Bilderberg attendees – about 150 of the world’s most influential globalists who meet behind closed doors once a year – should be more transparent about what is discussed there. At least that is the message of one summit attendee, a Big Government-minded lawmaker and sustainable-development zealot from Holland, who emerged from the shadowy conference today for a rare conversation with protesters and journalists assembled outside.
In the early afternoon, as citizens and reporters were starting to converge outside the Bilderberg summit surrounded by throngs of police, Dutch Parliamentary leader Diederik Samsom (shown) popped up on the other side of the fence with a man who appeared to be a security guard. The protesters and the press had already been corralled into a fenced-in parking lot. Still, there were multiple opportunities for questions through the wire.
Samsom happily responded, spending much of his brief time outside the hotel explaining the purported rationale behind the paranoia and obsession with secrecy among Bilderberg attendees. “If there is a camera in there, you know, you behave different with the camera and I don’t want people to behave different, so I think it’s a good thing that for once you have three hours in a meeting,” the Dutch parliamentarian claimed. “But I do agree that after such a meeting, people should go out, like me, and tell you what we discussed.”
Indeed, the environmentalist and chief of the Socialist International-aligned Dutch Labor Party tried hard to make the secretive meeting seem like a mere discussion forum. Furious citizens outside, though, were not buying it.
From decrying what globalists often refer to as the “New World Order” and lambasting government tyranny to slamming the secret meeting and blasting genetic engineering, enraged citizens from across the political spectrum shouted questions and complaints at the grinning attendee.
