Check the links between UNESCO / ROTARY CLUB / LIONS CLUB / CLUB UNESCO and lot's ot other MASSONIC

The BBC (World) were showing a programme last month (JULY) that also went into the up and coming demise of the Danube, they put it down to EU directives. As the EU is expanding in that direction I guess the EU will be only two glad to help destroy the area ..
