLOBAL NEWS IS THE BILDERBERG GROUP PLANNING ECONOMIC DEPRESSION? n the eve of the 58th Bilderberg Group conference, which is due to be held on 14-17 May at the five-star Nafsika Astir Palace Hotel in Vouliagmeni, Greece, investigative reporter Daniel Estulin has uncovered details of what the elitists plan to do with the economy over the course of| e next year. According to Estulin's sources, here are a few of the talking points and concerns for this year's meeting. ¢ The future of the US dollar and US economy. The plan is for the Bilderberg Group players, through their allies in Washington and Wall Street, to continue to deceive millions of savers and investors who believe e hype about the supposed up-turn in the economy. They are about to be set up for massive losses and searing financial pain in the months ahead. The bank "stress tests" now being conducted by Washington are little more an a shameless hoax—based on the irrational assumption that the economy won't get as bad as it already is! ¢ US unemployment: solutions and assumptions (stated as such in the pre-meeting booklet sent to attendees). Bilderberg is quietly assuming that US unemployment numbers will hover around 14 per cent by the end of this year, far higher than the official numbers released by the US government. ¢ Depression or prolonged stagnation (stated as such in the pre-meeting booklet). Bilderberg is looking at two options: either a prolonged, agonising depression that dooms the world to decades of stagnation, decline and poverty, or an intense but shorter depression that paves the way for a new sustainable economic world order with less sovereignty but more efficiency. ¢ There will be a final push for the enactment of the Lisbon Treaty, depending on the Irish voting "yes" in September or October. One of their concerns is addressing and neutralising the anti-Lisbon Treaty movement called Libertas, led by Declan Ganley. One of the Bilderbergers'’ planned moves is to use a whispering campaign in the US media to suggest that Ganley is being funded by US arms dealers linked to the US military. Daniel Estulin, Jim Tucker and other sources who have infiltrated Bilderberg meetings in the past have routinely provided information about he Bilderberg agenda that later plays out on the world stage, proving that he organisation is not merely a "talking shop", as debunkers claim, but an integrated planning forum for the New World Order agenda. ndeed, in March, Belgian viscount and current Bilderberg chairman Etienne Davignon bragged that Bilderberg helped create the euro by introducing the policy agenda for a single currency in the early 1990s. Bilderberg's agenda for a European federal superstate and a single currency ikely goes back even further. A BBC investigation has uncovered documents from early Bilderberg meetings which confirm that the European Union was a brainchild of Bilderberg. n 2006, Estulin predicted that the US housing market would be allowed o soar before the bubble was cruelly popped, which is just what transpired. n early 2008, Estulin predicted that Bilderberg was creating conditions for a inancial calamity, later confirmed by the Lehman Brothers collapse. t remains to be seen what kind of mainstream media press coverage Bilderberg 2009 will be afforded because, despite the proven track record of| Bilderberg with its central role in influencing subsequent geopolitical and inancial world events, and despite last year's meeting being held in Washington, DC, the US corporate media oversaw an almost universal blackout of reporting on the 2008 conference, its attendees and what was discussed.

Also buried in the Pentagon's just- released budget documents: ¢ Money for "Directed Energy Technology” jumps from $62.7 million to $105.7 million in 2010. ¢ Cash for "Prompt Global Strike Capability Development"—weapons that can hit anywhere on the planet in just a few hours—jumps from $74.1 million to $166.9 million. In terms of the general defence budget, the cost of fighting the war in Afghanistan will overtake that of the Iraq conflict for the first time in 2010. On top of the basic defence budget of $533.7 billion, the White House is requesting a further $130 billion for overseas missions, including $65 billion for Afghanistan and S61 billion for Iraq.

Jones and Niels Harrit level a stark allegation: that samples of the dust and rubble from the World Trade Center towers show evidence of "a highly engineered explosive", contrary to all federal studies of the collapses. They claim their analysis has uncovered "active thermitic material". "This finding really goes beyond anything that has previously been shown," said Jones in a media advisory. "We had to use sophisticated tools to analyze the dust because this isn't just a typical explosive, RDX or CD4 or something: this is a highly engineered material not readily available to just anyone."
