AFP Editor Reports On Secret Gathering Of Trilats in Ireland
By James P. Tucker, Jr.
DUBLIN, Ireland— AFP has learned that the advance staff
of the Trilateral Commission (TC), appearing here at the Four Seasons resort in Dublin on
May 6, appeared gloomy. In other years, they had shown a more festive mood as they
prepared for the arrival of 300 high officials of Europe and North America and
international financiers to plan the global economy behind closed doors.
An economic meeting in Brussels is just concluding, making it a convenient cover story for
U.S. officials who want to attend the TC meeting without public knowledge.
Such summits, either just before or after TC and Bilderberg group meetings, are routine.
Bilderberg will meet June 4-7 at the Dolce Hotel in Sitges, Spain, about 20 miles from
Barcelona.
Senior TC staffers, who carry the papers, not the suitcases, were overheard saying the
British Petroleum (BP) oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico off the Louisiana coast would have
to be a “major and ticklish topic” during the session. That’s because Big
Oil is a major player at the TC and Bilderberg meetings. BP will have to pay for the spill
with big bucks at a time when the TC is planning giant hikes in U.S. gasoline costs.
“It’s like a dog trying to bark while biting his own tail,” one said,
somewhat irreverently.
Unfortunately, the BP disaster is likely to motivate these globalists to force prices up
even more. The latest data from the Energy Information Association, the statistical arm of
the Energy Department, shows that, as of mid-March, U.S. refiners were operating at 81
percent of capacity. There are 6 million barrels per day being deliberately left in the
ground by the world’s oil producers. There’s nothing like a generated shortage
to push prices up.
Meanwhile, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries is not calling for
enforcement of production quotas.
The TC was created in 1973 by David Rockefeller, among others, initially to link together
the interests of the super-rich of North America, Europe and Japan. Along with the Council
on Foreign Relations, the Atlantic Council, the Bilderberg group and related groups and
think tanks, the TC helps forge long-term plans and policies, apart from elected
officials. (Issue # 20, May 19, 2010) http://www.americanfreepress.net/html/trilats_in_ireland_221.html
