Happyclown Inc. agent from Oxford, UK wrote an article end of June 5 days prior
to the meeting see http://www.tlio.demon.co.uk/bilder.htm which is proved
correct in this reuter report... only thing missing from reuter though is
analysis which criticises the Bilderberg group for leaving Third world debt and
global trade in weapons off the agenda... there is also the tiny item of a
strata of power above democratic western governments that we are not allowed to
know about!

13Jun97 USA: BILDERBERG MEETING OF 1997 ASSEMBLES.
:: This press release is transmitted on behalf of the 45th Bilderberg Meeting.
Atlanta, June 13 - The 45th Bilderberg Meeting will be held near Atlanta,
Georgia, USA, from June 12-15, 1997, to discuss the Atlantic Relationship in a
Time of Change. Among others the Conference will discuss NATO, China, Islam,
EMU, Energy, Growth, Corporate Governance.
About 120 participants from North America and Europe will attend the
discussions. The meeting is private in order to encourage frank and open
discussion.
Bilderberg takes its name from the Hotel where the first meeting took place in
May 1954. That meeting grew out of the concern on both sides of the Atlantic
that the industrialized democracies in Europe and North America were not working
together as closely as they should on matters of critical importance.
It was felt regular, off-the-record discussions would contribute to a better
understanding of the complex forces and major trends affecting Western nations.
What is unique about Bilderberg as a forum is:
1. The broad cross-section of leading citizens, in and out of government, that
are assembled for nearly three days of purely informal discussion about topics
of current concern especially in the fields of foreign affairs and the
international economy.
2. The strong feeling among participants that in view of the differing attitudes
and experiences of their nations, there is a continuous, clear need to develop
an understanding in which these concerns can be accommodated.
3. The privacy of the meetings, which have no purpose other than to allow
participants to speak their minds openly and freely.
At the meetings, no resolutions are proposed, no votes taken, and no policy
statements issued. In short, Bilderberg is a flexible and informal international
leadership-forum in which different viewpoints can be expressed and mutual
understanding enhanced.
To ensure full discussion, individuals representing a wide range of political
and economic points of view are invited.
Two-thirds of the participants come from Europe and the remainder from the
United States and Canada. Within this framework, on average about one-third are
from the government sector and the remaining two-thirds from a variety of fields
including finance, industry, labour, education and the media.
Participants are solely invited for their knowledge, experience and standing and
with reference to the topics on the agenda.
All participants attend Bilderberg in a private and not in an official capacity.
Participants have agreed not to give interviews to the press during the meeting.
In contacts with the media after the conference it is an established rule no
attribution should be made to individual participants of what was discussed
during the meeting. There will be no press conference.
A list of participants is appended.
