Grangemouth UK oil strike & bosses tactical AGM in USA details

Green Syndicalist | 27.04.2008 12:40 | Globalisation | Workers' Movements | World

they will be discussing tactics about grange mouth & most will be pressing Brown to crackdown www.trilateral.org
We must all support workers at Grangemouth leading fight for better pensions &safety, it is making people think about conserving fuel.
Renationalise, cooperativise& start drilling geothermal shafts rather than oil boreholes. Most rich corporations & billionaires pay little or no tax, in fact they are often subsidised, whilst most tax dosh comes from people & cooperatives.
Fuel should be rationed at pumps & at terminals by worker cooperatives for those that need it & not gas guzzlers.
This is uncopyrighted at the moment, to those in the BBC & ITV do a good job with this information & you will get our support too.

"Is it coincidental French leader Valerie destaing set up G8 a year after the Trilateral Commission was formed encompassing the same countries, he later joined but was too minor to be part of the corporate politburo with Kissinger & David Rockefeller"
Robin Ludd

Message to Trilateral Dragons Den come on,
cooperate, before our planet dies!,
Untested unsafe "magic bullets" will only make things worse!


Respect to whoever can find & photograph-report on the corporate"elite" who control G8 now meeting in private in Washington dc25-28april. Theres millions of people & not many luxury hotels in washington with golf courses where it can be held. Do not be afraid Ive personally been to protest at these conferences before, their security is no way as big as G8's, they like privacy. Unfortunately I cannot make it due to work& finances.
The power of Trilateral leaders was shown recently with takeover of Bear Stern by Morgan chase which has control of Visa International led by David Rockefeller who had until recently chief shares in Exxon Mobil just part of his families empire. If only Visa international was a true cooperative & member of the ICA would we be in this crisis?
Thanks to all other universalists & millions of cooperative workers like Tony Gosling for making this article happen.For the reclaimation of democracy

Trilaterals will this year be focusing on controlling global capital, invading Iran & nuclear policies. Whilst their companies seem to encourage nanotechnology proliferation investing billions in a technology that has the potential to destroy the entire universe as we know it according to scientists.

Holly edited the groundbreaking book on Trilateral commission & global management,1980
with Takano Hajime, Kai Bird & others.

The concept of a influential forum for the world's major industrialized democracies emerged following the OPEC oil crisis and subsequent global recession. The Supranational Trilateral Commission "lobbying group" is a private organization,the top of an oligarchical empire founded at the initiative of David Rockefeller, who pushed the idea of including Japan as an extension of the Bilderberg meetings, but was he was rebuffed by the its NATO members. Along with Zbigniew Brzezinski and a few others from the Brookings Institution, Council on Foreign Relations & the Ford Foundation, he convened initial meetings from which the organization grew. Trilateral commission was founded in 1973,the G8 in 1975,its first executive committee meeting held in Tokyo, October 1973 . Its members come mainly from the G8 nations elite like Mark Moody-stuart,Anglo American Corp with a peppering of other nations elites,regulat attendees power doesnt stop at one electoral term, it is a oligarchical dictatorship of a small ruling class, olderer the soviet politburo.Annual meetings consist of 300–350 private citizens from Europe, Pacific Asia (Asia & Oceania)& North America, it exists to promote closer political and economic cooperation between these areas under USA's hegemony & corporate politburo.
Some figures say participants directly control at least 60% of global wealth this estimate was done before even more recent expansions, the Bilderberg 33%. Its top figures & controllers are known in financial circles as the "Masters of Universe",their PR transforms genocidal Robber Barons transformed into philanthropists.

"In fact, after the 1960's, the Trilateral Commission held its first meeting(s) to figure out how to deal with the wreckage of Liberal capitalism, and to make sure that nothing like the world youth protests of the 1960's ever took place again. The Black Power revolts in the metropole, the anti-colonial protests, and the Vietnam anti-war movement had shaken them to the core. The leading countries of Europe, Japan, Canada, and the USA met in 1973 to form the Trilateral Commission, and this was the first major international capitalist criminal cartel, which birthed all the groups we are fighting now: WTO, IMF, and others." www.ainfos.ca/01/mar/ainfos00141.html Lorenzo Komboa Ervin ex black panther/anarchist

"The Trilateral Commission has issued one major book-length report, namely, The Crisis of Democracy(Michel Crozier, Samuel Huntington& Joji Watanuki 1975). Given the intimate connections between the Commission and the Carter Administration, the study is worth careful attention, as an indication of the thinking that may well lie behind its domestic policies, as well as the policies undertaken in other industrial democracies in the coming years.The effective operation of a democratic political system usually requires some measure of apathy& noninvolvement on the part of some individuals& groups." Naom Chomsky.
www.chomsky.info/books/priorities01.htm

Chomsky argued the lie of corporate democracy is shown primarily by the Trilateral Commission who had 19 top members of US government including Carter as members straight after its formation.He does not seem to mention the Trilateral Oligarchy again,I understand as an ancestor of an Austrian who left in1930's to fight Nazis ith allied forces, the strong rumours that trilateral is a"zionist conspiracy" pushes many scholars away, the main argument in the "trilateral zionist thesis" made by nazi racial fascists is that leaders of the corporate oligarchy like Rockefeller& Kissinger are Jewish.David Rockefeller is a Methodist like Bush, as is Dr Death Kissinger the Trilateral/USA chief intellectual & writer of National Security Council documents on global depopulation, that Bush Senior admitted were a top priority.

