Gruppo Bilderberg 2019: Lilli Gruber, Matteo Renzi e Stefano Feltri tra gli ospiti…
Marcello Pamio
Ogni anno, tra maggio e giugno, il Gruppo Bilderberg
si riunisce in qualche prestigiosissimo albergo europeo per decidere le
sorti del globo, dal punto di vista economico, finanziario e politico.
Il «Bilderberg Group» è una conferenza “non ufficiale”
che prevede circa 130 invitati, tra personalità influenti e potenti
dell’economia, media, politica, tecnologia, banchieri, intelligence,
Segretari di stato, primi ministri, ecc. Tutti in forma privata, dicono.
Il nome deriva dal loro primo incontro che risale al 1954, avvenuto nell’Hotel de Bilderberg in Oosterbeek nei Paesi Bassi.
Si tratta di una creatura della Guerra Fredda, o per meglio dire, del RIIA britannico, del Royal Institute of International Affaire,
un istituto nato il 30 maggio 1919 a Londra, come capitolo locale della
Round Table fondata invece con proiezioni transnazionali.
Il RIAA è noto anche come Chatam House, con sede al
numero 10 di St. James Square a Londra, nel 1979 contava su un Consiglio
di 33 persone alla guida di circa 3000 membri.
L’idea della nascita del Gruppo Bilderberg venne a Joseph Retinger,
che al tempo si occupava della crescita dell’anti-americanismo in
Europa Occidentale. Personaggio chiave della politica mondiale per quasi
mezzo secolo, Retinger manteneva strette relazioni con il Colonnello House, con la potentissima famiglia ebraica Warburg, con i banchieri internazionali Lehman, Baruch. Era anche membro della Pilgrim’s Society e del CFR statunitense (il corrispondente del RIIA negli Stati Uniti, detto anche «governo ombra»).
L’influenza di Joseph Retinger sui circoli mondialisti era tale da meritarsi il soprannome di «His Grey Eminence», Sua Eminenza Grigia!
Lo scopo iniziale del Bilderberg era quello di rinforzare l’unità dei
Paesi Occidentali contro la «minaccia comunista», ma poi con il collasso
del Patto di Varsavia, il gruppo, con a capo l’America, si è
concentrato sul rafforzamento e sviluppo della globalizzazione.
Dall’11 settembre 2001, a seguito degli attacchi su New York, è
diventato di primaria importanza lo «scontro tra civiltà» o «scontro di
religioni».
Quest’anno la nazione scelta è la Svizzera, per la precisione all’Hotel Montreux Palace di Vaud, a Montreux una cittadina affacciata sul lago di Ginevra, e il periodo va dal 30 maggio al 2 giugno.
Non poteva mancare ovviamente Lilli Gruber, la «rossa col gomito appoggiato» (come la definiva Giorgio Gaber) ospite fisso da molto tempo, ma la grandissima novità è che tra gli invitati c’è Matteo Renzi!
Avete letto bene, il Mr. Bean della politica italiana è stato invitato
alla riunione, e questo fa ben sperare, perché se sono arrivati a
invitare nullità politiche simili, allora il Gruppo è spacciato e ha i
giorni contati!
Gli argomenti chiave della discussione saranno i seguenti:
- Un ordine strategico stabile
- Cosa dopo l’Europa?
- Cambiamenti climatici e sostenibilità
- Cina
- Russia
- Il futuro del capitalismo
- Brexit
- L’etica dell’intelligenza artificiale
- La militarizzazione dei social media
- L’importanza dello spazio
- Cyber terrorismo
Sotto l’elenco completo di tutti i partecipanti, ma in sintesi, come
ogni anno i media non mancano mai, e infatti tra gli invitati figurano
personaggi del «Financial Times», «The New York Times», «The Washington Post», «Bloomberg», «The Economist», «L’Echo». Per l’Italia Stefano Feltri, vice-caporedattore de «Il Fatto Quotidiano»…
Tra i pezzi da novanta il Segretario Generale della NATO, il CEO della
Microsoft, il vice direttore della Roche, il CEO della Goldman Sachs e
di altre banche e assicurazioni, il presidente del World Economic Forum,
il governatore della Banca d’Inghilterra e addirittura il consulente
capo del Presidente degli Stati Uniti d’America!
Il tutto questo, riuscite ad immaginare Matteo Renzi che tra i corridoi
dell’albergo cerca di far ridere il decrepito Henry Kissinger mentre lo
spinge sulla sua sedia a rotelle? Oppure mentre cerca di comunicare in
un anglotoscano da film comico, con il direttore della Sicurezza
Nazionale americano?
Queste sono le cose che rendono stupenda la vita….