91yr old David Rockefeller is their "Emperor Ming"; Under his stewardship the Chase bank spread internationally and became a central pillar in the world's financial system, including being the leading bank for the United Nations. It has a global network of correspondent banks that has been estimated to number about 50,000, the largest of any bank in the world. A notable achievement was the setting up of the first branch of an American bank at One Karl Marx Square, near the Kremlin, in the then Soviet Union, in 1973. This was also the year Rockefeller travelled to China, resulting in his bank becoming the National Bank of China's first correspondent bank in the US.
In speeches David Rockefeller has thanked the owners & controllers of Washington Post, NBC etc for not mentioning the Trilateral Commission in its early years.From President Carter all US presidents have been groomed by it,George Bush snr was among the founding members of the Tri-lateral Commission, Bush junior has links from his fathers,Cheneys & Rumsfelds participation.
Wants Pax Americana & world split into the three areas under US hegemony, North&S.American superhighway & trade agreements,until 1999 had major financial influence on Exxon Mobil which was one just one part of the vast Rockefeller Empire, now dissolved into Trusts & political influence, loves beetles,appropriate as they are possibly 1 species that 1st billionaire & global corp John d1889 $40bill,imagine that today?

Halliburton directors, C.J. Silas and L.S. Eagleburger, have both been members of the Trilateral Commission.68 According to Senator Barry Goldwater, the Trilateral Commission 'is international and is intended to be the vehicle for multinational consolidation of the commercial and banking interests by seizing control of the political government of the US.
lee Raymond CEO Exxon Mobil & Bill clinton,Melinda Gates have all attended.

Please note, besides their responsibility for organising illegal wars it is illegal for members of government in many nations to attend private undeclared & un minuted meetings.Many attendees only attend one year or on a token basis from non G8 nations & are manipulated to further the agenda of the core group regular attendees, who meet regularly in secret throughout the year. Regular core group attendess are at the top & others known are highlighted, underlined are members of Belgium government & Germany.Members known to have committed war crimes are highlighted & in italliccs. As I live in the UK, British & Irish attendees & members are at the top, the rest are in alphabetic order.

A quote from David Rockefeller's autobiography 'Memoirs' - 6-11-6: "For more than a century, ideological extremists at either end of the political spectrum have seized upon well-publicized incidents to attack the Rockefeller family for the inordinate influence they claim we wield over American political and economic institutions. Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one world, if you will. If that's the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it."

Anthony Suttons has written some facts but his analysis needs taking with a pinch of salt
G8 is a "democratic" sham,its a trap & a distraction. Check Stephen Gills Trilateral commission & corporate hegemony for better analysis, though real analysis by international relations departments is sadly lacking & needed.

Recent financial article copylefted by Rinf news
www.rinf.com/alt-news/new-world-order/current-financial-crisis-was-topic-of-bilderberg-2006/2277/
Research showing clear links Trilateral commission is chief private club controlling G8.
www.zimbio.com/The+G8/articles/4/G8+Bilderberg+Trilateral+Commission

G8 is a "democratic" sham, they are just administrators. Security was not so scarey as I have seen at many G8 protests. They know that most of anticapitalists have been distracted for many, many years.This is a shame as independent,anarchosyndicalist union the Industrial Workers of the World led millions against the Rockefellers & Robberbarons during the first world war period, they are growing again though so watch this space www.iww.org.uk.
The IWW specifically led people to protest against the Rockefellers with 10,000s at their Potianco compound. Today the Rockefellers hide behind democracy, its time we reclaimed our world.

Bilderberg the twin group was set up initially by a ex ss member of the dutch royal family & has many nazi links, though it & Trilateral commission are really Orwellian.

For anyone opposed to this oil war, or anyone green or red, this strike is important. It provides great opportunities.

The greens have been hitting individual garages, this is a chance to hit every petrol station.

For the reds, a secondary stirke by either dock workers or tanker drivers would be the equivalent of a general strike.

I tried to organise a pre-war blockade of the five refineries. People wouldn't go for it. Some didn't like the tactic simply because the right-wing hauliers and farmers had used it successfully. Some thought it was bound to fail because the police would kick the shit out of us, but I had taken that into account, there are ways around that. Others said it would be counterproductive, that the peace movement was succeeding and that the press would blame an oil block on the whole movement.

It was a missed opportunity back then but for the next week it has been made worth considering again.

great idea, Thunderbirds Go

Great idea, I tried the same, got same blocs mainly from SWP, I bet both type of tanker drivers would be up for a tactical withdrawal of labour. We did one in nottingham with tripods & back up team, got abit hairy though we had support from biffa recycling workers & 90% who were happy. Only a few NF types tried to break the blockade, but they backed down when pushed & reminded of AFA-ANTIFA.
The last oil strike wasnt just bosses & right wing,there were alot of bikers& truckers involved who also support us when shit hits the fan,
Thunderbirds go!
